Recently switched to librewolf as they have a zero AI policy, unlike firefox who I have been using since v1 some 25yrs ago.
But there's a few niggles... got it set up to retain tabs I have open, and keep me logged in to a couple of places through shutdowns.
But the window refuses to remain at the same size and defaults back to stock when opening.... and beige is doing that thing again where it refuses to refresh the local timeline... that had been fixed in FF in the last update.

Der KI Weg vom #Firefox geht euch auch auf den Sack? Mit #Librewolf gibts den #Firefox ganz ohne Experimente, ohne Schnick-Schnack und ohne "Telemetry" - https://librewolf.net/
Are there any situations in particular in which using #LibreWolf instead of Firefox caused problems?
I've now moved away from Firefox to more friendly alternatives due to the future plans of Mozilla in terms of AI features, or how they call it "The next chapter". Althought I'm not an enemy of AI as a technology, I don't want to have AI features everywhere I go. And if it's there, than it should be opt-in or (better) available as an addon separate from the browser

I moved from librewolf to waterfox because i was curious. I think i like this more due to the customizability. Librewolf is great if you want something really solid and to-the-point, though the defaults for privacy settings are rather overzealous. Waterfox is more "regular user friendly" fork.
Quick PSA : yes, #Mozilla has been disappointing, but so far, they’re the only organization preventing Google to have a full control over web standards. Blink/WebKit-based browsers (Chromium, Vivaldi…) do NOT help at all in that regard.
So please use #Firefox or a #Gecko-based alternative (#ZenBrowser, #LibreWolf…). Ride the nightly release train and report bugs if you can. #Servo is getting ready, but for the next ~5 years, Gecko is our only suitable option.
Long-term #LibreWolf contributor fxbrit wants to be removed from the core contributors' section on the homepage, after a silent absence of more than two years.
Given the remarks by Thorin (of arkenfox user.js) on collaborating with fxbrits, I'd like to see a bit of context here, but it's probably not going to happen.

#LibreWolf v146.0.1-1 is now available!
https://codeberg.org/librewolf/bsys6/releases/tag/146.0.1-1
https://librewolf.net/installation/
Notable Changes:
AI Link Preview functionality (which was already non-functional) is now more thoroughly disabled and hidden.
LibreWolf is now built with `--enable-replace-malloc`, so manually replacing memalloc (with, for example, `hardened_malloc`, via `) is now possible.
See https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/146.0.1/releasenotes/ for upstream changes.
boostedI've been using #firefox since before the 1.0 release. That's nearly 25 years. Even with the poor stewarding from #Mozilla, I've always said I'll use firefox for as long as I can.
The new CEO sets the direction for the project, and in his experience working for real estate companies and complete lack of understanding of FOSS or community, has chosen to accelerate hard into a brick wall. So I'm evaluating #librewolf right now.
@fzero We're on the same boat. But, I'm using #librewolf and not #firefox directly. But given the recent events, I don't think even librewolf can find a way to make it work. I hope they do, but eventually, we have to find another alternative.
boosted#LibreWolf v146.0-2 is now available!
https://codeberg.org/librewolf/bsys6/releases/tag/146.0-2

No major changes from LibreWolf's end.

#LibreWolf v145.0.2-2 is now available!
https://codeberg.org/librewolf/bsys6/releases/tag/145.0.2-2
https://librewolf.net/installation/
No major changes from LibreWolf's end.
A few tiny bugs introduced in 145.0 by the previously not cleanly ported patches should be gone now as well.
Microsoft Store versions seem to be delayed / held back currently. This seems to be an issue on their end, but we are aware and will try to get this sorted.
