So you’re taking the best aspects of any fork you can find? Trust in the developers is an essential part of the question.

If a piece of software passes every audit in the whole world, but is developed and maintained by the NSA, you’d be stupid to leave your data with it.

Let me save you a lot of time and effort:

• No, it isn’t.

Your findings will either be an incredibly lengthy wording of that, or they will simply be wrong. It’s not a complex question.

Install Firefox with default settings > Look at your new tab page. They’re all sponsored ads.

Firefox on mobile collects data and sends it off for marketing purposes, this can’t be turned off.

Forces ads in my face via Firefox. Sometimes promotes commercial control of the internet. Is borderline for-profit at this stage with all the moneygrubbing and issues that comes with.

Don’t get me wrong, they’re the best of the lot by a long long way, but they’re still problematic.

To be honest, I think the internet is in desperate need of an alternative to the Chrome/Mozilla/Safari trio. Why can I can no longer get a browser that doesn’t shove ads in my face and/or track my every move?

I know this isn’t being designed as a browser for everyone. But I’m pleased to see making a web browser isn’t an un-enterable area yet.
