- virtueisitsownreward Downvoted a comment on LibreWolfIts a highly modified Firefox with several privacy oriented modifications, like built in ublock and disabled stuff...however the devs chase the privacy so much, in the end its not suitable for the avg man to browse properly. Streaming services are blocked due to drm video blocking, no google search, no synced bookmark. Its just a Firefox for neckbeards.

Better privacy and other improvements make it a better Firefox.

Complaining about a lack of Google Search in a browser dedicated to privacy seems a little counter-intuitive. Besides, you can still use search engines like StartPage or searx that can provide results from Google anyway but without the tracking. Or setup DuckDuckGo with a !Bang to search using Google - there are many ways, just none of them "by default", which is the whole point of the browser compared to Firefox: To offer "privacy by default" rather than "privacy after tweaking the config files".
As for no synced bookmarks, just use xBrowserSync. Works perfectly and even has the added benefit of being cross-browser.

What I hate is how a site will advertise "Coming soon to Android..." And years later, Still Not on Android. Ex:Slim Jet. And now Librewolf has been saying the same thing. At least not a year later. YET! And how could Librewolf be an Alternative for Bromite browser? Bromite available on other platforms now? News to me....
Nice Firefox fork, stable and privacy friendly, it has all the pros of Firefox but it lacks of DRM and it's not so easy to install
It's Firefox without all the hypocrisy about privacy.
I am using the Linux .deb and the windows beta .exe and they both work fine except some minor GUI issues.
I downloaded the appimage and am most impressed with Librewolf so far. Installation was as easy as it gets, it seems faster than Firefox, and it fared well in the EFF's Cover Your Tracks fingerprinting test. In fact, out of the box it was more resistant to fingerprinting than Firefox, Falkon, and Pale Moon. I see no reason to continue using Firefox.
