Versie 2020.05 van Waterfox is uitgekomen. Waterfox is een webbrowser gebaseerd op de broncode van Firefox. Het project is in 2011 gestart door de toentertijd 16-jarige Alex Kontos en was een van de eerste 64bit-browsers op de markt. Er zijn twee versies beschikbaar van de browser. Waterfox Classic is gebaseerd op de legacy code, heeft nog steeds ondersteuning voor npapi-plugins en krijgt nog alleen beveiligingsupdates en bugfixes. Waterfox Current is gebaseerd op de moderne broncode, heeft geen plugin whitelist en stuurt geen telemetrie naar Mozilla of Waterfox. De changelog voor deze uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:
