LibreWolf has more privacy- and security-oriented defaults out of the box, like a halfway point between Firefox and Tor Browser.
It enables Resist Fingerprinting by default, discards browsing history by default, and has a new Settings menu that makes it relatively easy to control these features that tend to break websites.
It lacks some of the customization features Waterfox pioneered.
Note: It doesn’t have auto-updates enabled so if you are currently getting security fixes installed automatically for Waterfox/Librewolf and won’t manage to keep the browser up to date yourself, then it may still be a bit early for casual users as an online daily surfboard
I just switched to Waterfox. Other than having to setup desktop links manually, it’s basically seamless from Firefox.
How would this differ?
Thanks for this. Appreciate it. I might consider switching again!.
Also consider Konform Browser! :3

Librewolf runs better on windows from experience.
Also my professors’ lecture recordings on the bullshit microsoft cloud storage doesn’t open on waterfox but does open on librewolf.
I still like waterfox more tho. It feels lighter and runs on android.
I feel torn regarding the lectures. Bs lectures sound bad, but being forced to use microslop seems somehow worse.
I have a few pcs and laptops on the go atm, so I plan to swap one to Librewolf and see hope it goes vs. Waterfox.
Unless I notice or am impressed by something noteworthy, I’ll probably just stick with Waterfox on the others for now.
