I've been using LibreWolf as my "personal" browser on my work mac (next to Firefox as a default browser) for a while and apart from a couple oddities it's actually nice. Yes, I know that profiles exist and yes, I know about containers - but I prefer to have a different browser installation, least of all to have a different icon in the taskbar/dock. On Windows I use Firefox Developer Edition for that.

Stuff I noticed:

  • WebGL and a couple things are disabled for "fingerprinting" reasons
  • saving passwords is a bit spotty, esp the popup asking if you want to
  • not really sure if clearing cookies on close works, I'd say... sometimes?
