After about 8 months, I love this Android browser. Not Chrome, FF, or Edge based. (codeberg.org)

UPDATE: THIS USES GOOGLE WEB VIEW. DO NOT USE.

I can't figure out why nobody talks about this. I see all kinds of alternative browsers on here, but never this one. I especially like the color coded bookmarks for different categories (my news is gray, my searxng/swisscows and other search engines green, my tech solutions purple). It has anti-fingerprinting and a quick toggle for if you need to quickly adjust javascript or cookie setting to make a quick exception. There are lots of features. If anyone else has tried it, it would be interesting to hear your feedback too.

Now I know why nobody talks about it. I am just figuring out if it is still bad or do I need to make a switch immediately. I have tried as hard ad I can to get away from Google. They are like cancer.

The only thing I find bad about using blink is that it gives google more power over the consortium. Things are added as a standard when they are widely used, so if google disables jxl functionality, they kill any chance of that becoming the new standard. The bigger the market share of blink is, the more power google has over what other browsers prioritize also.
