        Librewolf has sync disabled, but if you enable that it’s as easy as signing in. If it goes to shit like you’re worried about, you still have it syncing

          I’m not worried about data loss. Honestly, the only feature I actually care about from sync is open tabs and recent history, since I’ll often open something on one device that I was using on another. I don’t really use bookmarks or saved passwords.

          My main concern is security. I don’t want my machines to be susceptible to malware, and with browsers being very complex, I want to make sure the dev team is very responsive in shipping security updates.

          The main reason I use IronFox on my phone is that it works with FDroid, which is important because I don’t have Google Play running on my main profile (I use GapheneOS). If the flatpak is updated within a few days of Firefox consistently, that’s good enough. But if it takes weeks or more, that’s too much.
