    Spotify shouldn’t be on this list… They exploit artists and platform joe rogans horseshit for profit

      Qobuz is great though, they also provide lossless music which Spotify still don’t.

    Why Waterfox over LibreWolf? I have only used LibreWolf, which is my 99%-of-the-time browser, and I am curious.

    Why not use something like Matrix (Element) as a messenger alternative?

    Again, add Matrix or xmpp instead of just Signal & Disroot as well in the email section

    Both Tuta and Proton have a free tier for their email. Also, I think Infomaniak’s kmail might be an even better replacement for the typical email/cloud providers than the aforementioned, for normies at least.

    Orion is not a paid browser. Kagi, however, is a paid search engine, and Orion was made by the Kagi team. The browser is completely free and is in all Apple OSs (coming to Linux soon) and gathers absolutely no data. And the browser comes with no search engine chosen by default so it isn’t really an ad for Kagi.

    I personally think it’s amazing especially how you can have both Firefox and Chrome extensions on it. Its only issue is it being proprietary.

      Orion was really well made. It is still beta, but when it is more stable, I’ll give it a second go! 100% recommended.

    After switching your search engine, hop into your European time-machine and go back to February to continue this guide.

      Vivaldi is faster than Brave on my computer and integrates email integration. Thus deinstalled thunderbird and Brave on my MintLinux. Many thanks for this hint.

      It’s also chromium based. But other than that it’s european and a pretty cool browser!

      Well, certainly not nobody, I hear it mentioned quite often on the internet! Just make sure to keep talking about it, if you want it to get more popular :D

    can anybody explain why people hate on Waterfox? I’m using it for over a year now and it’s been great so far!

      I think it’s about none of Firefox forks being remotely capable of evolving on their own. So any large scale push to leave Firefox for any of these forks might only hurt Firefox which would in turn hurt its forks.

      My insignificant opinion on the matter is that it’s great to have different flavors of Firefox that might be better suited for you, but it doesn’t appear to lead to a solution to the underlying issue.

        thanks for that answer so we should all continue supporting firefox, as it helps it’s forks too? i mean they are still a non profit but they have been doing weird stuff lately…

      why people hate on Waterfox?

      it used to be owned by an ad company, so I guess some people just don’t want to put their trust back in yet

      I would be more interested in why they didn’t go with LibreWolf?

          Breaks almost every site on the settings I’ve given it, by my design – at least, until I grant the site some permissions. You don’t get to run code on my browser unless I SAY you can!

    Is Waterfox the most recommended Firefox alternative nowadays after the recent Firefox controversy?

    Also not sure I would call Proton privacy focused. I still use it, but they have been rating out an environment activist to French authorities before.
