It creates it's own profile and doesn't mess with Firefox/Firefox-beta profiles.

I've also never seen a destructive bookmark import process. That one is new to me.

It quite possibly could have gone into its own thread, as I'm not sure that it has much to do with the patches made by Firefox.

Neither does LibreWolf although I it's mentioned in the opening thread.

Indeed, though I'd have put it in a thread of its own - assuming you're looking for more information about it, or possibly wanting a solution. If you're not, it's all good. That's why I said 'possibly', because it's possible that you don't actually want to discuss it as its own topic and you're merely mentioning it in passing.

I'd have likely chosen a new thread. You can still do so, if you want. Otherwise, it's not something to lose sleep over.

LibreWolf vs Firefox: Comparing the Privacy Heroes of Open-Source Browsers

Firefox is one of the best cross-platform open-source web browsers. Not to mention, it is the only viable alternative as a Chromium-based replacement. Or, is it? LibreWolf is yet another interesting option, which is originally a Firefox fork that attempts to do better than Firefox to...

Nope I'm good using Firefox.
I should have stuck with my guns and left LibreWolf dead and buried.

That's why I said 'possibly',

Missed that one also kinda a like I missed the LDME instead of LMDE.

Otherwise, it's not something to lose sleep over.

Nope it's a done and over and won't lose no sleep.

Brave browser claimed similar things about no telemetry.

Brave browser claimed no user data collected would ever be sold.

Brave browser got busted lying about selling collected user data.

They are all true blue for awhile until they get everyone's trust built up.

And BAM do the same thing Google and Microsoft does collects user data and sells the collected user data.

I'm not trying to start any argument or make anyone mad.

Until a guilty verdict is handed down....I believe in their innocence

I also have faith in the fact that with all the people who spend their days investigating the many and various browsers and their habits and claims, (among a myriad of other things), that any "holes" or 'mis truths'/lies in the statements that Librewolf has made ....would have well and truly been laid bare by now.
