Thanks to you both! Can you explain, like you might to a three-year-old, why this is considered a bug? Not smart enough to understand the links you sent unfortunately.

EDIT: Also, should I move my .librewolf folder to .config, and if so, is there a "best practices"-type way of doing it besides just cutting and pasting?

Apps on a modern Linux system are supposed to follow this spec. Not following it is considered a bug, same as if apps used any other spec-defined filesystem directory incorrectly (e.g. imagine putting config files in /lib or something).

BTW by default neither of these other people will get notified by your comment.
