Currently the #1 best web browser in my opinion

I like FireDragon because it's a better Floorp which is itself a better Firefox. The extra KDE integration in particular is very welcome.

2024 Update: Firedragon is based on Floorp now, with permission from the Floorp dev, giving the browser a hefty speed increase over Librewolf and the Fox.

Privacy-Respecting Apps and Services (Computers)

Choose freedom and continued democracy by switching away from big tech in your personal digital lives. Not all apps and services listed will be open source or even free (as in free beer), but they will at the very least be privacy-respecting. Of course, there will be a few exceptions, simply because they are necessary for some people, like for work. BUT, THEY ARE NOT NECESSARY FOR YOUR PERSONAL LIFE. Work-life balance is important. This list will get updated from time to time. Each section lists my recommendations in order of best (in my opinion) to good enough. Except for the Docs and OS sections, which are listed from easiest for beginners to better for creatives, techies, and professionals. These and the Video Conferencing section, which is listed based on needed for work to good enough for personal use. Lastly, the Linux operating systems (or distros) are at the end of the list because no matter which you choose, the majority of these apps can be installed on Windows, and can certainly be installed on any of the distros.

Be careful what you paste into a terminal. Check what a command installs before running it.

What is FireDragon?

FireDragon is a software product that is a derivative of Floorp icon Floorp, itself based on Firefox ESR. The software includes custom branding and boasts enhanced KDE integration through the use of OpenSUSE patches and kifredragonhelper. Pre-installed extensions include Ublock Origin, Canvasblocker, Dark Reader, ClearURLs, and Tabliss.

The software offers a variety of features. These include rounded page corners for aesthetic appeal and faster webpage loading due to custom FireDragon settings and the inclusion of FastFox tweaks. Navigation buttons are hidden rather than greyed out when inactive, offering a cleaner user interface. FireDragon also incorporates Floorp's customizable sidebar, which can be disabled according to user preference. The software also allows for the use of vertical tabs, a feature borrowed from Floorp but disabled by default, that can be easily activated by users.

Additional features include the ability to mimic Chrome on Windows through Floorp's User Agent switcher when not using Fingerprinting. The software also includes Smoothfox's tweaks for enhanced functionality. For improved security, FireDragon has added some PBMode Security features and the latest Fingerprinting.
