In which way Waterfox is better than regular Firefox? What it can do that the original browser cannot do? You can disable AI integration (although I think it's useful) and telemetry by yourself.

In my experience, Waterfox is a bit buggier and lags behind the security patches. I don't see any practical reason to switch from Firefox.

It's not better than Firefox in anyway and it's owned by an ad company.

You can do that in vanilla firefox as well. Though it's on by default.

Not anymore. The official website specifies that:
>"(...) After returning to independent ownership in 2023, it is now developed and operated by BrowserWorks Ltd, a holding company that is wholly owned by Alex (the original creator)."
