Recommend Firefox on Android

As per Mozilla’s announcement, it seems that Total Cookie is now part of Firefox for Android. Would this not mean the time is ripe for new discussion about its listing among the Android Web Browser options?

Just my 2 cents

The issue is that Firefox on Android lacks per-site process isolation: Browsers - DivestOS Mobile

Thank you very much, that makes sense!
I thought that was included in the TCP as well, but was clearly mistaken!

DivestOS site seems to be down?

This topic seems to be suggesting Firefox for Android, which almost has Fission ready. However, recommending IronFox would lead to PG having no reason to recommend Firefox, and IronFox already implements Fission. I think this topic should rejected in favor of IronFox.

Please use the dedicated IronFox topic, Mull isn’t maintained and this topic can probably be closed ? @team

This discussion is regarding Mozilla Firefox, so we’ll keep it open, and I’ve updated the title to make that more clear. But I would agree it’s more likely we’d recommend IronFox before Firefox on Android.

Got it, that make more sense.

I wouldn’t recommend Firefox on Android due to it’s default settings not being private. Right now Ironfox is great because it’s an hardened Firefox, but plan Firefox is probably both more insecure and less private than the competition.
