Or even better, a fork of Firefox which disable all that telemetry crap and bundle with uBlock Origin : LibreWolf.

He’s the virus because he bought the computer
Wait, people hate Firefox? Why??
I’ve tried a bunch of time but I feel going back to Chrome.
I’m currently trying or Oprah for the first time.
LibreWolf
Yes, because original Firefox is not it.
Firefox rules, people need to smarten up. Hell, Firefox on Android has an Adblock extension. Firefox is what’s up.
Ungoogled Chromium exists but it just feels 1/10 of what Firefox is capable of doing.
There is also UnMozilla’d Firefox for even more privacy!
Is Fennec on Android like that? Still developed by Mozilla, but has all branding, telemetry and firefox-account stuff removed (even comes with duckduckgo as default search engine)
I think Fennec F-Droid is a straight re-compile of the official Android app with binary blobs removed. So technically it is the actual open source version. Firefox telemetry is open source (at least on the client side) so wasn’t in the scope of that, but there are certainly variants that remove that as well.
how exactly does chrome not respect my privacy?
and i don’t just mean “because it’s google and google is an ad company”. what specifically is it sending to some internet server that firefox doesn’t? both the firefox and address bars send what you type into them to a search provider. as near as i can tell, firefox’s committment to privacy is to say “we protect your privacy” while doing all the same stuff that chrome does.
