Although there are no official Debian repositories for Waterfox, it can be installed from a repsoitory with APT.
Repository: opensuse.org
Therefore use this commands:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install software-properties-common apt-transport-https curl -y
Quick install:
Just run the following command to get the repository key and install it:
curl -fsSL https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox/xUbuntu_24.04/Release.key | sudo gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/home_hawkeye116477_waterfox.gpg > /dev/null
Then add the repository to the sources lists:
echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/hawkeye116477:/waterfox/xUbuntu_24.04/ /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox.list
Longer, bit outdated way:
wget https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox/Debian_11/Release.key
Replace Debian_11
with your distribution, e.g. Debian_12
. Therefore have a look at download.opensuse.org/repositories
gpg --dearmor Release.key && cat Release.key.gpg | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/home_hawkeye116477_waterfox.gpg > /dev/null
rm Release.key*
echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/hawkeye116477:/waterfox/Debian_11/ /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/home:hawkeye116477:waterfox.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install fonts-lyx ffmpeg -y waterfox-g-kde

> Customize toolbar
and tick the check in the lower left corner that says Title Bar
:
Finally your Waterfox should look like this:
