    It comes with uBlock Origin preinstalled, so there’s that. Otherwise, it’s just a hardened Firefox fork, and as such has the same catalogue of addons

      Awesome. Makes me wonder if there’s still a reason to use Firefox over Librewolf.

        Absolutely. I would never recommend any of these offshoots over stock. You can literally set it up the same exact way if you want, but still get same day security patches and updates.

        Only reasons if heard is faster updates if you use base Firefox (w/ arkenfix user.js). Also the styling (brand icons and such) for librewolf are detectable. Mullvad is better than librewolf for antfingerprinting.

        I switched to it a couple weeks ago from FF/arc. No issues so far, and I’m pretty happy.
