I would like to add Librewolf, which is = Firefox - (Mozilla tracking/recommendations) + security hardening
Don't expect it to behave like a normal browser. If you think some feature is disabled, it's to avoid browser fingerprinting, not because it's buggy. Read their FAQ before committing to the browser.
I never got on with librewolf, it just feels like one of those things that doesn't really benefit me much and needlessly makes life harder
Use Librewolf if
If these are not your requirements, stick with Firefox. When you switch to Librewolf, you have to give up some QoL features (dark mode, adaptable screen size and more). Unfortunately, privacy in the modern web requires some sacrifice.
