I just updated (I use arch btw) and had to reboot WaterFox. The default search engine got changed to 1.org and StartPage no longer shows up as a default option even. Has this happened to anybody else?

When I was choosing bet them, I heard that librewolf might be too locked down and some websites might not work right without some work. I was just looking for a drop in replacement for Firefox soninchose Waterfox.

FYI it is possible to unlock quite a lot of functionality on Librewolf if you're still interested. :) There are two checkboxes that to this in settings.

Not my experience at all. With one exception: every now and then I have to manually enable WebGL context/canvas.

Quite the opposite; I have it locked down even further with restrictive uBlock Origin settings.
