Cevilia (they/she/…)When people recommend Brave browser.
SaharaMaleikuhmPeople just want the next best easy supposedly privacy friendly solution. People who use Librewolf instead aren’t any different. Just configure Firefox how you want it to and actually get timely updates. All forks suck because updates are massively delayed.
This! I never understand people who recommend Librewolf or other forks over Firefox just because some default settings are better.
The problem with Firefox is they inflict stuff on you without giving you the chance to opt in. LibreWolf delays the updates (a few days at most in my experience) to cut out the latest round of slop shit and sponsors. It’s not just about the default settings, it’s about the ongoing curation.
Massively delayed? LibreWolf has only ever been a few days at most behind the curve. It’s currently on 148.0.2, which is on par with the current version of Firefox released just last week.
