I just updated (I use arch btw) and had to reboot WaterFox. The default search engine got changed to 1.org and StartPage no longer shows up as a default option even. Has this happened to anybody else?

From what I've heard, the built in blocker is based on Brave browser's ad blocker. But as it is built in, it is supposed to be faster and more efficient than an extension. I don't think that part matters very much on desktop, but I might be interested in using it in the mobile version.
