I migrated from firefox to librewolf AND Tor this week. Help.

MadBigote ,

I saw a post earlier this week where Firefox was adding an AI to the browser? That’d make me migrate to libre wolf or water fox.

Seriously though, I just use Firefox. LibreWolf is basically Firefox with stricter defaults, and over the years I’ve already tweaked Firefox to use all the privacy features anyway.

I know there’s some extra sauce implemented in LibreWolf that Firefox lacks, but that stuff seems like too much of a compromise for me (like canvas fingerprinting).

Plus, I think orange looks nicer in my window list than blue.

I also don’t use tor or a vpn unless I can’t access anything otherwise. I guess I don’t really see the need to, since I don’t think I’m doing anything that’ll draw the government’s attention.

You can turn off canvas fingerprinting or any added feature with a single checkbox. I used to feel the same way about LibreWolf, but once I familiarized myself with the different settings, it became clearly the superior option if you value privacy. I also set my Firefox settings strictly, but then they added new “features” and turned them on by default. That was the last straw for me.

FuryMaker ,

I started moving from Firefox to LibreWolf and found a few too many convenient features broke.

I think password and bookmark syncing was too difficult to move away from, as I use them across devices/phone.

Haven’t had time to research alternative methods or practices.

XCraftMC ,

you can enable firefox sync from the librewolf settings. that’s what i do and it works flawlessly

Librewolf is just a usable Firefox

Clearly 🐺. Been on it like, 3y+? Maybe longer, it’s been my primary for a long time. 🦊 as a backup, and for DRM stuff. Chrome/Chromium for shit that just doesn’t play well with 🦎. Edge (for windows) is my ‘I need to test this with a vanilla browser’ and cba to disable ublock etc from chrome incognito.

Iceraven, with backup Vanadium, on mobile.

yetAnotherUser ,

For mobile, I’d recommend Mull instead of Iceraven

Pros:

  • Just like Iceraven, a fork of Fenix
  • incorporates the arkenfox user.js
  • Doesn’t have “No warranties or guarantees of security or updates or even stability!” in its project description

Cons:

  • APKs are only on FDroid
  • awful name, no animal reference
  • awful logo color scheme imo - magenta on turquoise is… an interesting choice

Here’s a probably somewhat biased but from quickly skimming over it not inaccurate browser comparison by the developer(s) of Mull:

Tor Browser serves a different purpose/use-case to the first two. The first two are intended for everyday browsing while I’ve never heard of anyone using Tor Browser as their daily browser—and if you log into websites then using Tor Browser as your daily driver would defeat the anonymity purposes if you’re logging in anyway.

I use librewolf for everyday browsing and Tor Browser for things requiring a higher threat model.

HotsauceHurricane ,

Librewolf. I yearn for something better for ios. I’m sticking woth firefox because all my tabs & shit are synced.

hirage ,

Well, I use them all. It depends on the services I access and the threats that affect them (and therefore me). Firefox for studying and sites that use WebGL; Librewolf for everyday browsing. Oh yeah, and there’s Tor.

serpineslair ,

I have modified Firefox. Might as well be Librewolf.

I was the same which was why I just switched to librewolf. Cut the work out for me.

NegativeInf ,

What is it when one fires up 30 selenium instances using the Firefox webdriver, all loading random sites and clicking links, then route all personal traffic through tor?

possiblylinux127 ,

Librewolf is better than Tor in some ways. Tor has ads

Churbleyimyam ,

I rarely have a reason to use Tor and the ads always shock me when I do. I find it weird that most people are experiencing the internet with oldschool ads in their normal day-to-day browsing.

prunerye ,

Honestly, there are probably enough people using ublock with tor browser that you can still retain most of the benefits if you do the same. You’ll just be in a smaller cohort than if you didn’t.

Tor browser has ads? I’ve never seen them lol

Gotta weigh in the benefits of privacy/features vs anonymity for your needs.

Firefox with Tor for specific stuff

mrvictory1 ,

Librewolf enables fingerprinting preventation which makes some websites / fields very laggy. I can disable it but what’s the point of using Librewolf then? Also using FF is not paranoid, it is the only free software I installed that sticked with my family. Tor has a wholly different purpose.

Yes that’s what the meme is saying.
