    Not sure of any FF mobile forks that look like chromium. Maybe Cromite (bromite fork) is sufficient but it’s not a firefox fork. Otherwise, id get used to FF and use Mull (from fdroid repo) which supports FF addons and sync. Then add ublock addon.

    Samsung Internet’s UI is pretty unqiue and made by Samsung itself, to match there overall theme, I also used it before I got deep into Privacy, it was hard to switch, bc I liked it, but I can recommend you trying Fennec if you want a good Firefox based browser for Android, Fennec is a fork of Firefox with some tracking stuff and propierity code removed. It also has some privacy tweaks. Mull is a completly hardened Firefox Fork, I recommend it only to advanced users.

      Yeah i know it was so hard when i moved from Samsung notes too. That design is just so appealing.

    Sadly I don’t think there’s any Firefox fork with a diferent design. I would love to have a amoled themed one, at least.

      Looks chromium based, maybe look for another chromium with extension support?

      Ungoogled version doesn’t have extension support, but I think that extensions are overated anyways because they make you super easy to fingerprint.

      Brave is chromium based… But you have to trust brave.

        Damn. I made my very first post on lemmy from sh.itjust.works and now that instance is having server problems 😕

        I made a comment from the main account you’ll get it when the server is back again
