In July 2023, Alex Kontos announced that Waterfox had been turned into an independent project again. In December 2019, System1, an advertising company which portrays itself as privacy-focused, acquired Waterfox.

Storm was developed with over £2 million of investor funding and powered by Yahoo! Search. įrom Jto November 12, 2015, Waterfox had its own search-engine called 'Storm' that would raise funds for charity and Waterfox. The Mac build was introduced on with the release of version 38.0, the Linux build was introduced on Decemwith the release of version 50.0, and an Android build was first introduced on Octoin version 55.2.2. Waterfox was first released by Alex Kontos on Mafor 64-bit Windows. The developer states that ' changes between versions so numerous between ESRs making merging difficult if not impossible'.

Waterfox Classic has multiple unpatched security advisories. However, its development has been separated due to several changes from Waterfox that are otherwise unapplicable. It is still partially maintained with fixes and patches from Waterfox and Firefox ESR releases. Waterfox Classic is a version of the browser based on an older version of the Gecko engine that supports legacy XUL and XPCOM add-on capabilities that Firefox removed in version 57. However, it collects technical information about the user's device to update properly. It disables telemetry and Pocket by default, which are present in Firefox builds. It is also compatible with Google Chrome and Opera extensions.

Waterfox shares core features and technologies like the Gecko browser engine and support for Firefox Add-ons with Firefox. It was initially created to provide official 64-bit support, back when Firefox was only available for 32-bit systems. There are official Waterfox releases for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It claims to be ethical and user-centric, emphasizing performance and privacy. Waterfox is a free and open-source web browser and fork of Firefox. Web browser, mobile web browser, feed reader
