dont donate to moz lmfao if you look at the source code they collect absolutely everything, just use librewolf + betterfox.js/arkenfox.js
They collect everything? I'm on mint. I want extensions, and not have to run my browser like I need to tweak an OS. I just want it to work. What do I use?

if user.js editing is too much of a pain then get plain librewolf, go to settings and enable history-saving:
search bar 'history' > scroll to 'history' > disable 'clear history when librewolf closes'.
supports extensions just fine too! :)
https://librewolf.net/installation/linux/ installation for mint
edit: why the downvotes? i cited a good source for my claims.
edit 2: hackernews post about plain firefox being spyware, mental outlaw's video on the topic and eric murphy's video on this.
oh, thanks for the information! it appears i was mistaken :}
