Do you use any forks instead of default Firefox? If yes, which ones and why?

I switched to Waterfox some time back. Switching was quite painless.

And I use waterfox as well on mobile.

Absolutely same, but I've been switching from Opera. I was kind-of veteran Firefox user but my primary browser for many years was Opera. By 2025, Firefox became slow and bloated as hell, even it's visual design (on mobile at least). I've tried a couple of forks, but they were either slow or ugly in my opinion. But Waterfox was not slow and it's look is exactly what I need: modern but not bloated. So I switched immediately.
