Mostly can't sign in to lemmy.world for some reason but otherwise I'd some change for a bit.
I don't believe that's a Firefox issue, unless it's a problem specifically with the beta.
I've signed in a few times to lemmy.world using Firefox over the last week.
Sorry for being the annoying "not for me" guy. ;-)
That's odd; I could sign in with lemmy.dbzer0.com without issue.
Maybe it's an issue with the beta? Have you tried regular FireFox?
I'm using Firefox Nightly with zero issues here. Love being able to use any addon I want on my phone.

You're probably gonna have to tell us what it is that you want and what it is that you don't like about Firefox Beta.
Firefox non-beta
Mull is a Firefox hardened browser that works perfectly out of the box.

I find Kiwi Browser essential. It's one of the only ones that you can install chrome extensions onto.
Using Kiwi because it supports Twitter control panel and old reddit redirect extensions.
What's wrong with FF beta?
I think brave is pretty alright. Yes the crypto stuff is hella cringe and its chromium based but it works like charm.
What kind of features are you looking for? I've been using DuckDuckGo as my primary mobile browser for a while now and have been very happy with it.
Iceraven. Its based on Firefox. I don't like some of the UX peculiarities of Firefox but it works alright.
Ohh will check it out. it seems to fit my bill a bit.
Librewolf on desktop, Mull on android, doesnt matter on iOS
Ungoogled chromium on desktop, Bromite on android
Don't forget that the browser has access to all of the data that you see on your display and everything you type in. All of it. So he careful who you trust. Is it a community software, is it non-profit, is it for profit, does it have a sustainable funding / business model.
Even though I'm quite eager to try new softwares, for browser I usually return back to Firefox or brave browser.
Only recently when I tried Vivaldi browser, I don't feel the urge to return to Firefox/brave.
IMO Samsung Internet is one of the best Android browsers out there. Give it a try!
I think it offers alot of great features if you use a samsung phone. However the adblockers are not as good as ublock on firefox!
Therfeore I use both!!
It's not just for Samsung phones, it works perfectly on my Pixel and Razer Phone as well. The Adblocking is okay but the design + the dark mode for all websites is the killer feature for me.
