I started to use YubiKey 5 Series / FIDO2 It works well in Firefox, but doesn't work in LibreWolf. LLM suggest to make next browser setting change

security.webauth.u2f true

security.webauth.webauthn true

security.webauth.webauthn_enable_softtoken true

security.webauth.webauthn_enable_usbtoken true

but it didn't help. Suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

I have

YubiKey 5 NFC (5.2.4)

Works fine in librewolf out of the box for me. Maybe you are running librewolf in some sandbox (Flatpak, snap, bubblewrap, etc) which doesn't allow USB access?
