Comment on Zen browser had a backdoor enabled by default
priapus@sh.itjust.works 10 months agoI agree, Mullvad is the only fork that I have confidence in the security of (ignoring Tor ofc since it’s not really for general use).

I’ll bite: what’s wrong with LibreWolf?
priapus@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
It just lacks manpower unfortunately. Going with a browser that has the funding for a security team is the safer option.

Librewolf is firefox with different settings how does it not already benefit from Firefox’s security team
priapus@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
It does, but less than Firefox does. Their lack of manpower means delayed updates to fix zero days compared to Firefox. It also means less eyes on any patches introduced, so I’d be more concerned about malicious code being introduced.

Thanks! Makes me wonder if there’s a chance all this separate effort can come into one.
