I've used Firefox
I've used Firefox, Vivaldi, Brave, Chromium, and Opera on Linux Mint, all bog down and freeze eventually. I do not use themes or extensions by the way, and empty cache weekly. Waterfox has not. The pages load a noticeably faster, and no more lagging.

A trustworthy browser alternative.
Managed by someone with a clear goal in mind: To make a Gecko-based browser with privacy, zero telemetry, and user choice in mind. Especially since it was bought back by the original developer a few years ago, Waterfox has been delivering on all this, in my opinion.

False!
Waterfox is falsely false.
In the "Privacy Comes Standard" sections. Everything false.
Each browser have default private search and private & container tabs.
Even if this look like a Mozilla Firefox copy.
