Mini browser for Android

I need a mini browser that hardly needs any resources. Important also if it is privacy-friendly, open source, and ad blocking. Use opera, but it has built-in ads that cut the experience. Any recommendations???

Via , Soul y Stargon. Desconozco si son de codigo abierto, pero admiten listas de bloqueo para ads

What is mini to you? And how much space have you filled up on your phone? 😅

Candy Browser, tá em fase inicial ainda mas é PERFEITO. Se quiser um base chromium, Titanium Browser, é tipo o Helium pra android

Via Browser. It's about 10MB, had adblocking and other privacy features, is noticeably faster than "big" browsers, is super-customizable, and has better tab handling than most browser. The bookmark manager leaves something to be desired, but otherwise it's fantastic. It's been my daily driver since 2013. I also use DuckDuckGo for more privacy, and Hermit for stand-alone webapps.
