Brave Browser: Out-of-the-box fingerprint resistant ✅ Built-in ad & script blocking ✅ Comes with its own independent search engine ✅ Chromium-based (extensions carry over from Chrome) ✅ Based on Google’s code, including the closed-source "Safe Browsing" code ❌ Built-in ads

Firefox: Open-source ✅ Secure cross-device syncing ✅ Total Cookie Protection enabled by default ✅ Vulnerable to fingerprinting ❌ Collects telemetry data ❌ A little too reliant on Google for funding ❌ Encourages users to use privacy-invasive Big Tech AI ❌ 3/5

Zen Browser: Gecko(Firefox)-based (extensions carry over from Firefox) ✅ Doesn’t collect telemetry data ✅ Blocks third-party trackers ✅ Enforces HTTPS ✅ Still in Beta ❌ No mobile apps ❌ 4/5

Our preferred choice? It doesn’t matter, as long as it’s not Google Chrome. Choose what works for you and keeps you productive. See more alternatives here: https://proton.me/blog/best-br... 5/5

@ProtonVPN This thread is literally so skibidi twin 🥀🪦 Brave is the only option tbh, as I haven’t noticed for the built-in ads or crypto features to be noticeable or intrusive in any capacity.

@ProtonVPN https://privacytests.org/ Here's some actual data

@ProtonVPN Your thread is gaining traction! #TopUnroll https://threadreaderapp.com/th... 🙏🏼@PauloPhtavares for 🥇unroll

@ProtonVPN Good list

@ProtonVPN Proton Browser when?

@ProtonVPN Imagine: Proton Browser + @ProtonMail + @ProtonCalendar + @ProtonDrive + @ProtonVPN + @Proton_Pass = true privacy ecosystem maybe right? but the question is when? Proton browser??

@ProtonVPN Add @vivaldibrowser ;-)

@ProtonVPN Fifteen Linux distros that can't use the ProtonVPN GUI: 1. Devuan 2. MX 3. Antix 4. Void 5. Nitrux 6. Gentoo 7. Artix 8. Gobo 9. Alpine 10. Tiny Core 11. Chimera 12. Puppy 13. Venom 14. Kiss 15. Slackware Why: because they are systemd free...

@ProtonVPN Why isn't the default browser for GrapheneOS Vanadium the privacy and security-hardened version of Chromium developed by the GrapheneOS team on this list?🤔

@ProtonVPN Don't forget about the Mullvad Browser or LibreWolf, which are based on Firefox

@ProtonVPN Why no Vivaldi? You even partnered with them and its European?

@ProtonVPN shout out LibreWolf and Waterfox

@ProtonVPN Looking foreward to test @ladybirdbrowser in 2026 👍

@ProtonVPN What about : - Chromium : Vivaldi, Ungoogled Chrome ; - Gecko-based : LibreWolf ?

@ProtonVPN And Mullvad Browser?

@ProtonVPN I'm a very happy Brave user myself, but it's worth mentioning Vivaldi and also DuckDuckGo.

@ProtonVPN What about DuckDuckGo for Android?

@ProtonVPN @vivaldibrowser 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

@ProtonVPN لن استخدم vpn أنني اعمل على برنامج الوورد لنحمي الإنترنت 🛜

@ProtonVPN Vivaldi or Brave nowadays.

@ProtonVPN Gotta be Brave, watching YT on Brave is a game changer, no ads 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

@ProtonVPN Librewolf, based on Firefox just minus the telemetry data that they sell to third party by default 🤔

@ProtonVPN When will Proton Browser be released?

@ProtonVPN No Mullvad browser ?

@ProtonVPN Proton is no longer trustworthy, and questions via X are not answered!
