Mozilla is shitting the bed and pretending it's a gourmet dinner.

All they had to do was build a decent web browser, and they failed.

In the long term, we have the @servo project to look forward to: an independent browser engine spun off from Mozilla Research, and currently stewarded by the Linux Foundation Europe.

It's not usable as a day-to-day browser yet, but it hopefully will be a worthy alternative to Chromium and Gecko in the future (2026 roadmap, please? 🥺)

In the meantime, we have Mullvad Browser, @Waterfox, and @librewolf to keep us company ❤️

Konform Browser 140.9.0-100 has been released!

See release notes for details.

https://codeberg.org/konform-browser/source/releases/tag/140.9.0.100

Besides latest security fixes from #mozilla there is a bunch of updates from #konform #browser. To name a few:

- Reorganized Security Settings with new global configuration for WASM, JIT, WebRTC, WebGPU, Geolocation, DOM Push, etc...

- Security Settings also expose UI for enabling First-Party Isolation (same behavior as Tor Browser) and tweaking Enhanced Tracking Protection.

- Bundled depropped Multi-Account Containers allows configuring per-container proxies and makes container tabs part of core browser experience without having to install telemetry-laden addons.

- Profile Import now supports importing profiles from #firefox and compatible #browsers (#firefox_esr, #floorp, #ironfox, #librewolf, #midori, #palemoon, #waterfox, #zenbrowser)

- Spoofing of Navigator.sendBeacon.

- #privacy improvements and defense-in-depth

- Various bugfixes and minor improvements

I use #ZenBrowser where I have vertical tabs (on the left), and I use the #Bitwarden addon which is set to display in the sidebar on the right (so it stays open when I'm logging into sites, etc.).

I recently tried #Waterfox as I've heard good things about it, but it seems my setup in Zen isn't possible here... Vertical tabs display in the sidebar, so I can't separate tabs and Bitwarden to the left and right of the screen respectively.

Am I missing something, or does Waterfox not support this?

@javi

Just a reminder that Waterfox and Librewolf exist, and that they both strip out Mozilla's telemetry and AI crap out of Firefox, and maintain privacy respecting browsers based on it.

Para mí fue todo lo contrario: tan pronto como apareció la función, activé la barra lateral en #Firefox y #LibreWolf , ya que me resulta más cómodo ver las pestañas abiertas como una lista de texto

De hecho, adopté #Waterfox como mi navegador favorito precisamente porque ofrecía pestañas verticales como característica nativa antes de Firefox

Y usé la extensión #VerticalTabsReloaded durante mucho tiempo

Dear @Waterfox devs,

You are, once again, my Firefox fork of choice. Floorp had it's chance. It's good, but it includes all the Firefox AI crap. I'm sorry I doubted you Waterfox.

Sincerely,
A regular web browser user

@alsternerd np.

Bei #RapsberryPiOS-Images ist das in deren.#Chromium drin, sollte aber auch für #Firefox, #Waterfox & #TorBrowser existieren…

Update: This might have just been a fluke. It only happened on 1/2 boxes I'm testing Waterfox on, both on flatpak.

Ok, the fact that #Waterfox wipes your history by default when closing is REALLY annoying.

Don't do that.

@nikitonsky to me that reads like extortion and blackmail and woukd get them yerted instantly in favour of @Waterfox if not @torproject / #TorBrowser...
