Would anyone know if this would work for all Firefox derivatives as well? Zen browser in my case. Also would it work for flatpak installations as well?

Does Zen Browser even include the AI shit from Mozilla? I know for a fact that neither Waterfox nor Librewolf do.

[–] rando@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

I see, at least initial read/reviews seem to mention Zen removes Firefox telemetry and AI so that's good. (I also have waterfox installed but didn't really use it as main browser)

Now need to see if flatpak Firefox is supported by this script.

Don’t mind about the AI addition. The worse thing for me is that it doesn’t seem to support custom OpenAI compatible endpoints nor Ollama. Wtf?! This should be the norm for the more privacy conscious community
