Why would your trust in Mozilla have anything to do with using this browser? Do you trust google more than Mozilla or why would you use a chromium based browser instead?
Why would your trust in Mozilla have anything to do with using this browser?
Browsers based on Firefox are at the mercy of Mozilla. If Mozilla once again delivers a new function that is directed against privacy, those who develop Firefox-based browsers must either deactivate this function or also deliver it. And this is not always clearly documented. And Mozilla has simply acted against my interests too often - I no longer even trust LibreWolf.
(Leaving this aside, I also fail to see any advantage of Zen over Vivaldi.)
Same thing can be said about Vivaldi, which is based on chromium (Google). Also like you said they (librewolf, zen) can disable privacy invasive features, what they do, just like chromium based browsers do (or do not) remove google tracking
Zen is open source and has no tracking by default compared to Vivaldi and will continue to support the web request api
I recommend trying zen (not stable yet) when it releases, it’s has a lot of Vivaldis features, but is based on Firefox and open source
Ew. No, thank you. Seriously, Mozilla has completely destroyed all trust in Firefox.
So is Vivaldi.

Vivaldi is only partially open source https://vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-browser-open-source/
