I am having problems reaching Tuta through Mull on my Android (Mull 120.0.0, downloaded from f-Droid). Checking, I saw that Fennec is version 120.1.0.

Just in general, does any of you peeps here have any takes on Mull vs Fennec when it comes to privacy? I have assumed both are on par and also comparable to LibreWolf on PC.

    I personally have used mull exclusively in the past, but use Fennec currently.

    Commenting here just to ask others: mull has been terrible since Android 14. Is that just for me? Pages not loading at all until cache is cleared every few minutes, its been completely unusable for me so i switched.
    Nothing like that on their github or nothing. Im on a pixel8/grapheneOS

      I thought Graphene was the culprit. When I switched it was still Android 13 and Mull was unusable. I couldn’t interact with it at random until I restarted it, which was quite the problem. Tried Fennec and have had no issues since.

        Ok yeah im in the exact same boat. Mull was also unusable on stock on android 14 (pre gos release); i kinda expected it to fix it.
        It works just fine still on my pixel 4a so its odd…

    From what I understand, mull is more privacy-centric than fennec. However, I don’t use it because I had trouble accessing some websites with it.

    Mull is better as it have all telementry collection removed and arkenfox by default.

    For broken pages u can open issue on github someone might give option u need to tweak

    I used both, and my experience is, that mull has better privacy features but a lot of pages are broken. I go with fennec, because of that.

      Not yet. I was trying to go with the browser first, before “IYAP” 😉 (“Install Yet Another App”) But I am likely to end up there.

          Especially if it’s pushed through fdroid, The code would be recorded, so somebody would see they put a special flag just for your phone.

    Believe Mull is better strictly when it comes to Privacy. However I personally prefer Fennec as its closer to the Firefox experience.

    I’ve tried using Mull on GrapheneOS but it just crashes constantly so I went back to Firefox.

      I’m using mull on grapheneos right now. Works great.

    Maybe off topic but what’s the issue with using standard Firefox? Also on f-droid through Fennec/FF updater.

    With things as dicey as browsers, I would rather have fewer patches and a certified version. These forks never seemed very reliable to me
