Hi guys wanted to know how can i use mull browser in higher refresh rate than 60hz? I know it will make me standout and more prone to fingerprinting and it’s fine for my use case

    You probably need to turn off resist fingerprinting.

    Honestly I don’t really understand why one would need something more than 60 Hz. Most phones on the market don’t even support it.

      […] more than 60 Hz. Most phones on the market don’t even support it.

      Just checked. Most phones within the 400€ - 800€ price range support more than 60Hz.

      Of 591 devices, only 176 feature a ‘unknown’ or <90Hz refresh rate. 415 support >=90Hz, 382 support >=120Hz and 48 models go to >=144Hz. It has become a fairly common feature.

      Once you get used to it, it’s difficult to go back. Scrolling becomes so jarring compared to chromium based browsers. I really want to use a Firefox variant on my phone but the choppy scrolling prevents me from doing so.

        You could just force yourself to do it. I have yet to hear any real world benefit to 120Hz. It just makes you easy to track

          The real world benefit is that scrolling is smooth, not choppy.

        nope I just used to 120hz and gonna use mull for logging in accounts so no need for resist fingerprinting. I use another disposable browser for anonymity.

    I remember the main dev of Mull saying it can be done on about:config but you need to disable something else, maybe you can find it on the project repo

      Firefox’s privacy.resistFingerprinting flag normalizes refresh rate (among many other metrics)
