I came across a Tumblr post detailing how to disable AI "features" in Firefox as of 11/20/25 and I'm expecting an arms race of new/changed fields vs new strategies to disable them. So I wanted to ask, what would you recommend a lifelong Firefox user use, for PC and Android?

Stick with Firefox for now.

Some FF forks like LibreWolf break sites because they are too strict. That isn't a critique, that's just how LibreWolf works and if your threat model requires it, go for it.

You can toggle the flags or use a userjs like arkenfox or betterfox. Eventually they might also enable these flags.

On Android I like Privacy Browser, but it takes getting used to (I like being logged out when I close the browser in case someone uses my phone).

I just installed librewolf on my Linux laptop and you can customize how strict it is in the settings. There's a librewolf setting group in the settings to adjust the fork customizations that they have made.
