    Firefox/Librewolf +containers should really be the end of the conversation every time a Chrome Clone is brought up. Throw FF a few bucks their way and you can add a different VPN per container. Shopping container with a USA VPN, social media container on an EU VPN, etc.

      That’s so sad that we need to do that much stuff to browse safely the internet, and personally I don’t do it ;/

        You don’t HAVE to do all that. With that said, Firefox containers are an absolute game changer. If I need to visit a Meta brand site, the URL automatically opens into a Facebook container and that’s where everything related to it stays (including trackers). Same goes for Amazon (Shopping container), my bank and investment account (Banking), and personal stuff like my doctor’s healthcare portal (Personal). None of those are anonymous or anything like it, but it keeps them compartmentalized. I don’t need Amazon or Facebook knowing that I go to Hospital Y or Bank Z.
