Yes, @SecureKongo talked about that in another thread, for newbies (like me) maybe is better go with LibreWolf or Brave, hardener needs knowledge and know how and what need to be edited.These tests are done straight after install without any hardening.
Firefox can get the same results as LibreWolf but you will have to read up on how to keep Arkenfox settings up to date. With LibreWolf they did most of the work for you but the downside of LibreWolf is that there is no auto-update function and even if there was you are always a few days behind.
Brave has impressive out of the box results and would be my choice if you want a Chromium browser.
Between LibreWolf and Firefox, I would harden Firefox and disable telemetry but it's a little more work because you have to look at the hardening change log each release and run the tools.
LibreWolf is more convenient but you have to trust the developers and be sure to check for updates manually.

I will pass on Brave
The so called "privacy-safe browser" that mails you a letter to your house with a unique tracking code

Brave is also mostly focused on crypto, big red flag. I don’t care about telemetry, and am skeptical of anything that pushes crypto so hard.
