I hear that both CloudFlare is privacy respectful and that it spies on site visitors (with their CDN). What’s your thoughts on this matter?

    Any fork will lack behind in updates, that includes security updates. This can really affect your security when a zero-day vulnerability is discovered and the development team hasn’t pushed the latest patch yet.

    Does that mean that you shouldn’t use FF forks? Not at all. Firefox is neither the most private, nor secure web browser out-of-the-box, anyone claiming such a thing does not know what they’re talking about.

    Recommending Librewolf to someone that wants to take their privacy seriously is a great idea in my opinion, but claiming that it is more secure than Firefox is sort of misleading.

      Just use UXP based browsers.

      Security updates are handled in a different way and they just take advantage of the Firefox ones because are already there but these are incorporated in the own source code before each release or are provided by them.
