I have no idea. I did not downvote lol. Was genuinely trying to figure out if there was a reason to switch.
I would assume there is no issue until someone actually explains what the problem is.

wonder if they’re somewhere else in the thread naming other browsers. i looked up librewolf and it looks solid enough anyway.

I don’t know either. This one of those cases I wish people would elaborate, since I don’t know much about waterfox so would welcome more insight into it.

in the early days, waterfox was simply a fork of firefox that provided 64bit support when the official builds didn’t. since then i’ve kept using it since it seems like firefox with better default settings for me. between 2019 and 2023 waterfox was owned by an advertising agency although they exerted no control over the software as far as i can tell, and everything remained open source. maybe some peoples info is outdated and they don’t know that the partnership ended 2 years ago. sorry for bad formatting i’m on mobile.
