Neither your post or the link for the fundraising even says what the project is or what it does. I assume it’s a foss browser or Operating system (maybe), but there is a lack of information upfront. I could look it up, but as of now I’m not sure why if a simple explanation could be added to either. Firefox is my go-to browser, if this could be a better fork or alternative I’d like to know that before funding any project.
Also, 12k seems like a lot more than what is tallied in the costs, but good luck to the dev/project!
It’s a custom Android ROM focused on security, it does what many Android custom Roms are failing to do, which is bootloader relocking on a non pixel device, it also has other neat enhancement but I’m not gonna list them all here
They also maintain other awesome apps like : Mull ( a hardened fork of FF mobile ), Mulch ( a hardened fork of Chromium mobile ), Hypatia ( Android Antivirus )…etc
@betabob that’s my fault. I assumed everyone knows him and I just wanted to help spread the word. He develops fennec on fdroid and mull which are both firefox forks
No worries. I try to stay informed but there are to many projects to keep up. Keep us updated on the progress if you can, but an individual dev might lack the manpower for such an endeavor. All the best thought, am always happy to see any foss projects moving forward!

Thanks for the information! I’ll look into it, sorry for my ignorance on the dev, just wasn’t aware of it.

I just installed Fennec on my phone last night! Nice coincidence. 😃
