LibreWolf

In Firefox, it works perfectly fine.

No matter, how I set up LibreWolf - it refuses to show the login part of the page, when trying to access a private instance.

Out of desperation, I enabled all tracking etc. possible, which I would find in the settings. Disabled HTTPS-only mode, HTTPS over DNS, etc. Nothing works.

Darn, and I just got Librewolf upgraded to 131.0, meaning needing to wait further for 131.0.2.

@librewolf

Is this total cookie protection something embedded, not requiring any user intervention? I know with librewolf we get the strict enhanced cookie protection mode, but I don't know if for this total protection there's something required, if not turned on by default...

Greetings !

This has never worked in Firefox. Fx doesn’t follow en_DK for dates & even if I set/leave my preferences @ en_US as default, I still get terrible defaults like dd/mm/yyyy & commas for decimal separators at least on my machine even if I toggle on/off the use system locale option. Is LibreWolf in a position to be the first Fx fork to support ISO 8601 date formats (with nerds rejoicing everywhere)?

Awesome, @librewolf is in the #FreeBSD package repository.

In light of the new "AI WOW!" approach in the Firefox nightlies, I've installed #LibreWolf on my Linux machine at home, my Windows work laptop and corp VMs desktop.

Thankfully, they include a portable version so I can run it on the corporate machines. Though, the windows LibreWolf-Portable.exe had some issue on the VM about determining 32/64 bit, I just ran the LibreWolf/librewolf.exe directly.

I haven't messed with setting up corp proxy yet. That's tomorrow.

@librewolf

smdh @ more Firefox BS.

"Firefox was created in 2002 under the codename 'Phoenix' by members of the Mozilla community who desired a standalone browser rather than the Mozilla Application Suite bundle."

Remember those halcyon Phoenix days? I do.

They were all too short lived.

Now even Firefox forks such as @librewolf seem to be sitting on their thumbs, thinking maybe it's sufficient to merely option out offending lines of code.

Have decades of return to libc exploits meant nothing to developers?!

If you aren't going to branch to the code, don't leave it in the source! It is an attack surface laying dormant whether you realize it or not.

Is it more work? Sure.

Do the work!

LibreSSL didn't rip out tens of thousands of lines from OpenSSL without good reasons.

The dividends have been appreciable.

After the recent update (130.0-1) my settings in the “DNS over HTTPS” settings are no longer saving and are reset to “Increased protection” with the Mozilla DNS server every time I close the browser.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Hello @zenbrowser why I cant have the same protection using zen versus @librewolf ?

I tested it with https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/

and still it says that zen is partially blocking some trackers.

I checked the settings, many things looks the same but apparently not enough...

If you have any information on this it will be great.

Hi, I got an error "could not find the path to Librewolf" when clicking on LibreWolf-Portable.exe It was working pretty well before this issue. How can I fix this trouble, please ? platform : Windows10 Home

If I want to know if my version is up to date without issues, I should be able to find that information very quickly and plainly on the website as an external verification source. It could be on a page or on something like the menu or landing page footer. I just checked all of these. Finding this information is not obvious to me. I want to know this directly and without in-browser, distro, or other influences.

WTF @librewolf - you had only one job and you are failing in it.

"No telemetry" -> first thing Librewolf does is connect to Mozilla telemetry services.

Found out this by having @littlesnitch@mastodon.obdev installed.

#librewolf #telemetry #cybersecurity

Блин очень большие надежды испытывал на переезд на @librewolf но к сожалению, google meet и другие популярные штуки для онлайн конференций отказались нормально работать с камерой и микрофоном.

А еще при попытке оплатить через СПБ, почему-то отказывается нормально выводить QR код. :-(

Пришлось откатить на @FirefoxNightly

Может кто есть из пользователей @librewolf дайте совет, как вы его настроили, что не всплывает таких косяков?

long but Interesting !

Hi everyone,

Is there somewhere a list of all the changes made compared to Firefox ?

edit:

~~Sorry if it's been already asked over here, but it seem that Lemmy do not provide a search within a Community 😮~~

no, actually we can, there isn't a shortcut to make such a search. and no ability to limit the search to the titles..

*Wubba Lubba dub-dub*

Just switched from Librewolf Flatpak to the rpm. Now double click to select text doesn't work. To select text, I need to drag my cursor over the text to be selected while holding left click. Is there any way to fix this?

Two days ago, LW started behaving very oddly. It suddenly stopped rendering pages - but only on some sites. For example, the default Lemmy skin is fine but the Alexandrite skin is not. The BBC website doesn't work either. A few others seemingly totally random.

The domain resolves and it makes the initial connection and then it takes up to a minute of doing nothing and then just craps out, unable to render the page. Checking the Inspector reveals no errors or warnings and the network inspector is making a connection but not loading anything other than headers and basic tags.

The page presents no errors it just shows a blank screen. <html> <head> and <body> tags load but nothing else.

All these pages work fine in all other browsers I've tested in (floorp, Mullvad, vanilla FFox and Brave).

Details: LibreWolf 128.0-2 (flatpak) on LMDE (Faye).

Any clues, pointers or advice very gratefully received. I love the browser and have it set up just how I like it so don't really want to switch to another.

@librewolf Cannot login to sncf-connect.com

I'm using LibreWolf since a few days, and I love it ! But when I try to login to sncf-connect.com I get bloqued. I've added this domain to the exceptions, as well as monidentifiant.sncf. When I login, I get a captcha, and after solving it, I a bloqued... Am I missing an option to allow this website to work ? Thanks !

I almost gave up and uninstalled Librewolf. For a full month but now I just want to say thank you for restoring ALSA again. For some reason it was disabled in version 128 and required Pulseaudio in order to work. which requires sudo in my case, and that caused me huge grief.

Présentement en train de tester @librewolf en remplacement de #firefox
les extensions "Simple tabs groups" et "Tab manager plus", non fonctionnelles, me manquent un peu, "Tabby" semble faire le job cependant

i wonder if anyone can help me understand why the librewolf instructions for installation point to gitlab whe they moved to codeberg? https://librewolf.net/installation/linux/ shows: flatpak install flathub io.gitlab.librewolf-community im just curious. thanks

It's weird that the default homepage doesn't have the LibreWolf logo. It would make sense, right?

Hey @librewolf crew! I just made the switch after decades of loyal #Firefox use. Lost my patience for the find-the-new-anti-features-and-disable-them-game.

Thanks for existing! I couldn't find anyplace to donate. Please tell me how you could take my money.
