The test only checks the defaults Browser configuration.

On mobile they should have Mull competing.

Interesting, but I’d love to see what e.g. firefox + ublock can do

it’s pretty much the librewolf results, they have a couple of extra flags changed due to using arkenfox.js, but in general it’s pretty much the same

but check out the nightly results tho, FF’s been doing some banger job lately

They need Pale Moon / New Moon and Basilisk there.

I… didn’t expect Brave to be that good?

Wasn’t there something happened recently with Brave?

nah it just comes with an integrated adblocker by default, just like librewolf

that’s why they fair so well in this

Only the last two categories are impacted by using an adblocker, in fact they are probably the less important ones.

This website is a brave browser advertisement

Interesting how librewolf beat them all

It tests the browsers in their default state, and LW comes with uBlock Origin pre-installed by default, so that’s a huge advantage. TBF I’m really excited to see those results updated in the near future, because check out those Firefox Nightly results.

Looks promising! I wish fenix was as awesome as firefox
