Tor is very private, but not very good for day to day usage.
ya Tor is ridiculosity slow almost to the point where it's unusable if your just regularly using the web
Pale Moon aswell.
Yeah apparently looking at different blog posts and such Mozilla did respond to the backlash and apologized for the very vague wording in their terms of use. They did change a few things though but for now I'll hold off on using any Firefox forks for the time being because I wanna save a bit of storage space plus I don't mind if they collect a bit of aggregate data if it means that sites work better with it.

Comparison of browser engines - Wikipedia

It seems to me like the engines with the most hype are Blink (Chromium, etc), WebKit (Safari and others), Gecko (Firefox, LibreWolf, etc) and LibWeb (Ladybird).
I'm tempted to add Goanna (kind of old-school Gecko) but I'm not sure if it's being maintained to a standard that can handle the modern web.
true, but I don't think they are and are probably trying to rectify some issues with their TOS.
that's even worse
Why
collects lots of shit about you basically as bad as chrome
all browsers do lets be real, at least opera is chink based, i dont think china cares about my data as much as jews
Brave is good, for a chromium based browser especially with built in adblocking is amazing.Hm. Are there any other major ones you defend other than Firefox? heh
I like FF, Brave, Opera... Vivaldi is OK. And some others.
But yeah I've pivoted to these others like LibreWolf at least until the FF ToS controversy calms down and I can clearly see what's going on.
I wouldn't use tor outside of accessing onion services, most if all websites block or heavily restrict tor exit nodes besides porn ones or smaller communities like this one.
I never get the concern over privacy
Especially if you are using an older version of the browser. It's not uncommon for it to lose connection and stop loading certain websites for no apparent reason.
You probably shouldn't use an older version of the browser like at all, ESPECIALLY when going on onion sites because they can just be riddled with vulnerabilities that are already patched even with noscript active.
For starters, a lot of the basic features that I had on chrome don't work the same on FF. I can't search for images or translate a webpage without plugins, which I wouldn't mind except for the fact that they slow down my browser. I also don't care for the history tab being a sidebar, I find it inconvenient to navigate. The homepage also isn't brilliant.
I'm trying to boycott Google as much as possible because (well, for one, big tech) but also their ridiculous tendency to change completely functional features for the sake of change. That "Google Lens" thing infuriates me, as well as all the AI features they shove down people's throats.
