I believe very similar. I like that librefox is 'out of the box' secure(ish) and easy for everyone without dealing with Firefox templates. I generally trust privacytools.io and they have a note in regards to Firefox that says "Hardening & Tweaking: The default settings of Firefox are not the best choice to be a privacy respecting browser. Use Firefox Profilemaker to adjust the settings. An alternative is to download the hardened Arkenfox's user.js - Place this in your Firefox's user.js directory and it will fix everything for you. You can also do it manually.
Mozilla decided to include a unique download token in downloads from the Firefox website and uses telemetry to send the token and assign users with IDs. However, releases from the Mozilla FTP doesn't include the token. If you don't like any of this circus, choose LibreWolf instead."
