Firefox alternatives

I’m thinking of switching to some Firefox alternative, but there are too many. So far, I’m thinking of Floorp, Waterfox or LibreWolf, but it is hard to decide on one specifically. Is there are suggestion in terms of privacy, security, maintanability, etc?

    I’d go with LibreWolf.

    A few years ago, Waterfox was purchased by System1, and advertising company. It also collects more user data. Edit: Looks like the dev bought it back. I’d still recommend LibreWolf though.

    In my experience, LibreWolf is a good balance between privacy and functionality. I’ve never had problems with LibreWolf.

        I sense a new business model:

        Make something that starts gaining users; Sell to ad company; Users move away; buy back cheap. (Optional: Repeat.)
