FireFox was enhittified even before the AI bits: it fucking spies on you

That's why I use LibreWolf , which is literally just the latest-stable FF build, but with all the AI and telemetry ripped out, uBlock Origin and anti-fingerprinting enabled by default.

It's literally what FireFox was supposed to be. And they don't even accept money . God level.

But there is no mobile version, and their FAQ says it's unlikely to happen. Instead they point to IronFox, which I presume is nowhere close to feature equivalent to Firefox.

which I presume is nowhere close to feature equivalent to Firefox.

why do you presume that?

I'm personally quite partial to Fennec.

I've been using Fennec for a while and it's been a great experience. Much good. Do recommend.

IronFox, Fennec and Privacy Browser are all decent as far as mobile Firefox, on GrapheneOS I like to use mostly Vanadium and Privacy Browser
