I can't find librewolf on the play store so I went with vivaldi
Doesn't playstore defeat the purpose.
Using that logic I might as well ditch my android phone and go back to using a Nokia 3310
You can degoogle android.
Sure but I'd rather not go through that trouble. I know it's short sighted to choose convenience over privacy but Google has all my data anyways, regardless of what I do.
I use Vivaldi on desktop, but due to having problems with Firefox for Android I switched to Kiwi on mobile as it has basically full extension support. It's Chromium, and I'm not sure if it's maintained well or what, but I haven't had any problems with it, whereas Firefox would just stop loading pages after a bit and it didn't get fixed for a year or so and I got fed up.
mull is essentially the same as librewolf. It isn't available on the play store though.
What are the benefits of Vivaldi over Firefox? Any downsides?
android have vivaldi?
