      Tor/Mullvad are better for anonymity use cases, but when you go tweaking it (settings, add-ons) you are no longer blending in with the pack. LibreWolf suits a more privacy-oriented use case I think since it’s not aiming to mimic Tor, but just have privacy settings mostly maxed out & you opt into everything you are comfortable with, such as cookies—whereas base Fx you have to opt into more privacy.

        I mostly use librewolf as a substitute for private browsing. Firefox is my go to for places where I log in

      Honestly, I can’t remember specifics but I read some bad stuff about Librewolf a few months ago (nothing nefarious, just seems the developers didn’t necessarily really know what they were doing and made some weird design choices).

      I trust the Tor project somewhat, so I tend to trust Mullvad browser more.

      Edit: here’s some good information: https://github.com/mullvad/mullvad-browser/issues/1
