Show HN: Konform Browser v140.8.0-105 - Security-focused Firefox fork (codeberg.org/konform-browser)
4 points by konform 13 days ago | hide | past | favorite | discuss
Some highlights since last time:

- Rebased on latest ESR release (obviously) - Been porting over relevant security-motivated changes from Tor Browser[0] and Mozilla. - Significantly improved fingerprinting situation making anonymity less of a pipe-dream - Addons no longer leaking their local IDs in HTTP headers - ML/"AI" features adapted for local/offline use when enabled (while proprietary cloud snoopies fully removed)

Been quiet on HN previously so keeping this submission brief. Release notes are probably the best resource right now to get an overview and feel for the project. Happy to talk more if anyone has any questions!

Would also be nice to hear feedback from anyone who's either tried it out or dug into the repo.

[0]: Big thanks and cred to inspiring maintainers and contributors there
