Hi im looking for a european alternative for my browser. I understand that basically all browser are either chromium or Firefox based. I heard mozilla is also going through their own enshittificafion so im looking for a european alternatieve

I would probably still prefer a Firefox based browser over a chromium based one, because … you know… Google.

Ive find librewolf to be the only real alternative but also heard good things about Zen Browser. But for The life of me, I cannot find where ‘The zen browser team’ Company is based or operaties from.

Does any one know this? Any other tips or suggestions are also welcome.

Zen browser is an open source project based on Firefox, there's no company behind it, just random people all over the world.

As of a few weeks ago it is correct

Before that it was all one dude maubg on reddit. Dude is Spanish for as much as I could find out.

I found Zen when it was pre alpha. Because I loved Arc but didn't like how the browser company pushed Ai.

I was never a browser poweruser, but zen has made me one. Really loving it so far coming from Firefox.

Really love(d) using it too the last week, but I can't live with the horrendous font rendering. Especially small/thin or light text on dark background (darkmode themes). Luckily the latest FF releases are adding a lot of vertical tab related functionality, theres tab groups and you can hide the title bar now.
