URL Copying Fails on Focus for me
Please report bugs directly to the Firefox Focus developers.

Firefox Focus "use google account to sign in" pop up, any way to get rid of it?
Since you use Firefox Focus, please report this to its developers. Maybe they can do something about it.

Firefox Klar?
Not the only one who has noticed it: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android/issues/6101
-
Possibly a stupid question - why does firefox android app have trackers?
The only Mozilla-backed browser that doesn't have trackers or telemetry enabled by default is Klar (Play Store, Github) because they have to comply with Germany's, Austria's and Switzerland's laws.

Cannot get rid of Site Exceptions Firefox Focus on Android
I filed https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android/issues/6888 for this. Feel free to chime in over there if you want to add a "me too" to the comments.

Firefox Focus iOS: will we get multiple tabs support?
Found an old one, and it looks like they are waiting for Android multitasking features to be implemented.

On Mobile: Firefox w/ addons VS. Firefox Focus
Focus uses a blacklist of known trackers.

Firefox have a great desktop browser, but a not so great mobile browser
It seems that Fenix will support HTTPS only mode in very near future. At least, HTTPS only mode for Firefox Focus is actively developing. https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android/pull/5988

Reddit links don't work in Firefox Focus anymore.
I think this is https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android/issues/5101

Do not change my search engine!
Filing on Bugzilla for the android browsers gets a delayed response and follow up. It's better to go directly to the Github repo.

Si te preguntas, ¿por qué no usar Adguard o Pihole? 🤔

Radicle: Open-Source, Peer-to-Peer, GitHub Alternative
This is an overreaction, almost to the point of absurdity.
Risks inherent to pipe installers are well understood by many. Using your logic, we should abandon Homebrew [1] (>38k stars on GitHub), PiHole [2] (>46k stars on GitHub), Chef [3], RVM [4], and countless other open source projects that use one-step automated installers (by piping to bash).
A more reasonable response would be to coordinate with the developers to update the docs to provide alternative installation methods, rather than throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Runs on your OpenWrt box: AdGuard Home is network-wide blocking ads and tracking
I ran a competing project[0] on my home network for a few years before I discovered NextDNS[1]. What I lost in performance (requests don't leave my house) I gained in portability: ALL my devices can take advantage – at home and away – and time-saved. PiHole works 90% of the time, but when it did stop working, I'd have to spend a bit of time fixing it. At $20/year, I simply couldn't compete with NextDNS.
Note: This isn't a shill for NextDNS; I love these kinds of projects and think they absolutely should exist, but NextDNS just happens to be one of those dead-simple SaaS tools that is an insanely good value.

Higher fees, more ads: streaming cashes in by using the old tactics of cable TV
It definitely IS an option, but at the network level.
https://pi-hole.net/
It runs on damn near everything, and is a DNS level adblocker for the whole network.

In 2024, please switch to Firefox
I recently switched to Wipr [0]. It’s dead simple to use, and will auto update its filter lists in the background.
Adguard [1] is a decent free option.
I also use a Pi-hole [2] on my network.

Overwhelmed by a project
Are you trying to build a DNS proxy (similar to Pi-hole) that intercepts DNS requests and checks for the ones that look harmful? If so, I would suggest trying to separately build a DNS client and a DNS server, before trying to integrate them together. Start with Beej's Guide to Network Programming if you need to learn the basics of sockets, and then take a look at the documents that define the DNS protocol itself (RFC1034 and RFC1035).

Setup a pi-hole.
- The Internet will win the war against anti ad-block software. YT is very foolish and basically legitimizes piracy with their "business model"

Is there an Android app that blocks the ads on games?
It's definitely not as simple as installing an app on your phone, but I run a Pi-hole on my home network, and it does block ads in many games.
