Right now, my default is Cromite, and I occasionally use Brave as well. I have tried Firefox with uBO, but unfortunately it is slower than the aforementioned browsers and also lacks some features. I’ve also heard that Gecko-based browsers in general have a security issue on Android, but I don’t know the details. Which browser(s) do you use/recommend and why?

      hey Sem

      I had not seen that.

      Oddly my “Allow installation of add-ons” is unselected and set to blank.

      Why can’t I install add-ons/extensions?

      By default, due to privacy and security concerns, IronFox disables the installation of add-ons. This has no impact on already installed extensions, and updates to those extensions.

      To allow the installation of add-ons, at the cost of security, you can navigate to Settings -> IronFox -> IronFox settings -> Security, and select the option to Allow installation of add-ons. It is recommended to disable this option when you are done installing your desired extension(s).

      I wonder if it is to do with the repo:

      I know it took ages to be released to f-droid and droid-ify and was only available from the git repo.

      I installed the repo from here

      to add the repo to f-droid or f-droid basic

      I hope you sort it out
