I know for a fact this site works well on Firefox and Waterfox. I'm new to LibreWolf because Firefox has too much AI jammed into it and Waterfox keeps breaking itself every two seconds.

I'm on the most recent version, I just downloaded it two hours before this post.

This has been happening for a few days now, maybe a week or so, but recently LibreWolf isn't loading websites properly, or sometimes doesn't load it at all. In both screenshots, left is LibreWolf 158.0-1, right is Nightly 160.0a1.

In the first screenshot, I load https://www.reddit.com/r/LibreWolf/ directly after opening both browsers. LibreWolf will partially load it while Nightly has no issues. If I refresh the page on Libreworld, it will load properly.

In the second screenshot is me loading https://warframestreams.lol/, which should redirect to https://streamframe.fyi/. Librewolf outright refuses to load the website. It used to load just fine for the months I've been using this browser. Nightly successfully redirects to the proper site.

I'm not sure how to reproduce this, sometimes it would just fix itself, other times LibreWolf doesnt even want to load wikipedia. Is this a config/setting issue?

Edit: Happened again with https://tv.apple.com. First it refused to even connect. 4 refreshes and tab closing attempts later it did load, but only partially. Refreshing again loaded it correctly.

Safe a click. Just in case you didn't know:

I know this sounds stupid but what can i change in about:config to make myself more private?

In chrome for eg., I can ensure only the shortcuts that I choose to keep here in a new tab are seen. I can't seem to figure out how to do so for Librewolf though --> it does keep the ones i choose but more importantly, it keeps adding the websites i have simply visited, even though i DO NOT WANT to keep them as shortcuts.

Then I have to manually keep dismissing them. This seems like such a basic and simple to implement requirement that it should be there, I'm not sure if it is though.

To those who're gonna tell me about the top bookmarks bar --> i know that it exists. My point is, I just like to see easy-to-click stuff on a new tab right there below the search bar. Can someone plz help me this figure out ?

Tested with previous release and it works.

Yes, I know FB is trash, I want to not use it but there are groups that don't exist elsewhere. I don't use it often and haven't needed to download a file from a group in a while. Last time I tried it worked fine. But I guess somewhere along the way Meta has made yet another shitty 'update' and now I can't get downloads to work.

When I click on a file to download it looks like it just reloads the page. I know that's not all it's doing, but that's the appearance to me. No file is downloaded.

I have tried enabling WebGL (temporarily); turning off resist fingerprinting; disabling uBlock Origin; and turning off enhanced tracking protection - all with no difference. Using another browser temporarily is not an option because FB won't let me use a different browser (something about an unidentified device that I haven't used before or blah blah - I gave up trying). I can't use my phone because I won't install that trash on my phone ever.

Anyone know what settings I need to change (temporarily) so I can download these files? Thanks!

Edit: Have also tried using the DownloadThemAll extension and that couldn't download the files either. In the preview, it showed the files correctly but then just downloaded a bunch of html files instead.

Asking here in hopes somebody has had this issue. ResistFingerprinting is off.

I just tried to install via Debian, and got this error..

Does anybody know what font was used for the "LibreWolf" Logo on the about:newtab page? (internal file name: firefox-wordmark.svg)

Greetings fellow LibreWolves.

I have a bug where my theme (D-Cyan) will not show upon launch unless I enable/disable it every time, and I was looking for some guidance.

The theme will hold until the browser is closed. If additional LibreWolf session windows are opened while the first one is still opened, it still holds. If I close LibreWolf entirely, the theme resets to the default dark theme all over again. If I disable Dark Reader, the bug is gone. Previous versions of LibreWolf never had this issue for me.

The bug occurs with any theme, and the result is the default theme showing every launch. The setting takes hold, so it's not a write issue. It says "Enabled", but it does not show. I can see the theme briefly flicker and then switch back to the default look at launch. As previously stated, clicking "Disable" then "Enable" revives the theme.

I never had this issue until the Nova upgrade, and the bug persists whether I am using the new Nova layout or not. Firefox of the same version does not have the issue with Dark Reader. It seems to be specific to LibreWolf.

I'm out of ideas as to why Dark Reader is not working correctly with my LibreWolf themes. My Dark Reader is updated to the current version as well (4.9.133).

Any ideas or feedback would be appreciated. Thank you for your time reading, and thank you to the developers for making this great browser.

Dark Reader is a popular extension for forcing dark themes on websites:

Update: Found a more suitable lightweight dark mode extension called UltimaDark that works perfectly with my themes.

I'm using the portable version, and scrolling feels very choppy. Is there a way to make scrolling identical to Ff?

Just started librewolf, but auto update stay on this,

anyway I download the new update from https://librewolf.dev/librewolf/bsys6/releases

Right now if I want to change wallpapers I have to change it manually, I know its a browser and there's limited things to what it can do but can I save it maybe like the option of third party wallpapers you can activate, so that they'd be just there to click?

Also is there any way to make a cycle, as in set one to activate after a specific time or something

Also does anyone know a good dark themed theme thats not too intrusive? Right now in using sleeping miku and I love it, is there any like it?

When searching from the Startpage website, the search phrase is private, meaning the search phrase is not visible in the web address or URL after searching. But when searching Startpage from the address bar, it's not private and visible in the web address/URL.

Is there any way to make search terms private when searching using Startpage from the address bar? Thanks.

any more interesting addons for privacy and spoofing :3 alredy have quite a lot but prob theres some more out there

Also, I'm wondering, is WebGL blocked by default? Because if I manually chose the option to block it, it just adds an oblique line over the icon. If we don't do anything, it doesn't appear as being blocked (no oblique line to signal it's blocked).

OpenRailwayMap.app works fine when RFP is disabled, but lags a lot when enabled. Is there some way to disable RFP (or the part causing the lag, whatever that may be) for just this website?

My pc is on it's last leg so I'm trying to create a backup. No matter what folder I choose I get this message. I'm guessing it has to to with permissions but I have no idea how to navigate it.
I'm running on Linux Mint, please explain like I'm a 5 year old.

I'm not sure what happened but my main profile was reset and Librewolf created this folder, is there any way of recovering the profile this way? I've looked at settings and have not seen any obvious way to do it.

I got a laptop and I would like the settings for my desktop to match. For example I have certain accounts always logged in but I don't want to go about doing that all over again.

I don't know why It do deleting selected text, it do affects all sites since I did last `flatpak update`...

Even in reddit when I'm editing my comments and adding the selected text into quote with reddit's gui button - the text just disappear

When I open some torrent sites or random search sites it says "secure connection failed" but upon 2-3 try it loads with secure connection. Does any one have idea why?

Thx.

I am new to librewolf just downloaded it and never used it before. The browser was locked to 60fps and it bothered me so I was trouble shooting and found that turning privacy.resistFingerprinting to false fixed it and let my browser go to 240hz. Now does privacy.resistFingerprinting really matter? Is it important to have enabled?
