Need advice: What browser would you recommend for someone who wants to sync between Linux, Mac and iOS

Betterfox: User.js to harden Firefox and optimize privacy, security, and speed
> Most of the preferences in this will actually reduce the target-able attack surface
Can you point to anything specific that reduces the attack surface?
When looking at the "securefox" config, it does a bunch of strange things, like enabling embedded TikTok links (https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/443710b0738ebc8f...) and disabling UITour (https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/443710b0738ebc8f...) which Firefox uses to highlight menus and is only accessible by approved Mozilla domains (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/app/per...).
It's a very strange mix of configs.
