The other day, I made a post about Firefox’s web extensions, specifically for YouTube. A lot of people pointed out Mozilla’s recent TOS update, which pertains to selling personal data. I noticed there were no suggestions, though. What alternative would you suggest, Lemmy?
Leaving Firefox and its derivatives is mostly out of the frying pan and into the fire. Proprietary browsers are worse, and Chrome and its derivatives are worse, thanks to Manifest V3.
That leaves Firefox/Gecko derivatives, like LibreWolf, and possibly some Safari/WebKit derivatives like GNOME Web.

Just switched to it the other day. I liked the letterboxing and its assistance to reduce fingerprinting and OOTB ublock origin. And the familiarity of Firefox made it an easier transition from reg Firefox.
Currently I’m angrily sticking with Firefox. But once Floorp switches to the current version of Firefox as base I’ll totally try this one. According to what I found, they will switch with the next major release.
I switched to firefox-esr and will be happy to wait for tab groups and vertical tabs in the June/July version.
