For Android users seeking a privacy-focused browser, Privacy Guides recommends Mull:
Mull is a privacy oriented and deblobbed Android browser based on Firefox. Compared to Firefox, it offers much greater fingerprinting protection out of the box, and disables JavaScript Just-in-Time (JIT) compilation for enhanced security. It also removes all proprietary elements from Firefox, such as replacing Google Play Services references.
Mull enables many features upstreamed by the Tor uplift project using preferences from Arkenfox. Proprietary blobs are removed from Mozilla’s code using the scripts developed for Fennec F-Droid.
Safari’s bottom tab bar is the best UX I’ve seen on mobile.
I can achieve most browsers interactions from my thumb without repositioning my hand!
Firefox mobile looks like a dev opened it in an android simulator googled “hi” then checked the box “available for mobile”
P.S. Please give me a reason why you downvote me
The downvotes are because your comment isn’t really relevant to the topic
You’re being downvotes because it’s irrelevant and you’re claiming a feature that also exists in Firefox is the reason your preferred browser is better. It makes no sense.
Neat! Just gave it a try and it’s much better now, one issue I miss is you can’t swipe (left right) on the address bar to go to the next/prev tab
FF Nightly has Safari layout since v130. Use that if you like Safari but are on Android.
Until Firefox mobile has a functional home button in the toolbar then I don’t care what the fuck the do because I won’t be using it. Dumb as fuck not to have it.
What is your home page that you need access to it so conveniently?
Besides, new tab can be set to a webpage instead of a blank tab
And you can’t customize where that home button does, making it useless. You can not set it to a specific URL, I want to set it to the dashboard page that I selfhost that shows me status of different things I want to see, gives me access to all my services, and has all my favorite links on it.
The same button is also there in stock Firefox. Im not sure what the OP was on about
That home button is not able to be set to a specific URL making it useless to me.
Usually people complain about removing it, don’t understand what op meant

I can’t set it to a custom page, like the dashboard page of my server which gives me access to all my services that I selfhost, and favorite links.
Mobile version of firefox is kinda sucks compared to other browser with chromium based like chrome, microsoft edge, and kiwi browser.
Personally I’m using kiwi browser as my daily browser because it’s support extension feature 👍
I disagree, as a Firefox mobile daily driver I will confirm it has extensions. Dark mode reader and ublock origin, does one need anything else?
Yeah I’m using kiwi browser as my daily driver browser because of extension feature, compared to other chromium based browser.
For firefox, It also has extension feature but the reason why I don’t use it because of the auto reload bug and some sites are somehow broken when viewed with firefox mobile.
*But for firefox desktop, I think it’s good for me
I swapped from uBlock to AdNauseum. It’s a fork of uBlock which also “clicks” some specific ads in order to cost companies money for running them lol
the only thing i wish firefox/fennec mobile had was a native tablet ui (like chrome). :/
Mull has a lot of weird issues, like being the only mobile browser I tested my website on that used the front camera rather than the back camera.
I can’t think of a situation in which they’d ever want to use the front camera, since it’s an AR project, but I might just have to make it an option to fix weird issues like this.
Why did you add an ad for Mull when your title and article is about Firefox?
