You can’t just say that FF on Android is less secure and not give any sources for that claim.

I mean, you can, but that makes your claim not have any value.

I wasn’t trying to argue about, or even educate people, on the specifics. I was just making an objective statement of fact. Anyone is free to do their own research to validate my assertion, disprove it, or just ignore it.

But, okay, I can provide a good entry point into the topic with a good write-up on Android browsers from the developer of a security focused ROM, DivestOS:

https://divestos.org/pages/browsers

*He’s also the developer of two good Android hardened browsers: Mulch (Chromium) and Mull (FF/Gecko).

Edit: I also recommend NOT using Google’s official Android Chrome browser, just forks that are based around Chromium e.g. Mulch and Cromite.

The grapheneOS team also discourages using FF android but I still use it (well, Fennec). Add-ons are a must have and would never use a chromium browser.
