Umbra Browser vs Minoo

Umbra is a privacy-first browser that treats your data the way it should be treated — as yours alone. Every feature is free. EVERY TAB IS A VAULT Each tab runs in its own isolated container. Cookies, cache, localStorage — completely separated between tabs and destroyed the moment you close one. No browsing history is ever written to disk. BLOCK ADS & TRACKERS Umbra blocks ads, trackers, and fingerprinting scripts using built-in content blocking powered by EasyList and EasyPrivacy. See exactly what's blocked with the per-tab privacy shield — tap the shield icon for a full breakdown of blocked ads, trackers, and scripts. ANTI-FINGERPRINTING Canvas fingerprinting, WebGL probing, AudioContext exploitation, navigator sniffing — Umbra neutralizes the most common fingerprinting techniques by injecting protections at the browser level. ENCRYPTED EVERYTHING HTTPS-first browsing with automatic upgrade and HTTP warning interstitials. Encrypted DNS-over-HTTPS with your choice of provider (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9, and more). Bookmarks encrypted with AES-256-GCM, key stored in your Keychain. SSL certificate inspector — tap the lock icon to verify any site's certificate. SMART PRIVACY FEATURES Automatic UTM parameter stripping on every URL. DuckDuckGo as default search engine (Startpage and Brave Search also available). Per-site whitelist to disable blocking where needed. Share sheet strips tracking parameters automatically. READER MODE Distraction-free reading with a clean, fast-loading text view. No ads, no popups, no clutter. USERSCRIPTS Install custom userscripts to extend Umbra's functionality. Inject JavaScript on any page — block elements, restyle sites, or add features. SESSION RESTORE Pick up where you left off. Umbra saves your open tabs and restores them on launch. COMMAND PALETTE Quick-access command palette to switch tabs, open bookmarks, search history, and navigate — all from the keyboard. ALL FEATURES INCLUDED Everything is free with no restrictions. Custom DNS providers, advanced blocklists, userscripts, session restore, encrypted bookmarks, and every privacy feature — available to all users. Built by NorseHorse. No ads. No tracking. No compromises. Terms of Use: https://umbra.norsehor.se/eula Privacy Policy: https://umbra.norsehor.se/privacy

A minimalist cross-platform Markdown note-taking app designed to streamline your workflow and sync seamlessly across your devices, no server required. Stay organised, stay focused and keep your notes private. FEATURES • Local Sync. Paired devices automatically synchronise notes via your local network, no server or account is required. If a conflict occurs, both versions are kept and the older file is moved to the trash with a [conflicted] label. • Plain Markdown files. Each note is saved as a standard Markdown .md file in regular folders. Your data belongs entirely to you, meaning you can back it up, use other editors, or track it with Git. • Raw Markdown styling. Beautiful raw Markdown rendering of headings, bold text, italic text, lists, horizontal lines, quotes, code and code blocks, links, and tables. • Sidebar. Easily organise your notes. You can drag and drop folders, select multiple files at once, and rename items. Deleted notes can be recovered until the trash is manually emptied. • Command Palette & Search. Navigate the app instantly using a central command palette. Run full-text searches across your open note or across all of them. • Customisation & Settings. Choose from four beautiful themes and start customising your experience. All your configurations are saved in a settings.toml file, making them easy to back up and export. • Intuitive Touch Gestures. Navigate fluidly on mobile devices. Swipe from the left to open the sidebar, from the right to access the command palette, press and hold to open context menus and tap with three fingers in the editor for a context-menu.
