It's mainly NoScript that breaks sites for me, and there's no way to disable it.
Actually currently my Mullvad browser is not working at all. I have no idea why. My other 4 browsers continue unfettered but Mullvad won't load a single webpage.
Plus not being unable to be set as the the default browser means I often forget it's even there.
You can open up the no script options and click on disable globally.
Sorry to hear mullvad's not loading anything. Seems like a weird bug
Setting the default browser, is a problem on Windows, there is a workaround I could dig up for you if you want. But basically you have to make a script and then modify the registry to point to that script as the default browser. It's a pain in the butt but it works. Thankfully on Linux, and Mac OS it just works as the default browser
It does not work on Linux. Not for me.
On Qubes it just worked after I did --register-app
Their GitHub has an issue open for it in Linux, I see that the tor project is working on a solution as well to make it more elegant.
But since it doesn't load any web pages for you, you don't want to make it your default anyway.
"Command not found". This is exactly why I don't even bother anymore.
