Not affiliated with Waterfox at all, but I am a user, and this seems like great news for me.

    This sounds good! Although not a waterfox user, are there any other good reasons to try it out over hardened firefox?

      Hardened Firefox has better privacy protections, while Waterfox is more like a browser focused on customization, design, performance and privacy without a lot of breakage. So it’s a good browser for “normal” people, but if u want smth more secure try smth like LibreWolf.

        There is also Mercury, which claims to combine quite a lot of the nice stuff from different FF forks. I personally stick to the original, but it might be worth checking out.

          Thank you for sharing! I checked it out. It’s basically a random Mix of a bunch of different Firefox Forks, I wouldn’t recommend it for normal users or people who want the best privacy they can get with Firefox, is better than the Vanilla Firefox ig, but I don’t see any real sense using it.
