As the title suggests. I want community opinions on the Arc browser.

LibreWolf does seem to go a bit too far with the hardening. It's fine if you're used to Tor Browser or Mull Browser but as a general recommendation... ehh.

on the other hand I think it is not enough and do have a more extreme set up on regular firefox

Librewolf gives you options, and if you don't want to toggle them on, you're free to do so. I vehemently disagree with your analysis and I believe the protection that Librewolf provides should be considered bare-minimum in this age. This should be the default browser, not Firefox

These do sound like they are enabled by default though, hence the breakage?

If websites work with them, sure. But if they don't, try explaining that to your grandma.

They aren't though

If you think so, the extra features can be disabled from the settings, because LW added an extra section for them too... No hunting through about:config.
