    I was using the addons I need on my Android Firefox. That part was great. I think most of my issues were more due to the browser engine lacking behind on Android and just feeling janky compared to how smooth and well functioning Chromium based browsers were.

    I’ve tried a few Firefox forks on Android here and there and it was usually a few improvements here and there but overall the experience was similar.

    A big recent issue was that Firefox initially loaded for a really long time so doing a quick search was anmoying the first time I launched it. Another issue was how often Firefox was killed in the background. That’s partly due to Xiaomi and Android, but for whatever reason even mega bloated chromium browers don’t do that. Then bunch of small issues like browser theme not changing with the rest of the system or changing partially that suddenly I had white on white or black on black and I had to kill Firefox to fix the issue. The Android experience has always been janky for me with FF and I’ve used it for idk as long as I remember it being on Android

    Vivaldi mail requires you to be an “active community member” in the Vivaldi community

    Tuta and Proton are a no-go for me for free tier (or at all) allowing me to use third party software for their email. I like to use Thunderbird and Vivaldi’s email client to combine my inboxes. Unfortunately that doesn’t work with Proton and Tuta.












  • I’m not against proper age verifications as such, it would be like carding people in a store or a bar. But I just haven’t seen an implementation of it that isn’t prone to being a privacy nightmare and surveillance state shit.

    I know there’s some systems that generate a token that verify that you are 18 and you give that to the site, so neither side directly meet so to say. The site knows only that you have a valid token for being 18 and the app or service you use to generate the token knows just that you wanted to token for something. I think Spain was figuring out a system like that.
