Ok, this fork of Firefox actually is pretty great:

@zenbrowser@fosstodon.org is Firefox under the hood, but with a UX more like Arc. It’s already had over 2 million downloads. I am trying it out for a week as my primary browser and will report back.

@bluGill@fedia.io @rumschlumpel@feddit.org So far, the "evil" is not in the Firefox codebase. It's only in the Mozilla privacy policy.

Removing actual bad things from the Chromium codebase has proven to be very difficult to maintain.

We need more browser competition.

Switching to a Chromium-based browser (Arc, Brave, Vivaldi, Edge, et al) does not increase browser competition. It just further strengthens Google’s ability to control the web as a platform.

We don’t need a fork of Firefox.
