"5G india browser fast and secure" is probably the worst browser name i have ever heard, holy fuck

[–] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 57 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's probably a verbatim search term popular in India.

And I expect the browser is none of those things.

Most browsers are if you wanna be really technical.

on iOS, all of them are because Apple is greedy, but Firefox has its own engine on Android and supports extensions

Reminds me of early Android days when calculator apps requested contacts access

I'd probably trust India browser way more then chrome Browser

[–] nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

sorry to say but sketchy browsers are probably using chromium, if for no other reason than most browsers in general are using chromium

[–] Smorty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 months ago

That is true, but some Indian person might not implement spyware, like Google probably does into Chrome (not Chromium, Chrome)
