I've been using LibreWolf and have been very happy with it.
I installed the essential Privacy Badger and uBlock Origin and see both doing their jobs on top of the protection LibreWolf offers.
Strongly second this.
There's been suspicions for a while that you can't actually unGoogle Chromium no matter how hard you try.
I really enjoy Vivaldi but I came to the conclusion that the only thing that really matters to me is vertical tabs.
LibreWolf is my daily driver now.
I’m coming to the conclusion that I should just try LibreWolf and see how I like that compared to Firefox.
It's just firefox. If you encounter websites that break or look bad on firefox, theyll be just as broken on librewolf. There are many web standards firefox is behind on.
That said, vivaldi is the best chromium choice and Librewolf is the best FF choice. I use librewolf when adblocking is paramount, like on YT
Only thing I’ve been missing while trying Librewolf for a bit is ironically enough, saved cookies on pages I sign into to keep me signed in.
Other than this it feels like a faster Firefox.
I’ve seen there’s ways to keep you singed in on Librewolf too, but I keep wonder If there’s actually a point in using it instead of Firefox if I’m saving (some) cookies anyways.
Thoughts?
Saving cookies is not the only thing Librewolf does differently from default Firefox.
Having some cookie exceptions is definitely better than having all cookies saved.
