hello! as you might have noticed I haven't been able to post the changelog lately, so I figured I'd write a news thread:

• as usual we released a new LW version for each FF stable.
• I just added a bunch of documentation entries, most notably:
  • accessibility and why you might want to disable it, even though we don't by default.
  • how to use KeePassXC when you install both it and LibreWolf as Flatpak.
  • how to install uBO if you're in a country where the addons store is blocked.
  • full list.
• WebRTC should work a bit better now, you should experience less breakage.
• we maintained our usual set of patches across each release.
• this epic contains a bunch of solved issue we have been ironing out during the past few release cycles.
• in the next release we finally expect to fix the weird new tab issue on linux and the unresponsive window issue on macos; this was possible thanks to a contributor from the community who found a typo in one of our patches :-)
• there's a known issue with Firefox Sync logins.

if you have any question just ask 🐟

hello folks, v107.0 is rolling out on all platforms, if it already hasn't :-)

main changes:

• rebased to latests firefox;
• updated patches.

very minimal but enjoy!

from that issue:

I'll be stopping providing new LibreWolf builds, and it's possible I'll abandon the port altogether in the near future. So, unless I'll find someone who will take care of the port, it would be better to remove the instructions.

more details inside, and many thanks to the person who provided the port during these months!

hello! v106.0.1 is rolling out on all platforms.

some might have already got a v106.0 update, others will be upgraded directly to the newer version as the releases were condensed into one, since they occurred within 48 hrs from each other upstream.

main changes:

• rebased to latests firefox;
• updated settings: there have been many minor changes in the past few releses, I suggest looking at the changelog of the past few versions;
• hide firefox view for now, we will eventually patch it and re-introduce it in a revisited form later on!

enjoy and be safe :-)

FYI: if you prefer to use a different instance, mickie created a librewolf community of at https://jeremmy.ml. I will try my best to keep an eye on stuff posted over there too :-)

a bit late to the party, but v104 has been released in the past few days, depending on your platform.

the changelog is very small this time, I blame august:

• all changes from firefox v104;
• updated some patches that broke;
• updated settings to v6.9, which is mostly a cleanup.

look I said it wasn't that much..but enjoy it :-)

I forgot the changelog for v102 but here's the one for v103 instead.

• all upstream fixes from FF103
• updated, fixed and deprecated patches.
  • in particular you might have noticed an issue with uBO disappearing, it's now fixed.
• add release for OpenSuse Tumbleweed.
• updated build documentation.
• updated base macOS SDK to 11+.
• updated settings to v6.7.
  • as the upstream cookie pref migration is finished you should no longer experience lost cookies.
  • IPv6 is no longer disabled by default.
• updated some description in the UI.
• fix printing in flatpak.

an even more detailed issue and merge request overview is available in the meta for v103.
