[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1035377, member: 52014"] While it's true that you can migrate your Librewolf profile to Firefox or replace the `prefs.js` file in your Firefox profile to get some of the same benefits, there are some differences between Librewolf and Firefox that may be important to certain users. One of the main benefits of using Librewolf over Firefox is its emphasis on privacy and security. Librewolf comes with several privacy features and security enhancements out-of-the-box that are not present in Firefox by default. This includes features like removing telemetry, blocking ads and trackers by default, and disabling WebRTC. Another benefit of using Librewolf is that it's a community-driven project with a focus on open-source and transparency. Users who prioritize these values may prefer to use Librewolf over Firefox, which is owned and developed by a large corporation. Finally, while many advanced configuration options can be accessed by editing the `about:config` preferences in Firefox, some options may not be available or may require more complicated configuration. In these cases, using a specialized browser like Librewolf may be more convenient. Of course, whether or not these benefits are important to you depends on your individual needs and preferences.
