New gecko based browsers are rare nowadays but this one is especially unique to me because it is more than just "firefox with tweaks" like a lot of the ones I've come across. The UI is different, it's working on custom settings, a new more powerful sidebar, a new theming system, and potentially IPFS/Dat support further down the line. It's very early in development but it's still impressive as it is.

Hi, I've been reading about Fission. I didn't see this option on privacytools.io, still would you recommend it? Thanks

It is still only available in Nightly, for basically it isolates every website from each other, it consumes a lot of ram tho so I wouldn't recommend it if your are in an older system, otherwise is awesome for privacy.

I have the option in about:config for updated Firefox. Thank you for the advice, I think I'll keep it on
