I would use Ethernet to install Arch, but my Ethernet port is missing pin 1, making it not work.
Librewolf fedora windows#
It works just fine on Windows and Ubuntu for whatever reason though. I wish I could be using Arch or literally anything besides Ubuntu, but Arch throws a hissy fit when it tries to connect to my house's Wi-Fi and iwd stops seeing networks.
Librewolf fedora windows 10#
On the main hard drive I've got Windows 10 (I accept that the NSA is going to spy on me and there's nothing I can do about it.) On the secondary hard drive I have Ubuntu. OS? I've got a laptop that I use that I swapped the DVD drive for an SSD. U/jasj3322233 for the idea of benchmarking more websites.Anonymous 09/10/22(Sat)13:25:48 No. U/jinnyjuice for your idea of not having win/lose/tie metrics. U/Ticklish_Fuck for giving me the idea of doing this comparison Thanks to these people in special, and everyone that commented in my last comparison: I believe both Librewolf and Brave have their own strengths. I won't say which browser you should use. That's not a concern as of right now, because all of those settings can be disabled in under 5 minutes, but it's still a inconvenience. Brave is also bloated by default, having a lot of settings that a regular user won't use. (librewolf users can y'all also test it and comment the results?)īrave also needs to improve in customization, which is very bad. I'd also love to see some feedback on the WebGL bug I found. Librewolf needs to improve on it's compatibility, as a few websites don't work properly on it.
Just for going with either browser, you're already better protected than 99% of people online. Both have good fingerprinting protection and will make you more private. On compatibility, Brave wins because it doesn't cause as much breakage as Librewolf and if it ever does, it's as simple as loosening or disabling Brave Shields.īoth browsers are good browsers. This setting needs to be done only once, Brave will remember this preference afterwards. Testing the same webpages on Brave, everything works well, and TikTok problem is fixed by using Brave Shields on standard mode. This is not a Librewolf problem, rather a Firefox/Microsoft one regarding WebRTC. Trying to circumvent this by changing the user-agent isn't effective, as you'll not be able to join calls because it runs into errors. Microsoft Teams straight-up refused to run on Librewolf, saying it's incompatible with group calls. I managed to solve this one by installing a open-source extension, but it's still bad that I need an extension for watching Netflix. Netflix couldn't play any videos even after enabling DRM support on the settings. As far as I searched, TikTok relies on a "Dynamic Content API", which is super broken on a hardened browser. It also couldn't play more than 10 videos on the main page, refusing to load content afterwards. On TikTok, it couldn't load a profile, or any saved video. However, Librewolf did fell short on Netflix, TikTok and Microsoft Teams: Actually, Twitch was noticeably smoother on Librewolf! On Librewolf, Reddit, ProtonMail, Telegram, Mega, Twitch and Twitter run well and with ease. That seems to be a thing from the Tor Uplift Project. It allows websites to identify Firefox/Firefox-based users with fingerprinting protection, but not uniquely identify them. Although it is fingerprintable, it changes on a page reload or a browser reload.Įdit: As a comment said, Librewolf assigns the same audiocontext and WebGL fingerprint for all Librewolf users. In Browser Leaks, on canvas section, both browsers seem to have a randomized fingerprint. Librewolf managed to hide time zone and useragent, while Brave couldn't. Both browsers managed to hide / randomize system fonts, canvas fingerprint, WebGL vendor, hardware concurrency, screen size and RAM.īrave managed to hide WebGL fingerprint and audiocontext fingerprint, while Librewolf couldn't. In Cover Your Tracks, both browsers did well. Brave does it using Brave Shields, which is their own fingerprint protection feature.'
