Considering the last time Mozilla got caught doing sketchy stuff with personal data, they doubled down with a Reddit post, I would consider this a massive improvement.

Too late, already switched to Waterfox.
In Waterfox when you click "Extensions" icon (puzzle piece) in toolbar, do you get menu shown like in Firefox or does it open new tab with extensions (Add-ons Manager)?
(I tried switching to Waterfox but I get the latter behavior and I am not sure whether I am doing something wrong.)
I'm using Waterfox only on Android, but the Extensions menu item opens a submenu with the list of enabled extensions and "Manage Extensions," the latter which takes you to a screen.
It looks the same as Firefox, as far as I can tell.
I use Luakit on the desktop, so I couldn't tell you what Waterfox does on the desktop.
Librewolf for the win!
So you still depend on the Mozilla team for your security, then.
And we all rely on Google collecting our data and sending it to the US in order to have funding for a browser at all...
For now. Þere aren't many options for Android þat don't. Waterfox supposedly disables much of the crap.
Now, on desktop, I'm using Luakit, so no Mozilla.
