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). -

Development focuses on maintaining compatibility with modern web standards while decoupling Chromium from its Google dependencies and services. -

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. -

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. -

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. -

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. -

BrowserOS
Agentic browser; privacy-first alternative to ChatGPT Atlas
BrowserOS is an open-source, agentic web browser built on a Chromium base that integrates AI agents directly into the browsing experience. Rather than just doing standard browsing, it places AI intelligence at the core: you can connect your own API keys (for e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini) or run local models (via e.g., Ollama) so that your browsing data and automation stay on your machine — privacy and control are emphasized throughout. The interface remains familiar to users of Chrome (including support for Chrome extensions), but adds new capabilities: the browser can automate tasks for you, help you research by extracting and summarizing content, and enable agent-based workflows (e.g., “go fetch this info,” “fill this form,” “monitor this site”). The project is community-driven and entirely open source under the AGPL-3.0 license, which means you can inspect, fork, and contribute to the codebase. -

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.

That’s why we offer multiple types of privacy protection, most of which aren’t offered in most popular browsers by default. DuckDuckGo Private Search comes built-in, so you can easily search the web without being tracked.

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. -
