@jackwilliambell I am not aware of any issues with Waterfox!

I am also not aware of:

- Who creates Waterfox?
- What procedures does Waterfox follow to create the Waterfox build from the Firefox branch?
- How do I feel confident that the build servers Waterfox uses to make binaries are not compromised by a nation-state intelligence agency?

Perhaps someone somewhere knows the answer to these questions. I don't! I once spoke to someone who claimed to know and approve of the Waterfox project lead
