A little admiration of how easy UI customization is on Firefox, and how shitty Chromium looks.

    Never heard of LibreWolf but they say on their website that features like DRM are disabled, what does that mean if I want to view DRM content in my browser? I may be confused but currently with Firefox I already have problems with DRM sometimes. For example on Dell’s website I had difficulties viewing product videos on there, will they simply not play on LibreWolf or how does that work?

      It means that any website which using drm for playing content will not work by default,but u can enable it a again by modyfing config file.

        from my experience there will be a popup asking to enable drm for this site when it requests it. no need to modify a file.

        Don’t even have to edit the config file anymore, it’s a checkbox in the options menu now.

      Create a second profile that you only use for DRM crap and enable DRM in the settings. Firefox also doesnt have DRM pre-enabled so that claim of them makes no sense.

      See my post on konsole on how to make a desktop entry in Linux, where you can put profiles on the right click actions with icons and all.

      Yes, Librewolf is basically a fork of Firefox that makes different trade-offs, where it accepts more breakage than Firefox does, to gain a bit more privacy.
