I've had my eye on @librewolf for quite a while and, on occasion, installed it to check out its progress. Inspired by #Chrome trying to take over the internet again, I thought it would be a good time to try the latest version of #LibreWolf and see if it would now suit me as a secondary browser.

I must say I'm quite impressed with v115.0.2-2 and the progress LibreWolf has made since the last time I tried it. I'll be trying it on my #Linux rig tonight to be sure but I think it's now a keeper. 🐺

Librewolf is the only fully private browser that has been 100% usable for me.

LibreWolf is great. I never leave localhost without it.

I am a new user just come over from Brave. I really like LibreWolf so far. It works really well and with all the extra security features. Also no bloat! Brave and Vivaldi, although good browsers that make an effort at privacy, are over bloated now with crap I don't want or use. LibreWolf also seems to me faster than Brave (haven't tested but to my eye it seems so). I am moving all bookmarks over as it becomes my primary browser. Was looking for a monero address to donate to but didn't find any donation info on the website...

@opt9 @KoHoSo @librewolf
I've moved out from chrome a couple years ago and I started to use Firefox, but when I discovered #Librewolf it became my favorite browser. I'm using it as my main browser around a year ago and I have no complaints. Librewolf + #uBO addon is the perfect choice for privacy.

@KoHoSo @librewolf I was really happy when I discovered LibreWolf got a Windows updater. I don't know how it's doing on other platforms, but for me, that elevated it from "thing to have" to "thing to start using seriously"

@nus @librewolf I definitely took notice of that Windows Updater upon this install. I'm really looking forward to seeing this version of LibreWolf on my Debian KDE machine at home.
