Actually, IMO, the browser isolation (aka compartmentalization) is still not that good because all browsers still using the same laptop/PC having the same hardware unless you fake the hardware info for each browser.
What are some examples of those privacy invading data may I ask? Mozilla explicitly says in its documentation what type of data it collects.
I'm referring to telemetry data or any other data that are being sent back to Mozilla. If you want to de-Moziila to the core then you'll need the user.js file to do it. This is to improve your privacy/security/speed. In return, it may break sites, so you'll need to customize it.What are some examples of those privacy invading data may I ask?

So, you don't trust Mozilla at all which is valid. But why then using Firefox?
I use FF as an alternative to Chrome/Chromium browser. However, like in using Ungoogled Chromium, I try to de-Mozilla it as well.
Yes ghacks user.js breaks many things but I now i use the settings given on PrivacyTools about: config tweaks. These settings don't break things but are they good enough?
Yes, I'm aware of those settings for I'm using them. There are more settings on the net which you can search and use like from below

I don't think so as they e.g. recommend
privacy.resistFingerprinting = true which is from Tor browser and not designed for Firefox.
Nothing new. Absurdity was already reached quite some time ago.

These "annoying" banner improve your privacy so you can (and must) first configure like you want it.
Isn't this opt-in which means as long as you don't accept it, it shouldn't matter if you block all banner related content altogether. Anyway one can use a cosmetic filter too.
What I meant is, on Firefox for Android I can use uBlock Origin with required annoyance filter which get rid of these cookie notices for me. Similar to PC, but I can't do that on Chrome/Edge on Android.
Yes and on Android I can do that by using uBlock Origin on Firefox which is not possible with other browsers at the moment.
I think Opera for Android also removes those prompts...
Totally forgot about Opera. I haven't used it in a while. But I can't use Opera either. The reason is Opera or any domain owned by Opera is blocked in my country. The reason is hilarious. Government blocked all porn sites in the country around 2 years ago. So many users switched to Opera to use its built in VPN to get pass the government block to access those sites. So, from last year they completely blocked Opera as if no one knows how to use other external VPN
I heard they may undo the Opera block this year.If you are referring to those cookie consent messages, currently, UC and FF browsers don't have this feature built-in. You can either add filters or extensions to rid them. Using extension like 'I don't care about cookies' is more effective than using filter

Accepting cookie notifications of the same site is time consuming and annoying · Issue #9338 · brave/brave-browser
Have you searched for similar issues? Yes. Description It's becoming really frustrating having to constantly select 'Accept' for cookie notifications, especially when you're doing it over and over ...
Not on every sites. Many still use opt-out with the same popup.
