🌐 Still using Chrome in 2026?

Chrome sees EVERYTHING:
Every search. Every site. Every click.
All sent to Google 24/7. 📡

I tested 4 browsers so you don't have to:

🔴 Chrome — tracks everything. Avoid.
🟡 Vivaldi — better, but not fully open
🟢 Cromite — FOSS, de-Googled Chrome
🦊 IronFox — the privacy king. My daily.

Ich möchte eure Arbeit unterstützen und mir ein Abo holen. Jedoch bekomme ich auf #Ironfox und #Vanadium eine nichtssagende Fehlermeldung nachdem ich mich mit dem erstellten Account angemeldet habe.

Ist das bekannt? Blockt ihr VPNs?

Sadly, the new design^Wabomination from #Mozilla landed to the new release of #IronFox (148.0.1) on the Android  

Instead of damn simple and concise main menu, I forced to see a gigantic panel now. Like I don't have fingers — I have a ten sausages instead.

And rounded things, rounded things everywhere! Because this is a redesign in sake of redesign — it is not customizable and I can't switch back to rectangular things in the settings  

Luckily, at least for now, I'm still able to revert this shitty designer vomit. Because you know, I'm not so young dragon, so I remember the eons when it was valuable — do not break user habits by constantly changing the UI layout and UI elements (read the fucking Palm Design Guidelines, for example).

The recipe:
1) Go to: IronFox main menu — Settings — About IronFox
2) Tap a lot of times to the big IronFox logo. The text "Debug menu enabled" should appear on the screen for a few seconds
3) Go to: IronFox main menu — Settings — Secret Settings
4) Disable the next items: "Enable Menu Redesign", "Enable Composable Toolbar"

Done! You are free from "new UI", which forcefeeded to users of Firefox (and forks) by Mozilla (again)

The new Ironfox UI seems pretty alright. I've been using Firefox on Android like idk, late 2019. Only switched to a fork like Mull 4 years ago then moved to Ironfox when that stuff got discontinued.

It's been a long long while anyway and I think it was about time to see something different too.

I can't seem swipe from tab to tab on the new UI though but I'll adapt I guess. It's no big deal. I'll prolly just miss it

Ich bin so froh, daß meine Frau jeden Blödsinn von mir so mitmacht. Für sie war es normal, ein #smartphone zu kaufen, und die Apps zu nutzen, die darauf vorinstalliert waren. Ohne sich einen Kopf zu machen, daß es Alternativen gibt.

Seit 2 Jahren nutzt sie mein ausrangiertes Pixel 4a mit #iodé 7.2 das auf dem Stand Android 16 ist.
