hey, there's a setting in librewolf where you can enable/disable webgl! you don't even have to do it via about:config
Yeah, that's a no-go for me since the app I work on uses WebGL.
FYI it's a toggle in about:preferences (a.k.a. Settings).
Makes sense.
I switched to Libre as well a month or so ago. The only thing I miss from Firefox is eing able share passwords/tabs/etc between mobile and desktop, but it's not enough to make me switch back.
You can use Firefox Sync in Librewolf too, it's just a bit buried in the settings.
afaik, you can enable firefox sync in librewolf so you can share all those to firefox on mobile
Just to add for information's sake, it works the other way around too. As in, you can use Fennec instead of Firefox Android and still sync with standard Firefox on desktop. Or Librewolf or whatever. I think most forks probably use the same sync functionality and servers as vanilla Firefox.
Check out xBrowserSync
That looks like a great tool, but only seems to support bookmark sync currently? Not quite a drop in replacement for Firefox sync yet.
For passwords bitwarden is basically the given standard
No, you're right. It only does bookmarks.
TBH this finally pushed me over the edge. It was surprisingly easy - just
s/firefox/librewolf/in my browser config file, and thenprivacy.clearOnShutdown_v2.cookiesAndStorage = false(I don't want to log in to all my work accounts every time I restart the browser). I didn't even notice the switch TBH.Does it support drm?
It does! It's disabled by default though, but it can be toggled in the settings
Great!
I love LibreWolf. I have been using it for a year now.
Using it for years. It is amazing. I do have a tech background so I know what I need to change for my needs but I wished more people use it. I mean it is also not that hard, either.
