TL;DR: With Firefox 56, Mozilla combined Firefox Health Report and Telemetry data into a single setting called “technical and interaction data”, which was then enabled by default. This data was then shared with advertising partners on a de-identified or aggregated basis.

How does Librewolf improve on this?

I really, really want to use Librewolf. I'm on WaterFox until they have a binary build available that doesn't fail MacOS security checks on launch.
