Tor Project has teamed up with Mullvad VPN to create a privacy-focussed browser which works independently of Tor Browser, the Mullvad Browser.

Tor Project says it's own browser will remain, however, this new browser will give users an additional option.

Our goal was to give users the privacy protections of Tor Browser without Tor. For instance, the Mullvad Browser applies a "hide-in-the-crowd" approach to online privacy by creating a similar fingerprint for all of its users. The browser's 'out-of-the-box' configurations and settings will mask many parameters and features commonly used to extract information from a person's device that can make them identifiable, including fonts, rendered content, and several hardware APIs. By default, Mullvad Browser has private mode enabled, blocks third-party trackers and cookies, and makes it easy to delete cookies between visiting pages during the same session.

I just started testing the Mullvad browser on Ubuntu Linux.
My first impression; It is FAST in rendering a web page.
NOTICEABLY so -- compared to the other 7 browsers I have installed.
