I switched to Firefox 6 months ago and it’s working much better than Chromium for me, I do have some minor complaints but for the most part it’s been equivalent or better.

Which telemetry, specifically? Anything you can’t find in the standard settings menu can be found in about:config. There are plenty of articles with huge lists of settings to adjust in about:config with explanations on what different values do.
thanks for the link, there were a few options in about:config that I hadn’t set to false
although even after going through all those Firefox says Telemetry is collecting release data and upload is disabled. so even if it’s not being sent it appears that it’s still being collected. (about:telemetry)
maybe it will change after reboot, I will edit later if that’s the case.
