It’s meta-search. A decent idea, but still relies on other search engines. A bit misleading.

Now we just need Earthfox and Airfox, so we can have our own Avatarfox.

Is Waterfox just a different version of Firefox?

  Essentially. Waterfox is a Firefox “fork” (a reimagined version of Firefox using its original source code) Unlike Firefox, Waterfox is more privacy focused with no tenementary and a built in tracker blocker.

    Ah, fork was the term I was looking for. Thanks.
