As there seems to have been recent confusion about this, just a quick "official" toot to then pin: we haven't and won't support "generative AI" related stuff in LibreWolf. If you see some features like that (like Perplexity search recently, or the link preview feature now) it is solely because it "slipped through". As soon as we become aware of something like this / it gets reported to us, we will remove/disable it ASAP.

LibreWolf is one of the best browsers for people who don’t like generative AI.

Here is the statement posted on Mastodon:

    I would use it if I could have bitwarden. Anyone know if Firefox extensions can be ported into librewolf?

      LibreWolf is based on Firefox, so all of Firefox add-ons work properly. Also, Bitwarden is even recommended by the developers.

      Password managers
      We suggest that you use a more robust solution than the built-in password manager available in the browser:

      • Bitwarden: open source password manager that allows for synchronization across multiple devices.
      • KeePassXC-Browser: official browser plugin for the open source password manager KeePassXC.

        I’m feeling dumb, I got confused with Falkon which I was using for a hot second a few weeks ago. Great to know Librewolf supports extensions. Thanks for the clarification!

      All Firefox extensions work with Librewolf, Bitwarden included. It’s still regular Firefox under the hood, just with different settings enabled by default, uBlock Origin out of the box, and some annoyances removed.
