I've been pretty happy with LibreWolf for a few months now, which has similar goals, but delivered in a less flashy package. My first instinct is to distrust this based on the flashiness alone.
For someone who's tried both: any reasons I should consider switching or not?
According to [this page][1] Zen is slightly faster than LibreWolf. But honestly, performance has been acceptable for me, so it's not something that would compel me to switch.

- ranguna 2y agoLooking at Zen's landing page, Zen seems to have more of a focus on visual customization, whilst Librewolf is just Firefox with better privacy. Personally I've never felt the need to customise the visuals of Firefox, so I'll stick with Librewolf.
