Why aren't Waterfox or LibreWolf found in F-Droid? (reddthat.com)

Are there any alternative app stores that do list them? I might just go to apkpure to side load, but it's annoying these often-recommended browsers aren't available there.

Alternatively, are there any browsers preexisting in F-Droid any of you recommend?

Just got a phone and just installed lineage OS.

Edit: FOUND IT in case anyone is looking https://github.com/BrowserWorks/waterfox-android/releases list of APKs here

Thank you! Will check this out

Edit: went to the gitlab page which had a link to F-Droid which shows you to add repository and then download. A couple steps but super easy of anyone is looking! Ironfox says based on Mull browser.
