I am currently using Librewolf.

But Zen & floorp browser looks beautiful.

What do you suggest?

I personally like the looks of Zen.

I would also appreciate any tips to make Zen more secure than it already is.

Edit: consider this too

That only seems relevant if one uses the defaults, and if you care about privacy you probably don’t, so idk what’s the goal of this little experiment other than just curiosity.

It’d be a whole lot more useful if it was “here’s the connections these browsers made after enabling all privacy-preserving settings they offer”.

Privacy needs to be the default in order to be recommended, in my opinion.

A lot of users care about privacy but find it unattainable due to technical difficulties.

That’s my point, checking a few boxes in the settings is the bare minimum if you care about it, so idk what’s the value in comparing defaults.

And privacy is often a tradeoff, if a browser doesn’t have the strictest by default, it’s probably because the ones who forked it didn’t consider it a good tradeoff.
