Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com

There were no “issues”; everything was working completely fine. This is a deliberate decision to force people to turn off tracking protection.

I saw a recommendation to use Firefox’s container extension https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers, but it’s disabled in private browsing windows, and I always use private browsing windows.

    Hey :) may I suggest rethinkDNS to have a more granular control over your installed application? Also it’s possible to block everything except the apps you trust while still being able to use your own DNS/wireguard VPN/proxy…

    Also If you want a more in depth overview of every connection your phone attempts to make, give Pcapdroid a try !

      Wait, I thought the “downside” of this app was that it used your VPN connection, compared to NextDNS or the built in DNS feature of Android.

      I also use AdAway rooted version and not really looking into changing it, but if you could clarify about this I could happily see it as an alternative :)
