You don't have to use Metamask as an extension on browsers like Chrome and Firefox. Instead of that, you can install Metamask application on your mobile phone. You can also use its own browser when you need to connect your wallet to a platform.
Metamask application is available for both IOS and Android users.

I agreed this is the best one to use instear the browser extension. I am also doing this when Im transacting and doing some activity on metamask, though some platform prefer the desktop version though.

Who knows what decentralized platform you would like to stake your tokens on?

Those platform that are secured and has audits. Cause when you do staking on decentralized theres no way that you wouldnt connect your wallet.

Your keys, your responsibility

Who knows what decentralized platform you would like to stake your tokens on? Actually you don't need to ask here, just know what app the platform needs to authorize your wallet, it will appear in the pop up after clicking connect wallet. Walletconnect is a common option widely used besides Metamask.

the browsers are always viewing your usages on the the computer.

You're not going to be able to stake your funds without showing them to a browser though? Is your concern that you're using a browser like chrome or Edge as you could exclusively use Firefox with the extension (which is open source) and that would probably be more secure to to not use your main browser for it.

As long you are doing a good security practice, you are safe. AFAIK, I haven't heard of any security vulnerability on the Metamask Wallet. The one who gets hacked mostly due to the users' side.

IIRC, Metamask does watch your browser usage, not the system. Mainly they did it to prevent users from accessing scam sites since they have the lists. They don't send any data regarding that. Additionally, you can freely turn off the Metamask analytic option.

The best way is to follow the above tips, to use Metamask with a hardware wallet. But beforehand make sure you comprehend the basic security guidelines.

MetaMask is the best that we got unless you want to run a Ethereum full node and do some command line work. Browser extensions are what's used for Ethereum platforms simply because it's an easy way for the wallet to connect to the platform.

Tip: use a Ledger/Trezor + MetaMask.

The Quest of the Best Information to the Solution

Hi everyone. I need some help from the community. I want to move my crypto to being more decentralized, To which I want to stake my coins in decentralized methods and platforms.
However it seems many of these decentralized platforms favour the Metamask wallet . I am not a fan of these browser extensions at all. I do not want to use Metamask at all.
Anyone know or can suggest of decent wallets that are not browser extension types that would work in decentralized platforms? please and thanks all for your help.
