    Install Tor Browser for Android. It doesn't contain trackers.

    Who says that the sole purpose for which Tor Browser exists is to access .onion sites?

    I should mention it specifically
    Yea for browsing only without download upload watch media yes they faster

    The only issues i often login on website

    If i using TOR i can get ban (temporary or forever) because detected as spam bot

    Also Wi-Fi in my home is used by many people i don't want ruin the internet speed if Not really needed

    Tor is a good way to bypass most methods of ISP and DNS blocks. Tor is not only for .onion you can go to any TLD (.com .net whatever)

    Just download "Fennec" from F-Droid, it's a trusted build of firefox compiled without any trackers or telemetry and with a touch of love.

    as much i love Firefox desktop app that much i hate their android ver. I am veru happy and satisfied with my firefox browsers and have never switched back to any other app even after over 20 years of usage. I have over 1000+ tabs open and even then it doesnt feel slow or hogging resources. Even the addons selection are good. But i am very upset with addons compatibility specially after they upgraded their browser. Some of my most liked addons were not working in new version of the app post FF v80+

    Brave - Suspicious thing. If you want something Chromium-based - better to check Kiwi Browser. It's contain desktop Chrome extensions support (almost all extensions works), and also this browser is open-source (under BSD license). The only problem - it doesn't "degoogled" as Ungoogled Chromium. Bromite or Ungoogled Chromium could be even better than Kiwi, but they both lack extensions support, which is inacceptable for me.
    What about Firefox-based - IceRaven/Fennec good enough. Mull (Fennec fork with more strict privacy settings) has broken Mozilla account synchronisation, so i can't install on Mull my addons collection, which is sad. IceRaven/Fennec don't have this issue. Also by default IceRaven has larger extenstions collection for install.
