I was a Waterfox Classic user for a few years, while I weaned myself off classic extensions, and I'm grateful for that option. Then it started to lag more and more behind in development, and an increasing number of sites were broken in it, so I went back to vanilla Firefox, but now I wonder if I'll return to Waterfox if this LLM-craze continues...
I use Safari on Mac and can tell you that more and more sites are breaking when I have content blockers and privacy features enabled. It feels like the days when sites were developed for IE and barely functioned on other browsers.
you can try floorp, librewolf? ironfox breaks some sites you only do in PRIVATE , but majority are just fine.
Thanks for the recs!
Zen has been pretty cool too, if you don't mind the atypical UI
I can relate to multiple sites breaking on classic; having used the main browser for a few years now I can't recall any sites breaking on it (at least all the major sites I use, twitch and banking are the big two I remember not working on classic but both are fine now).
