It actually was pretty easy. All I did was install Fennec and then tweak a few settings.

  • I switched the browsing protection to strict

  • I installed ublock origin

  • I went to about:config and enabled resist fingerprinting

I ran some fingerprinting tests and my slightly modified Fennec performs about the same as Mull

There is. As per the latest announcement from DivestOS:

DivestOS and its apps will not receive any further updates.

Sadly, that means that there is basically no privacy-respecting Firefox-based Android web browser as of now which works out-of-the-box.

There is IronFox, a Mull fork, but it remains to be seen whether they are trustworthy and can keep up with the updates. In the meantime, a hardened Fennec is probably the best we can do.
