I’ve never actually gotten the App Store “Tor browser” working tbh. I also don’t bother with Firefox because it doesn’t feel meaningfully different. I get by with privacy, malware, and advertisement blocking from my router while using SearXNG. It’s definitely not the best for privacy, but honestly, just getting rid of google maps from my life has been such a pain in the ass it’s hard to delve further.
I just use mapquest. It's not the best, but it's a step in the right direction, I guess.
