  • Floorp

    The most of source code of version 10 or later of Floorp Browser, the most Advanced and Fastest Firefox derivative 🦊

  • I'm using Brave with rewards, vpn, wallet disabled and around 20 flags modified. It works much faster, better extension support for me with fewer bugs, less memory usage when fewer tabs are opened. I chose brave because it can sync.

    I'm impressed with Firefox and tried a fork called floorp. It has some useful additions and find it better than regular Firefox while still supporting sync and was using ungoogled chromium before.

    Unfortunately some websites still work better with chromium browsers in my experience. This is anecdotal but I also feel some negative fingerprinting from Google owned websites on Firefox, more memory leaks as well. It's only a matter of time before I change to Firefox (forced manifest V3) but I will stick with brave for now.
