The Firefox forks that I use:

  • LibreWolf ships with uBlockOrigin by default.
  • Zen browser for power users who want lots of out of the box features and customization. An especially excellent browser for users who migrate from Vivaldi. Caveat, as with most feature-rich things, the line between bloat and feature can be a bit blurred.

Fyi, you won't be able to watch videos on Zen if you're on Windows. (Yes, you use Arch btw, and wouldn't be caught dead using Microslop products, thank you random commenter from the future. :^) )

Videos work fine.

I found Zen to be lightweight, actually. It seems to use a hair less RAM than vanilla FF, and the UI can be extremely minimal.
