As the title states, either these browsers are nothing but full of trackers and ads or they are so locked down that they are basically not functional. Why can’t I find a browser that is just a freaking browser but with no BS???

      Dude! Right?! It works so well while remaining pretty trustworthy. I added Privacy badger and port authority at the recommendation of EFF and Firefox extension store ratings, just to have it that much more secure. I especially love blocking Lexis Nexis port scanning!

      I tried Waterfox a few months back and had loads of issues with it, it just didn’t seem ready. I must try it again. using Fennec at the minute.

      On a separate note, does anyone know if there’s a reason that you can’t view pages preloaded when offline anymore?

      I had damaged my SIM before going to the shop the other day, loaded up a website with a recipe and ingredients on the page before I left using home WiFi.

      When I got to the store, I couldn’t view the page, it wanted to load again…
