Enter, read and post at your own risk. You have been warned!
While our staff will try to guide the herd into sensible directions, this board is a mostly unrestricted zone where almost anything can be discussed, including matters not directly related to the project, technology or similar adjacent topics.

We do, however, require that you:
  • Do not post anything pornographic.
  • Do not post hate speech in the traditional sense of the term.
  • Do not post content that is illegal (including links to protected software, cracks, etc.)
  • Do not post commercial advertisements, SEO links or SPAM posts.
We also ask that you keep strongly polarizing topics like politics and religion to a minimum. This forum is not the right place to discuss such things.
Please do exercise some common sense. How you act here will inevitably influence how you are treated elsewhere.

Pale Moon is getting on lists of top secure/private browsers for 2022

Post by Pallid Planetoid » 2022-01-24, 18:10

The most secure/private browsers for 2022:
1) Ranked 4th - most notably ahead of Brave that is so very often a top 1 or 2 on many lists - https://privacysavvy.com/security/safe- ... -browsers/
2) Ranked number 8 of the top 10 most secure/private browsers for 2022 - https://restoreprivacy.com/browser/secure/
3) Made the list of top 8 Best Private Browsers - https://vpninsights.com/privacy/browsin ... -browsers/
-- above is 1st search page results - continuing with a couple more on page 2 that ranked Pale Moon markedly high:
4) TheWindowsClub site, Ranked #5 for Win10 Quote: "...To-notch privacy and security..."- https://www.thewindowsclub.com/best-pri ... or-windows
5) Ranked #3 of the overall top 7 most secure and private browsers - https://proprivacy.com/privacy-service/ ... e-browsers

Very nice to see Pale Moon receiving notable mention :clap: (for all browsers) in regards to security/privacy (which is such a critical aspect of browsers). :thumbup:

Haven't heard of any of these sites and looks like they haven't bothered to do any research. The first link says that "It also boasts support for Firefox extensions and add-ons." without clarifying that it's XUL extensions that are supported, not web extensions. Expect to see more clueless noobs registering accounts here to ask why web extensions don't work because of course nobody will read the website before diving into the forums.
