Procedure for looking at a typical trendy-tech ad-infested web page, 2026:

  • Go to the url in librewolf
  • Try enabling javascript
  • Try allowing web workers
  • Maybe it really needs "canvas"?
  • Check javascript console for clues
  • Perhaps messing with uBlock settings will help
  • Try it in old Firefox profile
  • Get blocked by cloudflare, curse their name
  • Load it up in Tor Browser
  • If it still doesn't work, give up and pick a better web page.

The web never would have become popular if it had started out being like this.

Quicker version:

  • Go to the url in librewolf

  • If it doesn't work, give up and pick a better web page.

If a website is not working in Librewolf, it is definitely not going to work in Tor, right? Unless it's an onion address, which is usually very obvious at first glance.

Thing is my primary librewolf profile has all kinds of privacy and security settings and extensions. Noscript, jshelter, and so on. It's just a matter of deciding how much it's worth messing with them for any site that doesn't like it.

There are lots of sites that don't work unless you turn on javascript and let them fingerprint your browser or whatever, but there are also quite a few that work better without it — enough of them to make me leave it as the default.

you would be surprised. for instance cloudflare is easier there
