It looks like a great project, but I'm afraid it exceeds the privacy protections rendering it somewhat unfeasible to be a primary browser.
uBO pre installed, telemetry turned off, etc are all great steps, but the lack of DRM, for example, makes it a deal breaker for me. Brave, despite their shady practices with their own ads and cryptocurrency, is at the sweetspot balance between privacy and functionality.
I find the time it takes to fine tune my Firefox worth the work, but Librewolf looks like a project I would gladly trust with good privacy defaults.
- ranguna 5y agoI'm not 100% sure, but I think vanilla Firefox also comes with DRM disabled. Like on librewolf, you can just enable DRM and be on your way. One thing I've found, is that even if you enable DRM, librewolf sometimes still fails on Netflix. Just the other day I got redirected to a help page about Microsoft silverlight when trying to play a movie, had to fallback to Firefox.
