(I reposted this bc some applications were missing.) I had to install some apps because of school. Btw, can you say improvements that I can make? I can’t install anything that isn’t from playstore. Edit: Duolingo is now just a PWA

I’m on android
Try IronFox or Fennec (Firefox forks), both are privacy focused and aren’t bad like Brave.
GrapheneOS has shown FF does have some security issues, so if you prefer Chromium then use either Vanadium (GrapheneOS only) or Cromite.
For desktop I do use Librewolf and Ungoogled Chromium if a website refuses to work on Firefox.
I can’t install apps outside of playstore
Yeah, saw that on another comment. Then just stick with plain Firefox and download the uBlock extension. Seriously, ditch Brave. It doesn’t do anything FF with some settings turned on can’t do.
Unrelated note: I see you have NextDNS as an app. You can’t just change the DNS settings on your phone? Is that blocked by parental control?
I can change the DNS
Yeah, I’d probably let go of the app and just change the settings, saves space.
Furthermore, I saw you have OpenVPN for Android. I’ve never heard of that app tbh, so it makes me wary. If you need a free, open-source, and audited VPN from the play store, then I’d stick with Proton. If you can pay money, then Mullvad.
OpenVPN is the software that many VPN providers used to use, and still do. You can install it for your own endpoint. Wireguard is more popular these days.
