Firefox alternatives

I'm thinking of switching to some Firefox alternative, but there are too many. So far, I'm thinking of Floorp, Waterfox or LibreWolf, but it is hard to decide on one specifically. Is there are suggestion in terms of privacy, security, maintanability, etc?

crawls out of gnu logo-shaped hole

I use icecat and it's pretty nice, main issue is you have to manually approve all JavaScript scripts and cross-site requests manually, so it makes visiting almost any website for the first time a pain in the ass.

Luckily most stuff is concentrated to a few sites and I use private frontends liberally so it's not a huge pain.
