Tor Browser
Browser for using Tor on Windows, Mac OS X or Linux
Tor Browser enables you to use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. Tor is a software that bounces your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers. This effectively prevents anyone watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit; it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location; and allows you access to sites which are blocked. Tor Browser can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained (portable). -

DB Browser for SQLite
The DB Browser for SQLite
DB Browser for SQLite (DB4S) is a high quality, visual, open source tool to create, design, and edit database files compatible with SQLite. DB4S is for users and developers who want to create, search, and edit databases. DB4S uses a familiar spreadsheet-like interface, and complicated SQL commands do not have to be learned. This program is not a visual shell for the sqlite command line tool, and does not require familiarity with SQL commands. It is a tool to be used by both developers and end users, and must remain as simple to use as possible in order to achieve these goals. Import and export records as text, import and export tables from/to CSV files, import and export databases from/to SQL dump files, issue SQL queries and inspect the results, examine a log of all SQL commands issued by the application, plot simple graphs based on table or query data. -

Chromium
The official GitHub mirror of the Chromium source
Chromium is the open‑source foundational web browser project that drives browsers like Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Opera—built for speed, stability, security, and extendability across platforms. This directory is currently in a prototyping state and may be removed in the future. As we add support for multiple coding IDE/agents, we will likely pull common prompts and instructions into a central directory with stubs for bespoke IDE/agent integration. Please check with your organization before using GitHub Copilot. copilot-intructions.md is typically a single instruction file that contains default instructions for a workspace. These instructions are automatically included in every chat request. -

Selenium
Browser automation framework and ecosystem
Selenium automates browsers. That's it! What you do with that power is entirely up to you. Primarily it is for automating web applications for testing purposes, but is certainly not limited to just that. Boring web-based administration tasks can (and should) also be automated as well. If you want to create robust, browser-based regression automation suites and tests, scale and distribute scripts across many environments, then you want to use Selenium WebDriver, a collection of language specific bindings to drive a browser - the way it is meant to be driven. If you want to create quick bug reproduction scripts, create scripts to aid in automation-aided exploratory testing, then you want to use Selenium IDE; a Chrome and Firefox add-on that will do simple record-and-playback of interactions with the browser. If you want to scale by distributing and running tests on several machines and manage multiple environments from a central point. -

geckodriver
WebDriver for Firefox
geckodriver is an implementation of WebDriver, and WebDriver can be used for widely different purposes. How you invoke geckodriver largely depends on your use case. If you are using geckodriver through Selenium, you must ensure that you have version 3.11 or greater. Because geckodriver implements the W3C WebDriver standard and not the same Selenium wire protocol older drivers are using, you may experience incompatibilities and migration problems when making the switch from FirefoxDriver to geckodriver. Generally speaking, Selenium 3 enabled geckodriver as the default WebDriver implementation for Firefox. With the release of Firefox 47, FirefoxDriver had to be discontinued for its lack of support for the new multi-processing architecture in Gecko. Since geckodriver is a separate HTTP server that is a complete remote end implementation of WebDriver, it is possible to avoid using the Selenium remote server if you have no requirements to distribute processes across a matrix of systems. -

Don't waste your time with compliance. Universal Bypass circumvents annoying link shorteners. Universal Bypass bypasses templates that are used on thousands of domains and it would be impossible for me to keep a complete list of domains that are bypassed. You would have to get a new Universal Bypass version and accept its new permissions for each new bypass. Custom Bypasses would be pretty pointless if you could only create them for sites that are already bypassed. Also known in the options as "Give and take the destinations of unbypassable shorteners.", this feature exists to bypass a respectable amount of link shorteners using CAPTCHAs and other forms of backend validation to make sure you've actually waited before you can proceed to the target link, to share this target with other Universal Bypass users, who come across the same link in the future, so they can proceed to the target immediately.

Betterfox
Firefox user.js for optimal privacy and security
Betterfox is an opinionated configuration profile for Mozilla Firefox designed to improve everyday web browsing by making the browser faster, more private, and more secure without relying on external add-ons or third-party code. Rather than being a separate browser, it consists of a curated set of preference tweaks (user.js settings) that users apply to their Firefox profile to optimize performance and harden privacy settings. The project focuses on a minimal-impact, maximum-effect approach, removing unnecessary background services, reducing fingerprinting, and tightening security defaults while trying to keep sites usable. Betterfox recommends pairing these settings with essential extensions like ad blockers and DNS-level protections to achieve a well-rounded browsing experience. Because the preferences are text-based and version controlled, users can review and customize them to meet their own balance of privacy and convenience. -

Min
A fast, minimal browser that protects your privacy
Tabs in Min take up less space, giving you more room to browse the web.

Or search through the full text of every page you've visited, even if you don't remember the title. Tabs in Min open next to the current tab, so you’ll never lose your place. When you have too many tabs, you can easily split them into groups to help you stay organized. Min stops ads and trackers, so you can browse faster without being tracked. And when you’re using a slow or expensive internet connection, it lets you block scripts and images, so pages load faster and use less data. -

Ungoogled Chromium
A lightweight approach to removing Google web service dependency
In descending order of significance (i.e. most important objective first), ungoogled-chromium is Google Chromium, sans dependency on Google web services, ungoogled-chromium retains the default Chromium experience as closely as possible. Unlike other Chromium forks that have their own visions of a web browser, ungoogled-chromium is essentially a drop-in replacement for Chromium. ungoogled-chromium features tweaks to enhance privacy, control, and transparency. However, almost all of these features must be manually activated or enabled. In scenarios where the objectives conflict, the objective of higher significance should take precedence. Disable functionality specific to Google domains (e.g. Google Host Detector, Google URL Tracker, Google Cloud Messaging, Google Hotwording, etc.). This includes disabling Safe Browsing. Consult the FAQ for the rationale. -
21
Tamper Dev
Extension that allows you to intercept and edit HTTP/HTTPS requests
If you are a developer, you can use Tamper Dev to debug your websites, or if you are a pentester, you can use it to search for security vulnerabilities by inspecting the HTTP traffic from your browser. Unlike most other extensions, Tamper Dev allows you to intercept, inspect and modify the requests before they are sent to the server. This extension provides functionality similar to Burp Proxy, MITM Proxy, OWASP ZAP, Tamper Data, and Postman Proxy, but without the need of additional software, with full support of HTTPS connections, and trivial to set-up (just install). -

Lightpanda Browser
Lightpanda: the headless browser designed for AI and automation
Lightpanda is an open-source headless browser designed specifically for automation, artificial intelligence workflows, and large-scale web interaction tasks. Unlike traditional browsers that include full graphical rendering engines meant for human users, Lightpanda is built from scratch to operate entirely in headless mode, focusing only on the components required for programmatic web interaction. This design allows it to execute JavaScript and interact with web pages while avoiding the overhead associated with rendering images, fonts, and layout elements intended for visual display. The browser is implemented using the Zig programming language and integrates the V8 JavaScript engine to run modern web applications and scripts efficiently. Because it avoids graphical rendering and other heavy browser components, the system uses significantly less memory and launches almost instantly compared to conventional browsers such as Chrome. -

Waterfox
Privacy browser built for users who value customization & control
Waterfox is a free, open-source web browser and fork of Mozilla Firefox that’s built for users who prioritize privacy, performance, and customizability while still maintaining compatibility with modern web standards and extensions. It began as a 64-bit-focused fork and has grown into a full-featured browser available on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android, making it a versatile alternative to mainstream browsers. Waterfox removes or disables much of Firefox’s telemetry and unnecessary data collection by default, giving users greater control over what is shared with third parties while still supporting classic and modern add-ons. The project emphasizes speed and efficiency through optimizations and choice, letting users tweak settings or install favored extensions without being locked into ecosystem constraints. Because it’s open source and actively developed by the community, new features, security updates, and performance improvements arrive regularly to align with web standards.
