Waterfox

Waterfox 6.7.7 is out with Rust based Brotli for better memory safety and multi-core JPEG XL loading. Also with fixes to update and tab preview issues 👇 www.waterfox.com/releases/6.7... 📣 We’re now on Threads too: www.threads.com/@waterfoxbro...

Waterfox 6.7.6 is out with more control over feeds, a multitude of bug fixes, updated emoji support, and security fixes 👇 www.waterfox.com/releases/6.7...

Waterfox 6.7.5 is now rolling out, now with the ability to manage and read feeds directly! 🔖 www.waterfox.com/releases/6.7...

Microsoft deliberately engineered its operating system to make installing an alternative browser on Windows difficult. This is what it looks and feels like to be a PC user trying to choose your own browser:

The return of Live Bookmarks is here! Plus search engines now have their AI features turned off by default (with the option to toggle them back on if you wish) 👇 www.waterfox.com/releases/6.7...

Huston, we have a problem... Welp, time for everyone to switch to @waterfox.net (at least I am for sure)

I see a lot of hypocrisy when it comes to the modern tech landscape, so it's time to put things to bed 👇 www.waterfox.com/blog/where-w...

Waterfox 6.7.3 introduces a variety of improvements to tabs, the sidebar and older extensions, along with security updates. As it is the weekend, the auto-update will start rolling out on a weekday. In the meantime, you can update manually 👇 www.waterfox.net/releases/6.7...

Waterfox 6.7.2 is now rolling out with improvements to tree tabs and the vertical sidebar 👇 www.waterfox.com/releases/6.7...

Waterfox 6.7.0 - Supernova www.waterfox.com/releases/6.7...

Waterfox 6.7.0 Beta 3 has now rolled out, and will be the final beta before it hits the release channel! It includes both x64 and ARM64 builds, as well as proper Linux repo support. Give it a whirl 👇 www.waterfox.com/releases/6.7...

Waterfox Private Search has a new look built around clearer hierarchy, consistent controls, stronger accessibility, and more predictable navigation. Everything should feel faster and less janky. Want to support Waterfox? Give it a go! 👇 search.waterfox.com

Waterfox's default search is now @qwant.bsky.social ! An independent, privacy-focused engine as the default - something I've long been gunning for 👇 www.waterfox.com/blog/waterfo...

Waterfox is an @ethical-consumer.bsky.social “Best Buy”! Proud to be recognised in their latest web browsers guide for helping support a more private, independent and open web. www.ethicalconsumer.org/sites/defaul...

Same, except I moved to @waterfox.net

Knew I had chosen the RIGHT browser for me! n.n

Waterfox 6.6.15 is rolling out! This is a small follow up release for the MFSA 2026-58 security advisories. Most related fixes were already included in 6.6.14; this update adds the remaining fixes. Beta for the next major Waterfox release is coming soon 👀 www.waterfox.com/releases/6.6...

So, anyway. I still recommend @waterfox.net

Waterfox 6.6.14 for desktop and Waterfox 1.2.4 for Android are now rolling out to all users! If you’d like to support continued Waterfox development, please consider signing up for Waterfox Private Search. search.waterfox.com

I've only been using the paid search service by @waterfox.net for a week, and I can already tell it's worth every penny. I've had three specific things I needed to find, and Waterfox search got me what I needed within two clicks for each. Highly recommend for de-enshittified search.

The built-in adblocker is a really nice feature!

In an internet world being overrun by tech bro billionaires hell bent on force feeding us ai slop to milk us for even more money, we have to actively support an alternative. The work Alex Kontos is doing with @waterfox.net is worth supporting, and as of today I'm doing just that.

Waterfox 6.6.13 is rolling out! Auto-updates to follow soon... Big changes - the built-in ad blocker is now available to use, and Startpage has been temporarily replaced with 1.org (a charitable search engine). Plus, tracking protection fixes and web compat work. www.waterfox.com/releases/6.6...

So, anyway. I recommend @waterfox.net

To anyone uninstalling Chrome today over anti-AI sentiments, please remember the Mozilla Foundation has also made a commitment to integrate AI into Firefox. Please consider @waterfox.net or any other FOSS fork of Firefox instead ❤️

And so it begins. Chrome is shipping a Prompt API - giving websites access to the browser's built-in LLM. This is the scope creep I wrote about... websites can now pass your page content, inputs and browsing context to an AI baked into the browser itself. groups.google.com/a/chromium.o...

Waterfox v6.6.11 is rolling out over the next few days! Testing a new feature that I'd love to get your feedback on - please try it out and let me know how it goes: www.waterfox.com/releases/6.6...

Happy 15th birthday Waterfox! 🎂 www.waterfox.com/blog/15-year...

Tomorrow marks a special day for Waterfox…

Waterfox 6.6.9 is out: Security fixes, certificate reliability improvements on Linux, and faster JPEG-XL decoding 🌊 www.waterfox.com/releases/6.6...

Waterfox for Android 1.2 has now been submitted to the Play Store for review! A lot of under-the-hood changes that took quite a bit of effort. Separately, APKs are also available from the GitHub release page 👇 www.waterfox.com/releases/and...
