This website is entirely crowdsourced and not privacy oriented, so there's going to be a lot of potentially irrelevant alternatives in that list. I wouldn't recommend using it as a destination to finding a new browser. It's a good website to start at, but not one to finish at

Anyone have comments on Waterfox or DuckDuckGo?

Waterfox sounded cool so I installed it but it relies on a Mozilla account to store passwords and sync across devices. How is that an alternative?

[–] LWD@lemm.ee 6 points 20 hours ago

Many browsers just keep Mozilla's Sync. It's optional and, IIRC, you can run your own server. Or just ignore the option.

definitely not all of them, and listing Firefox Developer Edition as an alternative in this context is... quite low effort.

So the question is valid, but this page is damn near useless and not even close to thorough.
