    Criticisms.

    • I can’t see it having anything to do with KDE, so it feels like they’re falsely banking on their trust by starting the name with a K.
    • Downstream software is rarely more secure than upstream (due to update delays and lower built-up trust).
    • uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger? You don’t really need both do you.

    All that aside, there are things I like:

    • It’s based on Firefox ESR, the best version of Firefox.
    • RemoteSettings is disabled. This has been a real concern for me because it makes it possible to compromise my desktop, enable the syncing of extensions, and infect my laptop with malware via a compromised extension.

      I can’t see it having anything to do with KDE, so it feels like they’re falsely banking on their trust by starting the name with a K.

      there’s absolutely no reason to think that it would; lots of software projects begin with a K.
