Looking for Privacy-Oriented Open-Source Android Browsers

I’m looking for a privacy-focused, open-source Android browser. Here are some options I’ve found:

  • IronFox – Privacy-oriented and recommended by LibreWolf. GitLab Link
  • Fennec F-Droid –. F-Droid Link
  • Waterfox – Waterfox Link
  • Librewolf – Privacy-focused but not sure about Android support.
  • iceraven – seems to be the best? iceraven

Is there any other browser out there that fits this criteria? Is there an even better choice? I’m particularly interested in ones that focus on privacy.

      I know Brave is controversial but they were the only ones (edit: not sure about Vanadium, I’m curious if they were vulnerable) disallowing JS to access localhost thus blocking Meta and Yandex’s recently discovered spying.

      Sounds like such a no brainer to not allow random websites to communicate with the localhost and very easily circumvent all sandboxing you spent thousands of hours building. Looking at you Android (Google) and all the browser vendors (also Google?, huh).

        Huh, I didn’t know that. I wonder if any of the rest have implemented that since…

        Sorta. It’s the same engine, but it is generally less private and less secure than actual Chromium.

        DivestOS used to have some handy tables, before they shut down the website.
