Epiphany als Linux-Alternative zu Mozilla Firefox
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Epiphany can serve as a lightweight replacement for users who only need basic browsing and prefer tight GNOME integration. It handles HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and offers private mode, reader view, and password sync via GNOME Keyring. However, it lacks the extensive extension ecosystem, advanced sync across devices, and the performance tuning that Firefox provides. It is best suited for casual users on GNOME desktops who value simplicity over feature breadth.

Ihre Mozilla Firefox-Dateien öffnen
Epiphany can import bookmarks and passwords from Firefox by accessing the profile folder, but it does not natively open Firefox’s profile files. Users must export bookmarks to HTML or use the import dialog. Passwords are stored in GNOME Keyring, so they are not directly transferable without re‑entering them.
Von Mozilla Firefox zu Epiphany wechseln – Schritt für Schritt
- Open Firefox and export bookmarks to an HTML file via Bookmarks Manager.
- Export saved passwords to a CSV file using Firefox’s password manager (if needed).
- Launch Epiphany, go to Bookmarks > Import Bookmarks from HTML and select the exported file.
- In Epiphany, open Settings > Passwords and import the CSV or manually add passwords to GNOME Keyring.
- Restart Epiphany to apply changes.
- Verify that bookmarks and passwords appear correctly.
