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?
Librewolf
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.
What are the advantages?
Fork of FireFox,
with a focus on data privacy + security:

I'd also like to add IronFox,
similar to LibreWolf, but for mobile:

From what I know, librewolf is just a script. Sm it will be susceptible to Firefoxβs policies
After a brief scroll through their source repo, I think it's a set of patches which gets applied by a script while compiling the browser from source.
So it's unlikely that it will be susceptible,
unless they forget to patch some telemetry out during a release, which is unlikely, since the projects goal is data privacy + security.
