Should I look for an alternative to firefox in Fedora? (self.linux)

I've been seeing a lot of information lately about mozilla, and a lot of questionable claims being made about their "direction." The bulk of their revenue comes from google, and I have been working very hard to de-google everything I can. I have moved away from drive, gmail, search, etc.

I am using Fedora on all my computers, and am logged into firefox on each of them so I have complete sync with all my devices. Are the posts I am seeing blown out of proportion, or should I be looking for another browser?

Thanks in advance!

I've been using Librewolf for quite some time now and am genuinely very happy with it. All the big distros package it, so it's not hard to install. You can scale up/down how private you want your experience and then see how that breaks sites if that's a concern for you.
