Well… If you’re okay with a unique browser ID for each installation or using a browser that contacts a 3rd party analytics company no matter your settings then Firefox is for you. Just fire Wireshark and see for yourself how much snitching Firefox does.
Also Mozilla isn’t what people paint it to be, they’ve shady finances and are now hosting code at Github. Mozilla allegedly stands for a bunch of stuff that is be definition incompatible with hosting code on GitHub as it is
If you’re serious about having a decent browser pick Ungoggled Chromium or LibreWolf.
The thing with Firefox is that while you’re absolutely right on all your points, it’s the only mainstream browser that at least tries to care for your privacy, much more so than the current big players, and something that has the best chance of having computer “normies” switch to. You won’t get them onto LibreWolf, Ungoogled Chromium, IceCat, Mullvad Browser, not in mass. If you push everyone to one of those super privacy browsers where pages may not load correctly and they’re generally more clunky, then that’s just turning them further to stick with what they know, Chrome/Edge.
I don’t like touting companies, but at least for the current time I still recommend Firefox for those wanting to switch, and later on if they really care about privacy then a switch to LibreWolf isn’t as jarring.
Then I hope you enjoy spyware.

Tor is also nice, even though it’s part Firefox.
