Firefox AI is the last straw for me. Where do I go?
I've been using Firefox for years because more popular browsers like Chrome and Edge have anti-features I dislike. In recent years, however, it feels like Mozilla has been more eager to follow trends set up by it's larger competitors even when those trends seem destructive to the principles that used to be at the core of this project. AI is the final straw for me. I don't understand why I would even use Firefox over Chrome if both are full of AI anyways. Even if AI wasn't a deal-breaker for me, I'm worried Firefox will make similar decisions later. I want out.
Is there any good and maintained alternatives to Firefox? Something like how Firefox was just a handful of years ago? Maybe a fork of an old version?

I've heard of LibreWolf being good. Might be a place to start?
The problem being it's a fork of Firefox. It's quite literally Firefox with only a few tweaks; it even receives the same updates. If Firefox decides to shoot itself on the forehead with a shotgun, Librewolf most probably won't save us. A real alternative might be Vivaldi, because it also isn't based on chromium. But I haven't used it, so I can't really vouch for it.
Thank you for your feedback, we really do appreciate it
Please be assured that Firefox will always remain a browser built around user control. That includes AI with increased user controls being made available in the first quarter of 2026. Choice matters and demonstrating our commitment to choice is how we build and maintain trust.
