I have been using Librewolf browser. I like it. Based on Firefox and can use FF addons but hardened at it's base. And it has built in canvas defense.

I've been enjoying Lynx lately. Doesn't work for everything, and it stands out like driving a Sherp through downtown, but it's definitely a nice way to flip the bird to the Matrix. Also, I have figured out how to change the user-agent in wget, so you can scrape pages from many websites. Note that there are ways for CloudFlare to detect this (that's one reason why they do those "stop-and-frisk" brower-checks) but if you're just pulling down a bunch of data-files and want to blend in, you can usually get away with it. VPN of course, so you don't get yourself IP-blocked.

You can get the user-agent string that your FF uses by going somewhere in about:config, just search online to find it.

wget --header="Accept: text/html" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/116.0" <YOUR_URL_HERE>

Thank you for spendimg the time to go investigate it more. :)

I'm starting to have some problems with it now. I think they may be trying to fix stuff that ain't broken. Tinkerers got to tinker, It is compulsive I guess.

I don't understand the technicals enough, but from the discussions the Librewolf guys were very frustrated by changes in upstream Firefox that they have no control over.

It's not them deciding to be twits.
