This might have been discussed to death by now, unfortunately I couldn’t find any discussion on it on Lemmy. Though I would love to be corrected on that!
How does an always on incognito Chromium with uBlock Origin on medium mode (and other hardening/privacy settings enabled) compare to Brave (with e.g. Privacy Guides’ recommended settings) with respect to security and privacy on Linux[1]?

Thanks in advance!
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.

Could you elaborate on what specific websites? Firefox i had 0 issues, librewolf has to get some tweaks has few incompatibilities like netflix etc…
Google cloud consoles require chrome for IAP attention. That is a concrete example of Firefox not working on a site.
I use Firefox, but I also know it has its issues. Don’t be a zealot.
those aren’t Firefox issues. it’s google purposefully using chromium only features and not well-supported web standards.
Page won’t load in Firefox, making it an issue. I don’t care what the root cause is, and also I already knew all of that.
Yeahhhh i could have guesses dthat XD
Just a few days ago I tried to pay for flight tickets on flypgs.com. Multiple attempts on Firefox didn’t work, while the first attempt on a Chromium-based one did. It might have been a fluke, but every so often issues like these do happen. And for some reason switching the browser does bear a positive result. YMMV though.
Best to do in that case to complain over the email contact. That they fix that shit.
Yes, that is definitely easier and more effective than opening a different browser for a couple of minutes /s
