    This whole thing is concerning. Are there other real alternatives to FF or Chromium?

      I finally switched from Firefox to librewolf, which is a privacy focused fork of it. It’s basically Firefox with some of the iffy stuff ripped out, and with good default settings.

      Firefox with proper settings is probably “fine” still, but the transition is super easy since it’s basically the same thing.

      Only other alternatives I know are either Safari if you’re on an apple device or something like Links/Links2/Lynx if you don’t mind text based browsers. Neither are convenient for their own reasons, but it’s not like we have any other choices. At least not that I’m aware of.
