Android is now warning of Firefox sharing data

Found this notification this morning on my pixel 6.
Google: "Forcing us to divest Chrome could have impacts on our ability to support Mozilla and their high executive salaries as we own the space with Chrome."
Also Google:

With F-droid you trust F-droid to build the binary from the developers' source code
Not when using a self-hosted F-Droid Repo - which is the case for Ironfox.
Yeah that's like any 3rd party repository
-
No GDPR does not require google to display app permissions like that...
Your just making things up.
Show me where I made something up, boss. Or do you not know what "probably" means?
-
Alright gang, what are some good open source Firefox forks available on Android and Linux?
Waterfox
-
Fennec is great on Android
I've been pretty happy with it as my casual web search browser, putting all my social media on a different browser. And it's in F-Droid, so that always feels good.

Librewolf for Linux. And ironfox on android

Do you? Because made up satistics are still made up.
This is how misinformation starts.
If your not sure, google it before commenting. For the sanity of the internet.

Do you want the short or the long version?
A link to it will do
-
Have you read all the other replies? "Google mad", "Google putting Firefox in the dirt", "False info", etc.
I interpret top level comments as responses to OP unless they say something otherwise.

No. Maybe don't just take something that someone you've never met on the internet said might be true as fact? Maybe you should fucking Google it.
I mean seriously, the tone of my comment was pretty clear. Do you really need me to explain the connotations of "probably," and "everything good comes from it"?
I make an off hand comment that is clearly not an attempt to be informative, and you come in all aggressive. Chill the fuck out.

Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt. It’s more commonly used in crypto communities.

I'm not saying your doing it intentionally.
Bur it is how it starts.
Edit the person I replied to didn't use probably. Then you came in with a probably statement. That's how miss information starts. People supporting bullshit with "probably"

Waterfox

I personally don't want there to be only one browser engine - Chrome. All other browsers use their engine, or the one powering Firefox. That's actually my main concern. I don't know about you, but Chromium being the only web browser in the world is pretty fuckin scary.
-
Do you have F-Droid installed? Not to pull a docker, but it is opening for me on 2 separate devices.
You must add the repo first using this link
-
It has a mozilla telemetry component, but that doesn't mean that it's necessarily reporting to mozilla - which wouldn't make much sense anyway - nor that it actually functions at all. Most telemetry components in Firefox can't simply be deleted because it causes stuff to break, so they are replaced with stubs that don't actually do anything.

fennec vs ironfox opinions?
I would love to see a real comparison.
