For a time it was Fennic for addon support but now that Firefox mobile has addons are there better alternatives? Those of you on android, what’s your go to?

It would be great to hear the implication of that

Here you can find a good explanation on that.

It would still need an Android system/kernel exploit to further escape the system sandbox. It is an important hardening feature, but the browser isn’t completely insecure without it

So what? You can go back to firefox for that reasoning unless you are a very very high target

Did you read the sentence before that? A malicious website could read data from other websites(opened in different tabs), and also passwords stored in the browser, etc… There is no additional system exploit needed for that

Yes. It doesn’t apply to me. I am no very high target.

What @silent_squirrel@feddit.de mentioned does not require a targetted attack.
