There is something humorous to the fact that these users have waited until Firefox has begun the AI enshitification process before switching to it. It's like they just had to wait until it was no longer the clear. Good choice before they made the switch.
FireFox was enhittified even before the AI bits: it fucking spies on you
That's why I use LibreWolf , which is literally just the latest-stable FF build, but with all the AI and telemetry ripped out, uBlock Origin and anti-fingerprinting enabled by default.
It's literally what FireFox was supposed to be. And they don't even accept money . God level.
But there is no mobile version, and their FAQ says it's unlikely to happen. Instead they point to IronFox, which I presume is nowhere close to feature equivalent to Firefox.
Its feature equivalent but it is so slow compared to Firefox fennec or waterfox.
