The only browser we can trust today. Glad to see they’re making privacy online a priority, on top of an already amazing browser I use regularly and exclusively both on Linux and iOS.

Honest question, what's wrong with Safari, that you can not trust it?

It's not open source, how can you trust it?

But if you are using iOS, aren’t you already trusting Apple?

I thought Webkit, the core engine is open source. Or, are you saying Webkit != Safari?

Safari can use Webkit, but Webkit isn't Safari. Basically, if Webkit = Safari, then anything using Webkit would also be equally safe.

Firefox sync is not something I’m willing to give up. Also like Firefox UI better compared with safari on iOS.

I use safari on my Mac and iOS devices, but switched from Chrome to Firefox on my work PC.
