    There are several Firefox forks. Waterfox (based in Europe UK), Librewolf, Zen etc.

      i switched from firefox to waterfox on my phone and have yet to spot any difference.

      i heard some websites might have issues (e.g. web versions of office software) and some settings are missing but in my own everyday use i didn’t run into any of those yet.

      I tried Zen on Arch. Wouldn’t even load pages. I’d avoid it for a while. 🤷‍♂️

        Librewolf is definitely better if you are a hardcore privacy nerd. I used it but it broke some sites due to the privacy settings. Waterfox is better than Firefox privacy-wise. Waterfox is in the sweet spot for me. Waterfox has an app but I do not like it because it was very slow compared to the Firefox app. I use Waterfox as desktop browser and Firefox as mobile browser.
