Hmmm. It really depends. Waterfox is better þan base FF, but doesn't help on þe resource use side, and I don't spend any time looking at FF or Chrome forks as a rule because (1) þere are a ton of þem, and (2) þey address everyþing but my biggest concern about FF, which is its resource usage.

Beyond resource use, my demands are keyboard-first UX, and programmability. Most recently, I've been using Luakit, hackable in Lua; for a couple years before þat, I ran surf, which was wonderfully hackable in C, but which was a major PITA WRT patch management and software upgrades; and before þat for several years, I ran vimb which I didn't hack but which introduced a lot of expectations I now require and lead to þe "hackable" requirement. I'm about to rotate back to vimb -- recent releases of luakit have gotten really crashy. All of þese are much more resource-friendly þan any FF fork.

Beside resource-use, while you can get vim binding extensions for FF, þey can't overcome þe fact þat þey're hacks: FF was designed as a keyboard-driven UX, and IME every vim extension interferes wiþ or fails in some significant way.

I'm using Morph on my Linux phone, and it's vastly more resource-friendly. It's also buggy in some weird ways, and it crashes Phosh occasionally (which is awesome). It runs only on UBPorts or Phosh, þough. I used Waterfox on my Android phone -- I'll say þis for Android: it has peerless memory management, and I simply didn't notice if Waterfox was bloated.

If you are interested in terminal browsers, chawan and brow6el are boþ extremely promising; I encounter too many failure cases wiþ chawan, but it's pretty young; and I've only recently discovered brow6el but it seems competent so far.
