How behind?
It would be perfect except that the fingerprint protection includes forcing the screen refresh rate to the lowest common denominator. Scrolling is unbearable.
They need to report whatever number they want while always using the highest rate instead.

it’s worth noting that this is the intended behaviour for privacy.resistFingerprinting. this is not exclusive to Mull.
Does Firefox standard fingerprint resistance include the refresh rate? Because I use Firefox over mull on Android because of the drastic difference when scrolling.
yes, if you enable resist fingerprinting on any Firefox build it will cap refresh rate to 60hz. Mull is not doing anything special, it’s just changing about:config options by default.
you can disable resist fingerprinting in mull and regain standard refresh rate (although you lose fingerprinting protection) just as you can enable resistFingerprinting in Firefox beta or nightly and see refresh rate cap at 60.
Ok, I’ve now had time to check this out. Android Firefox is set to strict Enhanced Tracking Protection which says offers fingerprint protection. If that is capping my refresh rate, then I can’t see it. Scrolling is smooth.
In contrast, Mull is distractingly flashy when scrolling. There is absolutely something different going on here.
Ok, that actually sounds encouraging to me. Honestly, on Android Firefox I don’t see the option for resist fingerprinting. I am using Strict Enhanced Tracking protection but that isn’t affecting refresh. What am I missing?
you need to use Firefox beta, nightly, mull, or Fennec F-Droid to access about:config and from there you can search for and enable resistFingerprinting. it’s not an option in the settings.
it’s the best private daily driver. recommend to pair with something like cromite too
My combo is Mull and Mulch.
the Divested combo, based
I honestly had no idea Mulch was from Divest, it just works better for me than Cromite. Thanks for the info.
that’s because Cromite is much more tightened down in terms of privacy and security. Mulch is basically vanilla with some hardening patches
Absolutely. Cromite needs a bit of tweaking to work for me, and Mulch needs some tweaking to be more private.
No such thing as the perfect browser.
It is a really good browser just make sure you install ublock origin. The only big privacy issue is the screen resolution but that’s really hard to defend against.
I used FOSS Browser, now im into Tor Browser
