Away to what? Where can an upset long time Firefox user go? hardly to Chrome or Edge.
There's nowhere better; Firefox may not be optimum, but if you don't want rebranded Google crap, you have basically no choice.
Maybe there's Safari, Epiphany, Konqueror: but only one of these is serious and it requires you to be willing to buy a Mac - which is clearly an easier choice than Google for an anti-Googling estranged Firefox user - but still not a likely choice if the reason you're leaving Firefox is they took away your options.
Epiphany took away all its options years ago, and now it's main purpose is to be replaced with Firefox.
I've barely used Konqi, but it doesn't seem like it's any more viable than Epiphany. It looks like it fell out of a 1990s office suite.
(Web browsers can be as light on memory as they want, but since they're not programs but rather runtimes for a specific programming language, they're always going to put a huge demand on your memory. Unless you change the JS programming model, they will be your biggest app.)
