Is running Librewolf without disabling fingerprinting worth it?
Without disabling fingerprinting, zoom options aren't saved, dark mode doesn't really work and Netflix is blocked. But is it even worth running Librewolf if you enable fingerprinting? Isn't that one of the main reasons why one runs Librewolf?

You could move from
privacy.resistfingerprintingtoprivacy.fingerprintingProtectionand override the changes you want withprivacy.fingerprintingProtection.overridessuch as+AllTargets,-CSSPrefersColorScheme.I guess to enable Netflix you would have to enable DRM which is probably somewhere in LibreWolf documentation.
For the available overrides, see https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/components/resistfingerprinting/RFPTargets.inc although you may have to guess what they do based on the name.
The
privacy.resistfingerprintingoption works the same way in Librewolf as it does in Firefox, it's just that it's on by default. Having it break the website zoom is also a choice that Firefox made. In either browser, you'll need to use an extension if you want both.Webgl is also disabled
