Okay, so how do you install it on an android phone? No fdroid, no playstore entry...

[–] zdhzm2pgp@lemmy.ml 26 points 6 days ago

There's no mobile version, use Ironfox instead; they're both FF-based so you can sync between them.

[–] dekaneos@lemmy.world 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Desktop only. Use this one for android IronFox (A privacy and security-oriented Firefox-based browser for Android.) https://f-droid.org/packages/org.ironfoxoss.ironfox/

Or Fennec

[–] kixik@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

FrozenFennec on the work, a fork closer to Mull in some settings I believe.

[–] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

what is the difference with IronFox then?

[–] kixik@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

IronFox is done by the phoenix developers I believe, and FrozenFennec, which hadn't been released, it more actually based on Mull. If you care IronFox is not part of official f-droid, but offers its own f-droid repo, FrozenFennec is being developed as an extended/special Fennec and it'll be released on official f-droid

thx for the context

also yeah, they also distribute it on Accrescent, which is miles better than F-Driod in terms of security

not everything is a smartphone app...

[–] bountygiver@lemmy.ml -4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Unfortunately when it comes to the web browser itself, it's a must. You cannot have a browser that is actually just a webpage.

[–] hmmm@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago (2 children)

It's for Desktop not for android.

@hmmm @bountygiver @Valmond I use #LibreWolf on desktop and #DuckDuckGoBrowser on Android.

[–] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 6 days ago

I would heavily recommend on using Ironfox through Accrescent on Android. DDG browser is suboptimal at best

"The developer doesn't plan to develop for mobile" would have been appropriate response instead of that sass response.

And you wonder why mainstream users have problems with FOSS community.

[–] hmmm@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

What? It was normal a response. I just said "It's for Desktop not for Android" like normally.

In context to the earlier response I replied to
