How about testing IronFox a “Fork” of Mull?
https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox
Does anyone know about the team in this project? I’m concerned that development stalls after a little while when things get hard or they get tired of it.
For me, customizing a new browser is a heavy lift so I don’t usually jump headfirst into browsers without first knowing a little about the team’s background.
Idk. It’s the second release and they pushed upstream firefox 134 and Phoenix.js instead of arkenfox which sounds really good.
Btw and nobody could resist that arcticion icon from IronFox…
The maintainer of IronFox and Phoenix.js are the same person.
See this git history: https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/commits/dev?ref_type=HEADS
Oh yeah, makes sense, reminds me of how I discovered IronFox by searching content about phoenix.js
They changed some fundamentale that werde used for and in Mull so I do not recommend it yet
I’m interested on what changed that make it differ from Mull in a non recommended way. Are you referring to their 1st MR? where they outline:
I understand Mull was using arkenfox which is sort of the go-to reference, and now ironfox move to phoenix. The safe browsing is the same approach Librewolf follows, though I don’t like their comment on a proxy. I don’t like their choice of the brave search engine, but I always replace that with searxng tweaked a bit.
The MR doc doesn’t look too terrible, but don’t know about the changes themselves.
I’ve heard of ironfox but it doesn’t look easy to install on Android right now
I simply add the link posted before into obtainium
There’s also an F-Droid repo
There are apk files right there in the releases
