Lemmy helping Lemmy World browse the web (lemmy.world)

I thought it would be helpful for all the good people of Lemmy World if we shared our browser setups.

I'm mostly a laptop user when it comes to the Internet. I've been using Firefox with the Ublock Origin addon and it makes browsing the web so much less ad filled.

For youtube specifically I've had the best results with Chrome and an extension called Clear Skies for ad skipping.

Share you own browser setup. What do you use to surf the wild waves of the web to avoid the sharks and the sharp rocks?

Phone: firefox android with ublock origin, darkreader, privacy badger, ruffle, and search by image
Laptop: firefox linux with ublock origin, darkreader, privacy badger, ruffle, search by image, multi-account containers, and flagfox

I recommend Mull and Librewolf for the respective platforms. They are way more private.

Flagfox should not be used, it sends every site you visit to random servers of theirs, which is basically really invasive tracking.

This is the way

Firefox mobile works with Jerboa too for web containers

I didn't think the account containers worked on mobile
