   Brave vs Tor Browser Comments

   Negative comment by Kelson V · Mar 28, 2025

   For every cool privacy feature in Brave, there's something else that makes me want to firewall the application away from my system.

   Positive comment by Caden Durden · Jan 11, 2022

   Brave is pretty good privacy wise. However, I don't like Chromium based browsers, as it just feeds into their monopolistic power over other web engines. It's good, but I would like it if it would use their own engine, WebKit, Gecko, XUL, or any other engine besides Chromium.

   Negative comment by AbyssalThatRatesAppsTho · Sep 17, 2026

   I don't like Brave as an alternative to Tor Browser because of the built in LLM nonsense, that is a point of vulnerability in my opinion. There is also the fact that Brave isn't very lightweight, it is a performance hog in comparison to the Tor Browser.

   IronFox vs Tor Browser Comments

   Positive comment by Kelson V · Mar 28, 2025

   IronFox would probably be a good counterpart for everyday use, with Tor when you really need to keep something private.

   Ecosia Browser vs Tor Browser Comments

   Negative comment by Sam Lander · Jun 21, 2024

   Ecosia has a commendable mission, but a very poor privacy policy. It's less private than LibreWolf, which is itself less private than Mullvad Browser (all Firefox forks).

   Startpage Private Browser vs Tor Browser Comments

   Negative comment by Sam Lander · Jun 21, 2024

   Does not provide a Tor connection, and very little privacy protections, so not really an alternative to Tor Browser.

    Warning

    Thorium has a history of being bundled with Yiff (furry porn) withing the program structure folders, while some other users report their antivirus detect a Troyan file bundled with it.

    Thorium Browser vs Tor Browser Comments

    Negative comment by Sam Lander · Jun 21, 2024

    Thorium is just a fork of Chrome. It doesn't provide a connection over Tor or any real privacy protections.

    Also something weird about a suggestive furry easter egg.

    Ceno Browser vs Tor Browser Comments

    Positive comment by Sam Lander · Jun 21, 2024

    I voted this as an alternative, but there is a big CAVEAT!

    Tor browser is to increase anonymity. Ceno Browser basically decreases your anonymity.

    I voted as an alternative only for the aspect of bypassing censorship, which is important in certain places (i.e. Great Firewall of China).
