Waterfox has sold its users out before. DDG hasn’t (as far as I know)
The fact that Waterfox sold themselves to a search/advertising company before, then mysteriously became “independent” again doesn’t inspire trust. I’ll stick to Librewolf.
Using US search engines underneath is what almost all search engines do, including Ecosia and Qwant. Until next year at least, when they will hopefully finish their own search index.
What’s the difference between this and Duck Duck Go?

I do not subscribe to guilt by association, especially when Waterfox is open source, unlike Startpage.
Well, duckduckgo is not that clean either. https://www.techradar.com/news/duckduckgo-in-hot-water-over-hidden-tracking-agreement-with-microsoft
Why is this being advertised on Buy European if they are shady as fuck and use US search engines underneath?

Otherwise, valid question

As they say:
“If we can’t generate enough revenue through privacy-respecting ads and subscriptions to support these costs, we may need to reconsider our approach.”
God damn it. What FF version would you recommend using on mobile?
