It won't change your search engine if you've set something else as your default. So just set it to what you want and then you're free to update Waterfox.

After countless experiences of having settings reverted back to defaults upon updating, and having updates always coming with surprises like a Kinder Joy Surprise in the 00s, I doubt something wouldn't end up smuggled like soldiers ("Agentic agents!") inside a seemingly innocuous wooden monument. For example, the Waterfox version I'm using as of now (6.6.10) doesn't seem to ship with the "Firefox's VeRy HeLpFuL AgEnTiC bRoWsEr™ features" which can't exactly be prevented from eventually bleeding through its forks, and this includes Waterfox. If it didn't yet, it'll do eventually as soon as Googl... I mean, Mozilla, makes it part of non-removable binary blobs within the upstream.

At this point, my only browser update will be when Servo browser finally debuts as an usable browser for daily web browsing affairs.

FR, I too salivate for browser market competition, tire of everything being Chromium or GECKO.

Maybe the Year of the Linux wil hasten it.
