Comments and Reviews
I see that the Tor Browser is listed as an "alternative" to Tor. Just so people aren't confused, the Tor Browser uses Tor, so it's not technically an alternative. Tor refers to the network of devices running the software, whereas the browser is a modified version of Firefox that works together with the Tor network. It includes plugins like NoScript, which blocks things like Java, JavaScript, and Flash on different websites, and Torbutton, which allows you to easily change configurations on Tor. Nonetheless, the browser is great, and the developers keep making improvements to it!
I LOVE the Tor Browser because it hides your identity online, and it also hides your IP. Freedom!
Absolute overkill for most people out there. Only use it if you need to whistleblow on someone/something, or evade totalitarianism. I can't speak on those two uses personally, but I've heard Tor Browser is top notch for them.
Bastion of privacy and anonymity. Not designed as a daily driver because its heavy privacy-preserving features make it slow. Thankful for their work.
Use it for better anonymity on the web
It could also be better, like having JS disabled by default
Why not also images disabled by default? If someone like to stare at empty screen... Most pages nowadays require js to function, or even display anything at all...

Still my favorite browser of all time, have been using it for over 6 years now, never lets me down
You need to disable JavaScript for maximum anonymity.
