Please stop adding bloat to my browser. I have nothing against VPN, but it's not a fucking core feature of a web browser. Put that stuff in an extension that I can install if I want.
They should make a "Firefox Core" which contains only the browser with basic features, and then make another version which contains all the "fun" stuff.

Install LibreWolf then disable the cookie clearing and resistFingerprinting.
