I’ve used Firefox for years.

1) what alternatives (won’t use chrome or microsoft) should i consider?

2) how do I move my bookmarks from firefox to the new browser?

TIA

You’re not paying Firefox when you use it. I don’t know if it’s a priority to find an alternative, but maybe there are.

Brave is a great browser. I've been using it for years. It has a bookmark importer tool under settings. This tool also will import passwords and browsing history. Good luck.

I use Opera. It has an ad blocker and free VPN.

1. Try Brave. It really is a good, fast, secure browser.

2. Check out this video on how to migrate bookmarks and settings into Brave: t.ly/agwr

Good luck!

Chrome is prolly your best bet. It’s open source and developed by people of all stripes. And it will have the latest security patches.

Save Safari and Firefox, you won’t find a modern browser that’s not built on chrome.

Brave does it from Edge and IE, anyway. I am trying it out right now.

Pale Moon or Brave. Chrome collects personal data so I wouldn’t use it.

To export bookmarks from Firefox:
Click Bookmarks, then Show all Bookmarks.
Click Import and Backup.
Choose Export Bookmarks to HTML
Select a location to save the file and give the file a descriptive name
Click Save

I moved to Edge. You can import your favorites to Edge. Very easy and works great. Everytime Mozzilla does an update my favorites get moved.Now that they have exposed themselves as NWO/deepstate/, done with them
