Firefox is the best web browser i know of as far as it capabilities and potential for privacy hardening, in part due to the , and understand that this
i think there's some 'misthink' among some of us in that using Firefox correlates to supporting Mozilla and that absolutely does not have to be the case, in fact quite the opposite - one can easily use the browser without supporting Mozilla and gain a substantial benefit with regard to protecting privacy
Mozilla is fucked, no doubt - beyond the politically correct/pro faggot bullshit, the 'free speech' advocates at corporate are perusing ways to literally censor the web, along with all of the rest of big tech
i hate the company, but i still use Firefox without giving Moz a dime
they make their millions (literally) from their many deals with many unethical companies, primarily search engines like google, so when you use the default Firefox search plugins, they get paid, simple as that
fortunately using their product without them benefiting is quite easy; basically you can just disable all of the built-in search plugs and add your own ... there's more to it than that, but that's the major part of it
for more info, and to understand why i suggest using FF from a privacy perspective, - among those articles you'll find 2 comprehensive configuration guides as well as info on search engines
