So if Mozilla is turning into mozzarella, what’s the best next alternative?

There are a few browsers/browser engines in the works, but right now you could try a Firefox fork

Just started with waterfox today, seems pretty good so far

I would be wary. iirc, water fox was owned by an ad agency for a few years

And now it’s not. The original developer bought it back a couple of years ago.

The bigger issue is that, like with all of the Firefox forks, it’s still using the Firefox code base and security updates, which is what’s about to go absolutely sideways. Removing the AI translator is one thing, but it sounds like they’re planning on totally fucking it all up at its core.

With no usable Firefox to use as a base, all of the forks are set to die on the vine.
