I've already switched over to LibreWolf a month or two ago. Clean, simple, and it just works.
Does it come with an equivalent to uBlock? Can you port over your bookmarks from firefox?
It comes with ublock installed by default, it also defaults to having certain features enabled by default like clearing cookies on browser exit, letter boxing enabled, and webgl disabled. This may or may not hamper your usage of the browser, but you can enable/disable this stuff via the settings.
You can also go to the Firefox extension marketplace and install extensions natively.
It is the same browser so yes to both of your questions
Feels a bit snappier too, but that could just be the clean profile
Do you know its it's the same on android?
There is no LibreWolf for Android, there is IronFox tho
Got it. Thanks
Like the other commenter said, there isn't a LibreWolf for android, but I am using IronFox and it's been fine. I don't see a huge improvement or anything, but I don't see any degradation either. So, so far it's been a fine alternative.
Thanks
