    LibreWolf is a great alternative on Linux. It’s Firefox with all the bs stripped out and out-of-the-box privacy settings turned on.

      This is what I have used for the last few years (after being a Firefox user for almost 2 decades), and yeah we’re probably safe for a little while, but it seems the writing is on the wall. The LibreWolf team can only do so much when the core browser is constantly being enshittified. I hoped this was a flash in the pan thing and LibreWolf would save us until Mozilla regained its senses, but it seems they’ve gone batshit.

      I too will be keeping my eyes peeled for what to use next.

      What do you do to move your bookmarks/history over?

      I really do like using Firefox sync. I know its probably bad but it is a super nice feature that works.

        There’s certain files you can tell the browser to generate that is basically a list of all that stuff. Then just point librewolf to them. Pretty sure the librewolf website has a step by step guide.
