I didn’t find many comparisons between the two let alone a recent one. So they’re both packages for changing Firefox prefs for better performance and or privacy. I’m interested in applying them to Zen Browser. Can you provide detailed comparisons and if I should you use both?
Zen already makes use of a lot of Betterfox tweaks as I remember.
I don’t believe you can use both as they both modify the same files, and would overwrite each other.
Arkenfox is geared more towards privacy at the expense of usability, so sites will break a lot more often. And there’s no easy way to turn it off for only 1 site.
Personally after trying Arkenfox in the past, as well as Librewolf, it’s just far too much effort dealing with the sheer amount of sites and features that stop working properly.
Does that mean you use Zen?
Yeah it’s by far my favorite browser!
Interesting. People have been skeptical on here about it because of its newness, but I may give it a shot one of these days, though I’m currently okay with Waterfox so far. Thanks for sharing.
Personally, I can’t get used to the sidebar. I haven’t spent all that much time on it.
Oh, is it impossible to disable?
To be honest, I thought the ux was the appeal of Zen, since if I wasn’t going to use that I’d probably use Mullvad browser, or vanilla FF with arkenfox
You can completely disable the sidebar in Waterfox and it’s not enabled by default.
Right, though I was asking about Zen. I can’t stand sidebar tabs, haha; too much wasted space and I don’t often even view the tab strip relative to merely running searches through it with
