If you are keen on personal privacy, you might have come across Brave Browser. Brave is a Chromium-based browser that promises to deliver privacy with built-in ad-blocking and content-blocking protection. It also offers several quality-of-life features and services, like a VPN and Tor access. I mean, it's even listed on the reputable PrivacyTools website. Why am I telling you to steer clear of this browser, then?

Since when did LibreWolf stop development? First I heard of it, and concerning if accurate.

I was just reading about it in another thread that I don't remember. Not really "stopped" per se but one of the major devs left and the remaining have admitted they're not able to keep up. I'll go and see if I can find it again and I'll edit this comment if I do.

I remember they saying the were too swamped to take on an Android version after Mull dev stopped, which is not the same as stopping. Mull actually stopped development, LibreWolf didn't - they should not be mentioned in the same sentence like that.
