        I favor ironfox, which is easiest to find via fdroid. It’s very similar to librewolf in goals and settings to enhance privacy

          I second ironfox, its great. I would also reccomend fennec, which is essentially just debloated firefox. I use it for sites that ironfox breaks.

            I really can’t find any differences in performance or functionality other than those that cooks just as well be from the different platforms
