That doesn’t make it private. Privacy on the modern web requires anti-fingerprinting, otherwise any website with tracking scripts can easily start creating a shadow profile for you.
Edit:
What I mean is it isn’t a browser anyone who cares about their privacy should use (yet or every depending on development). Not close to ready yet. OP didnt put any context either for why they posted it.
Firefox and chromium are open source. You can just remove mozilla and google telemetry during compile, or disable in the settings.
Fingerprint is 100% still useful even with telemetry. This is not a privacy browser and is still in early stages, volatile and easy to fingerprint (not even counting it is a different web engine and so has an even smaller userbase than Firefox). Also, a content blocker is good for cyber security, so regardless of fingerprinting, this is not ready for privacy-conscious people.
I made my original comment to add context about why this browser shouldnt be used if you care about privacy. If OP had said “this is a promising new independent player in the browser world, look forward to seeing what they do in the future when its more stable” I wouldnt have said anything.

no you can’t if the entire web runs on a whitelist system that requires the google telemetry, like what google is trying to do with shit like web integrity. you need a sizeable independent browser so that google isn’t 70% of the market share like it is now. obvs you can’t trust apple to do this because safari is a piece of shit and people only use it because it’s the only option, and they’d obviously follow google if it meant more profit. mozilla might do something about it, but their funding is pretty sus.
i understand ladybird isn’t good for privacy at the moment, but we’re gonna really need it for privacy in the future
