    WaterFox is just Firefox without the Mozilla parts people don’t like (AI, sponsored content, telemetry). It is not as hardened as Librewolf, which can break sites with it’s anti-fingerprinting techniques. It’s a perfect browser for casual use (and widest compatibility).

      I wish projects like this would offer simple “security profile” settings that would allow you to batch change the relevant settings between the most common suggested settings for different usecases.

      Just “General use” and “Privacy” profiles would go a long way.

        Honestly, Librewolf is pretty functional. It used to break all kinds of stuff, but now it’s just a couple of sites with fingerprint protection issues, and there’s a couple-of-clicks way to disable the strict fingerprint protection on any site you care about where it’s causing problems.

        Unfortunately it’s not that simple. At least that’s the message I got from reading Librewolf’s documentation out of curiosity.
