    for something similar to edge, i’d recommend ungoogled chromium. it strips out all of the google garbage. the setup takes a bit of time to get extensions installed, but it’s smooth sailing after that.

    if you’re wanting something new, there are many privacy-oriented forks of firefox that can get the job done. one of the common ones is librewolf, but i honestly just stick to normal firefox with ublock origin, container tabs, and noscript.

    edit: if anything i said is wrong, please correct me 🙏

    This is probably the best answer in terms of avoiding lawyers. It’s also the worst answer in terms of practicality.

    While i occasionally use i2p for torrenting, the vast majority of content is only available on the public internet, because the vast majority of people aren’t running i2p nodes.

    If you can find what you’re looking for on i2p though, it’s probably worth it to get it from there.

    (also please correct me if i’m wrong, this is just based on my personal experience)

    You may be right about the goofy part! But (unless it’s FOX or Trump’s Truth Social feed /s), take care not to make fun of someone for what content they consume. (and if that wasn’t your intention, just ignore everything I said lol)
