How is Librewolf better?
That’s why I don’t use password manager and learn every unique randomly generated 22-character password by memory. I can’t remember my mother’s name but at least I can log into myspace.
Hardened by default, no telemetry, no Pocket, virtually everything Mozilla-related removed, and timely updates unlike some other forks. It is like the Ungoogled Chromium equivalent of Firefox. Since I do not like the company it is the perfect option for me.
They are a for-profit company including laying off staff but their CEO still makes CEO money even while the company is struggling. Not to mention if you are trying to degoogle that is where Mozilla makes the bulk of its income. That’s just a few things of many, they’ve also made stupid decisions like leaving Thunderbird out in the cold for years or that whole Colorways thing they wasted time on. Not to mention I don’t actually even like Firefox the browser. I use librewolf strictlty out of principle and not because I actually prefer it over chromium. I think it is inferior in most ways but I am opposed to the centralization so here we are.
Its hardened firefox, but you dont have to do any of the hardening yourself. Thats it, and thats why I continue to just use hardened firefox.
I use Fennec on Android because I can use desktop Firefox addons if I enable developer options and use my addon collection.
Well, Mull is more like a “Librewolf for Android”, I (think) it is more privacy-focused than Fennec.
Mull also supports more extensions from developer options.
Check these out for Librewolf and Mull’s results. Fennec isn’t in the list (yet?)

Hmmm that was bothering me that mobile Firefox has access to like six add-ons. At least ublock was one.
Look on official Librewolf website, not sure if mobile is supported though
i’m also on Fennec. Any tip on how I can install this addon - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fediredirect/
I use Firefox with adblock and Duckduckgo, for me I good enough.
Great choice, i use Librewolf with ublock + privacy badger and searx as a search engine
Mostly. Sometimes it’ll catch something ublock missed though so not pointlessly redundant.
Meh, firefox is plenty enough
Mike Kuketz had a detailed look at several browsers and Librewolf as well. In a nutshell, he was pleased and states that the default settings are user friendly. His website is in German though: https://www.kuketz-blog.de/librewolf-datensendeverhalten-desktop-version-browser-check-teil8/
