|
|
|
|
I have a new browser setup on my desktop to increase my privacy and
|
|
convenience. It is divided into two profiles that perform differently
|
|
based on what I need to do in the moment.
|
|
|
|
\hypertarget{what-is-it}{%
|
|
\subsection[What is it?]{What is it?}\label{what-is-it}}
|
|
|
|
I use Librewolf as my browser. It is a fork of Firefox that is enhanced
|
|
for privacy without heavily impacting user experience. I divided it into
|
|
two profiles:
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\tightlist
|
|
\item
|
|
Accounts (instances in which I need to login)
|
|
\item
|
|
Browsing (general website browsing)
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
Let me walk through how each profile is setup.
|
|
|
|
\hypertarget{profile-setup}{%
|
|
\subsection[Profile Setup]{Profile Setup}\label{profile-setup}}
|
|
|
|
Firstly, let me talk about common settings between both profiles.
|
|
|
|
\hypertarget{common-in-both}{%
|
|
\subsubsection{Common In Both}\label{common-in-both}}
|
|
|
|
On both profiles, I have my settings to optimize my privacy. On
|
|
Firefox-based browsers, it is very easy to use these settings because
|
|
most of them have little impact on convenience. I use Brave Search as my
|
|
search engine and will switch to my own SearX instance when I get a good
|
|
server. In terms of extensions, I have the \textquotesingle uBlock
|
|
Origin\textquotesingle{} extension installed setup to block JavaScript
|
|
and remote fonts by default. I have the default lists along with all the
|
|
others unchecked by default apart from language lists. I block every
|
|
single domain from Google, Facebook, Microsoft and other websites which
|
|
are known for tracking. If a website breaks, I whitelist that website in
|
|
particular.
|
|
|
|
\hypertarget{accounts-profile}{%
|
|
\subsubsection{Accounts Profile}\label{accounts-profile}}
|
|
|
|
My accounts profile is optimized to work well with day-to-day logins and
|
|
important websites. I use this profile for all websites where I can
|
|
login like Google or Microsoft.
|
|
|
|
I use the following extensions:
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\tightlist
|
|
\item
|
|
Cookie AutoDelete
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\tightlist
|
|
\item
|
|
Enabled with whitelisting to auto-delete cookies for websites which
|
|
I open by accident.
|
|
\item
|
|
Using extension instead of Librewolf\textquotesingle s built-in
|
|
setting because it currently does not work for me.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
Containers
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\tightlist
|
|
\item
|
|
For multiple accounts
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
\hypertarget{browsing-profile}{%
|
|
\subsubsection{Browsing Profile}\label{browsing-profile}}
|
|
|
|
My browsing profile runs in permanent private browsing mode so my
|
|
cookies, cache and browsing history are automatically deleted when I
|
|
close my browser. I use it for general web browsing like watching
|
|
videos, viewing articles and more. I have most of the content I like in
|
|
an RSS feed but this profile is useful for some websites which either do
|
|
not have an RSS feed or I only need to use once.
|
|
|
|
For this profile, I use these extensions:
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\tightlist
|
|
\item
|
|
Dark Reader
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\tightlist
|
|
\item
|
|
\textquotesingle Invert Listed Only\textquotesingle{} mode turned on
|
|
because most websites I use have dark mode turned on already.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
LibRedirect
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\tightlist
|
|
\item
|
|
To redirect common websites to their free, libre and open-source
|
|
frontends.
|
|
\item
|
|
Some examples are:
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\tightlist
|
|
\item
|
|
YouTube -\/-\textgreater{} Invidious
|
|
\item
|
|
Twitter -\/-\textgreater{} Nitter
|
|
\item
|
|
Reddit -\/-\textgreater{} LibReddit
|
|
\item
|
|
Medium -\/-\textgreater{} Scribe
|
|
\item
|
|
Wikipedia -\/-\textgreater{} Wikiless
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
I highly recommend everyone to do the same because these frontends
|
|
are lightweight and do not use JavaScript which makes them load
|
|
swiftly.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
\hypertarget{conclusion}{%
|
|
\subsection[Conclusion]{Conclusion}\label{conclusion}}
|
|
|
|
This setup has been serving me extremely well. I will continue using
|
|
this setup and building on it if any specific need arises.
