"Major Browser"
Would Mozilla even exist without all the Google money over the years?
I switched back to Firefox vanilla after years of Chrome. Can you, or other power users, suggest alternate versions of FF/ other plugins more advanced or useful than Ublock? I haven't had the time/energy to dig for it and would appreciate an upgrade path to get me up to date with privacy and more advanced ad blocking.
Thanks!

You don't really need anything else. Frankly, the guy you're replying to is being a whiny bitch about this. FF + uBlock is plenty - all you have to do is spend 60 seconds configuring it.
Toggle FF's AI killswitch to the "enabled" option, set your default search engine to whatever you prefer, and turn on uBlock's "annoyances" list. That's it.
I like the Zen browser, its really unique but pretty cool
