LibreWolf is a great project but was killing my eyes at night by not being able to follow dark-theme preferences in Private Mode. So it was forked into what is now Konform Browser. Besides unlocking theming and some other privacy-related tweaks on the preferences pane, it goes even further than LW in disabling built-in remote connections, snoopware, and AI integrations.
If you are a Linux user who haven’t yet found the right Firefox fork for you I hope you will consider it <3
Well tbh it’s Firefox but without the concerning direction Mozilla is going. I don’t want or need anything else. No point for me doing it other than Mozilla pivoting to AI. I’m glad it’s an option but fuck Mozilla for ruining a good thing.
Effectively they are the same to me feature wise. The main difference is that Waterfox lets you login to your mozilla account and has the mobile app, so I can sync my bookmarks between devices.
Librewolf also lets you use Firefox Sync, you just have to enable it in the settings first. But yeah, I use Waterfox on mobile because Librewolf has no Android version
How is it? I’m liking waterfox right now.

I’m also enjoying Waterfox.

Honestly basically identical in most ways that matter, so far
