New Update LibreWolf Browser - A fork of Firefox, focused on privacy, security and freedom

I've never tried this browser. Is it worth using over the regular Firefox?
Not really. LW is setup to be privacy friendly by default. It even includes µBO already installed. So unless you are absolutely clueless about setting up FF to your liking then no reason to use LW.

I was using Librewolf today to setup a login with 2fa. The setup page generated passcodes as backup, but the actual QR code would not display properly -- it just generated veritcal lines in the QR code box. Tech at the website confirmed that the QR code was not displaying properly because of Librewolf, but he did not understand why, and mentioned all other browsers do display the QR code properly. Has anyone else seen that using Librewolf? And any idea why QR does NOT display properly in Librewolf? Anything "suspicious" about this?? :unsure:
 
Try a lower screen resolution maybe...
fwiw, tech on the server said he tested with librewolf after I notified him, and he said problem is librewolf works ok with other browsers. Makes me stop & wonder WTF is going on under the hood that we don't see -- I felt a Matrix moment last night, not a good one... fwiw... o_O

another incident / failure re 2fa QR code: I tried again to set 2fa on specific website this time running Firefox 123.0.1 on win10 and I got the same reaction as last time using Librewolf, ie, a QR code with all vertical stripes. Tech on other end said it also failed for him using FF in Linux but worked ok in windows. I am running Checkpoint Harmony and wonder if Harmony is blocking something that normally "downloads" with the QR code. Still makes me wonder what exactly is happening deeper in the system than I know how to get to regarding 2fa settings, eg, is something being copied somewhere by default from that website that the security on pc is blocking. :unsure:
