What is Floorp?

Floorp is a browser based on Mozilla Firefox, built for keeping the open, private and sustainable web alive. Its README says it runs on Windows 10 or later, macOS 10.15 or later and Debian-based and Arch-based Linux, and it includes a userChromeCSS loader and the Firefox UI Fix project. The project says it is not affiliated with Mozilla.

Third-party open-source projects. We are not affiliated with their authors; repositories are provided as-is by their maintainers. Review each project's license, code and security before installing. See our Disclaimer.

Pros: what Floorp does well

  • Based on Firefox, so familiar to use
  • Appearance can be customised with CSS
  • Installs through winget, Homebrew, Flatpak and more

Cons: where it falls short

  • Not made by Mozilla, so it is a separate project from Firefox
  • Windows builds are 64-bit x86 only

Who Floorp is for

Firefox fans who want extra customisation and a privacy focus.

Who can skip it

People who are happy with their current browser.
