    Firefox is really bad a portraying what they’re actually doing, and the privacy concerns people have with them have been widely overblown. But on top of that librewolf is a privacy oriented fork not made by Mozilla

      For want of $100 /year Apple developer subscription , the libewolf team can’t sign binaries for Silicon M series Macs.

      I spent an hour and a half trying to get librewolf to work, and just gave up for Waterfox instead.

      On my laptop I run Firefox for some things, Watefox for others, and fall back to Chrome only as absolutely necessary when Gecko can’t get me there.

        I tried waterfox and it was just too glitchy for me I had many more crashes than Firefox, and their claim to fame was that chrome extensions worked with it but I literally never got a single one working. Session buddy just saves your sessions locally, but that would not work AT ALL on waterfox.

          I didn’t even know that they claim Chrome extensions will work, I simply use the Firefox extensions in Waterfox.

          My browsing style is antiquated, my ADHD will only afford me about eight tabs per browser window and I usually have about four of those going at a time.

          I aggressively kill tabs to save my own mental memory more than the machine’s memory.

            I also recently learned that a lot of people don’t erase tabs upon quitting the browser, which feels wild to me… Why not use bookmarks at that point?

              Something strange happened in the last decade, wherever one has 300 emotional support tabs and browsers had to create really elaborate tab groups and memory management for juggling stacks upon stacks of tabs.

              I don’t think anyone actually uses bookmarks anymore, except you, me, about any 3000 misc nerds.

          What caused it to crash so many times and how long ago did you use it? I’ve been using Waterfox for years and it’s been mostly great. I also never use Chrome extensions; just stick to Firefox add-ons.
