This is a link to a diff of Firefox where the FAQ are stored in a structured way. In the diff it can be seen that the question "Does Firefox sell your personal data?" has been removed:

        {  
            "@type": "Question",  
            "name": "Does Firefox sell your personal data?",  
            "acceptedAnswer": {  
                "@type": "Answer",  
                "text": "Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from  
                        many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed  
                        to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "  
            }  
        },

People in the comments are asking if the definition of the word "neven" has been changed or what's going on.

I keep seeing librewolf mentioned, so I’ve begun making the switch.

Is it possible to copy a profile over so sessions/tabs continue? Just curious. I am a tab hoarder.

I tried librewolf, the problem is that it is too strict to the point that some websites don't function and I couldn't for some reason make the extension symbol show up. So it need some configuration before you are able to use it functionaly compared to Firefox.

You can change the settings to be less strict. It is better to start strict and work backwards.

I already tried strict in Firefox many websites don't work.
