@jeder
1: it's ugly
2: even though it would theoretically work on sway, most features aren't intended for that
3: i don't want arbitrary remote code execution on either devices

@alina it's the only "mainstream" mobile browser which supports extensions

does it not suck? very debatable

@jeder okay it sucks a lot but also a whole lot less than everything else I've tried

i've also searches for browsers with extension support like bromite and "Foss browser" from F-Droid, but the user experience was terrible

@alina for me extension support on android just boils down to having an adblock and dns-based adblocks(even local ones like personaldnsfilter) just work fine
i don't really have to time to fight with firefox and a dozen of desktop ui'd extensions that don't feel right on mobile

@jeder how do you handle ads that are hosted on the same site as the one you're visiting? not everything is cross-referenced

also a huge improvement of my mobile browsing experience is the GDPR consent-o-matic extension for automatic denial of cookies and just as a "make the cookie banner go away"-machine

and i won't ever use a browser that doesn't support having your search bar at the bottom on mobile, clicking at the top of my pixel 6a just to search feels way to uncomfortable

@alina i don't handle them since its not that possible and usually they are not the most intrusive ones ime anyway

sure, the consent-o-matic is nice, but for me it also introduces a bunch of problems on some sites for some reason unknown to me
