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

Vivaldi isn’t open source. Not sure I’d trust that from a privacy perspective.

You can, part of the script corresponding to its UI is proprietary, but UI code is written in plain, accessible code for those who read HTML, CSS and JS and even moddeable by the user, but can’t be forked legally by Chrome or EDGE (🖕) nor by other browsers. It`s something like open proprietary freeware. There are no logs, tracking or any other crap. nor third party investors. Sync ee2e no-knowledge. The rest is OpenSource with several different licenses, specificated in the source package. As all other browser, collecting anonym statistical data (country for lenguage settings, OS, needed tecnical data)

I believe the term you’re looking for might be “source-available”

Yes, something like this, despite not fully OpenSource, it’s pretty trustworth because of this, there is nothing shady or hidden in Vivaldi.
