Firefox is beyond salvaging now, there's no reason to keep clinging to it's putrid corpse, Waterfox-chan is willing to take you in though Anon.

Last I knew Waterfox was a glorified user.js looks like now they actually add features and ship uBO in-band which is nice because the Mozilla store is run by the dumbest people they can find which is saying a lot being Mozilla. Unfortunately it looks like they don't have a patch fix for non-progressive PNGs having white backgrounds instead of transparent ones. That's one of my biggest issues with Firefox using imageboards so much.
usecases for waterfox over librewolf?
>>107587801based. I exclusively use waterfox and librewolf on all my computers.
>"fingerprinting resistance" on by defaultsigh...
>>107587870based adult japanese woman enjoyer
>>107587880why is that a bad thing?
>>107587801I’m not white tho
>>107587801>ai gened image on an anti ai postsomeone is being dishonest...
>>107587801I am sick and tired of Firefox getting shittier every update. Whoever replies to this decides if I install waterfox or librewolf.
>>107588594install both
>>107588600Do I look like someone with unlimited HDD space, pal?
>>107588594Install GNU IceCat or Abrowser
>>107587801What's the difference between waterfox and librewolf?>t. librewolf user
>>107588673I'm sorry for your limited storage anon.
>>107587801Lolifox.
>>107587801I installed it and my mozilla account kept disconnecting every time I opened it
>>107588594I flipped a quarter, it decided librewolf
>>107589144>GNU IceCatZased
>>107587801I'd switch to Qutebrowser full time if it had a uBO/uMatrix equivalent + some of the other extensions I use frequently. I'm not sure I really want to get into the world of firefox forks since I already just use arkenfox user.js with regular firefox and I doubt the forks are all that compatible. It's also why something like ladybird isn't going to be good for a while until there's proper extension support
I miss cyberfox
>>107589178haha, I remember that.
>>107587801I was on XUL-enabled Waterfox until it became utterly unusable and then switched to Librewolf while keeping WF Classic for one extension I use for one task and can't go without.Is there any reason to use the up to date version over LW?
>>107587801I'm considering. Does it work the same with no downsides?
>>107590755Try Zen browser instead. A better fork and not just some basic userprofile.js thingy
>>107587801Waterfox-chan looks pretty cute. But what are the tangible benefits to switching from Firefox?
"No AI" really just means "Actually we do have AI it's just not turned on (((yet)))."Any alternative to FF that isn't "We're just firefox but also liars?"
>>107590773and this is why I don't get off of Firefox>okay what ab->NO THAT ONES SHIT, DO THIS ONE, IT'S WEIRDER AND NOBODY KNOWS OF IT BUT ITS THE ONLY GOOD FORK OF THE FORK>Ok but what about>IGNORE THAT GUY USE THIS ONE I FORKED MYSELF
>>107592471You get to virtue signal over outright lies with the PR people.
>>107587801It's also firefox though.
>>107592471back in the day waterfox was 64bit firefox, so it had serious benefitsnowadays it's just a simple fork, it changes default settings to remove all the bad "mozillaisms", from things like AI sloppa (except where it makes sense, the translate page local ML is still enabled because it's actually nice) to Pocket, Chat, etc. also removes all telemetry. it also changes the style back a little bit, to still having tabs, and includes treestyletab (though, honestly just use sidebery instead), and includes container tabs by default (normally you need to install a noop extension to enable the feature)i like it because for me it's nigh zero-setup to something i'm happy using, but honestly it's nothing special and you can just as well use bare firefox and tweak it yourself
Any thoughts on Floorp?
>>107587801tell them to bring back pre memory leak FF (would just run just fine in a system with 8 gb of ram) and I might consider
>>107590755Yeah, there's basically no major difference between it and Firefox outside of some about:config changes and a few more options in the privacy settings, so I'd argue it's pretty much the most straight forward switch if all you want is "Firefox without Firefox's bullshit"
>>107587801way ahead of you OP. I switched once they wouldn't let me use adblock anymore
