I use the following in order of preference and frequent use:

> **Desktop (Windows)**
>
> **Brave:** I don’t need to block elements such as newsletter notices or annoyances, as those on Firefox using uBlock Origin do, since I really don’t care and it doesn’t bother me.
> 
> **Firefox** w/ Arkenfox: I use this as a fallback, or for logging into sites like this forum. Yes, I could do that on Brave, but I want to keep what I do on both browsers separate. A key difference is that I use uBlock Origin Lite, rather than uBlock Origin, although there seems to be [some](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/ublock-origin-lite-maker-ends-firefox-store-support/21204) issues with the former currently.
> 
> **Mullvad:** For generic searches, reading information, researching for information so I can respond to queries like [this](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/doctor-refuses-to-see-me-because-i-expressed-reservations-about-having-to-share-my-social-security-number-what-should-i-do/21332), and the like.
> 
> **Tor Browser:** I somewhat use it for the same purposes as Mullvad, especially for anonymity.

> **Android (Plastic Premium Galaxy)**
>
> **Tor Browser:** Since I don’t use my Galaxy frequently, as I’m almost always on desktop, I mainly use Tor browser unless I need to sign in. Thus, I use Brave as a secondary browser.
> 
> **Brave:** I use this very similarly to desktop, except I don’t add exceptions since I can’t. (It’s either clear everything or manually clear what you want.) I simply just clear everything and deal with the inconvenience.
> 
> Differently to desktop, I use this also when I’m impatient with Tor Browser speeds, such as using Invidious on a .onion site, I just use it on Brave.
> 
> **Mulch:** I use this for sites I can safely stay logged into, like Cryptee.
