2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

I too would like this knowledge to be imparted upon my person.
Its hardened firefox, but you dont have to do any of the hardening yourself. Thats it, and thats why I continue to just use hardened firefox.
They pre-install ublock origin basically.
I use Fennec on Android because I can use desktop Firefox addons if I enable developer options and use my addon collection.
Well, Mull is more like a "Librewolf for Android", I (think) it is more privacy-focused than Fennec.
Mull also supports more extensions from developer options.
Check these out for Librewolf and Mull's results. Fennec isn't in the list (yet?)

Pro tip: change your user agent to linux
For what reason?
To promote linux
I always told Firefox that it was too good for you. But Firefox wouldn't listen. It would say, "No, Titou is the one. Titou will never do me wrong." Well. Well. Well..
Meh, firefox is plenty enough
I like Mullvad Browser :3 Though, I turn off letterboxing because I can't hanle it.
Librewolf and tor browser best combo
Oh nice, Can I still sync my Firefox account with it? Been looking for an alternative so I can use FF for both work and home.
Last time I checked it has the sync removed.
You can reenable that in the settings, but it's off by default. I use it everyday
Nice Ty. Can you share how to do it?
https://librewolf.net/docs/settings/#enable-firefox-sync
You set this in your overrides file or in about:config
You can also do it with the normal settings menu (about:preferences). The setting is called "Enable Firefox Sync" under the tab "LibreWolf". Might be a bit easier this way.
