FF 115.20.0 ESR is likely the last useful version without Mozilla's shit.

Thanks to PurpleI2P team, I’m using their configuration asset (based on this version) with minimal changes that allow FF to work in multinet mode:

I think it will be interesting to see how FF forks like Librewolf handle the less welcome additions from Mozilla. They already chop out some stuff like Pocket integration.

I definitively don't like Librewolf and removed it at least for pre-installed uBlock extension. It also have lot of issues around the sessions, and requires additional tuneup.

I would like to use Dillo or NetSurf browsers instead, but for modern web, I want modern renderer.

How does one decide to trust security tools that come from punk GitHub repos run by anonymous people? (Well, they look punk to me, but maybe I’m just out of the loop and these are very well known and highly respectable folk.)

I feel like the odds of being generally surveilled by the major browser vendors are high, but the odds of being specifically surveilled are low, because why do they care about me amongst their millions of users? With niche tooling, it feels like that risk runs the other way round.
