In other words, zero unauthorized or background connections by default. -- User settings updates: gHacks/pyllyukko base is kept up to date. -- Settings protection: important settings are enforced/locked within `librewolf.cfg` and `policies.json`, those settings cannot be changed by addons/updates/LibreWolf itself or unwanted/accidental manipulation; To change those settings you can easily do it by editing `librewolf.cfg` and `policies.json`. -- LibreWolf-addons: set of optional LibreWolf extensions -- Statistics disabled: telemetry and similar functions are disabled -- Tested settings: settings are performance aware -- Multi-platform (Windows/Linux/Mac/and soon Android) -- Dark theme (classic and advanced) -- Recommended and *code reviewed* addons list -- Community-Driven -- And much more... - - -## Download and Installation - -### Linux - -#### Manual Compilation -- Build instruction will be updated soon - -#### AppImage -LibreWolf is available in an AppImage Format.
