dantheclammanWhy you shouldn't use Brave Browser
VeedemJust use Firefox.
nocturne213I bounced between the two for years, i guess i am going back to Firefox full time.
The only reason I haven’t switched to Firefox from Chrome fully is because for some reason Firefox for Android still doesn’t have tabs for large screen devices. Mozilla says it’s not a priority. 🤷
Yes, it really sucks. I am in the same boat. Samsung Internet on my tablet; really wish I had FF on it.
So use edge
Its chrome but at least its not brave, and the adblocker(which is off by default…) is decent enough
RedjardIf you think the things brave has done are bad, go read through the list of things microsoft has done. You really don’t want them to ever have a browser again, and certainly don’t want to personally use it.
No1Firefox for Android removing the ability to open local html files killed it for me.
If that’s your only gripe with it, you can still access them by using one of the simple web servers available running inside Termux, that will also allow you to avoid CORS related problems, in fact it is the currently suggested method on MDN
Yeah, nah. I’ve already got enough unnecessary services with Android.
Thanks for the workaround, though.
I mean you’d be running the server only when actually needed, but I understand it is a bit of a hassle to do every time as well
🇵🇸 Free Palestine 🇵🇸Why did they remove it though? I was surprised too when I found out I needed to run local webserver to access local html files
It was because of ‘security’, which was never explained. And it doesn’t make much sense when other browsers can and do alow it. I’ll see if I can dig up some historical links if I remember tomorrow.
