So I have seen comments that bitwardens extension works and want to check if no script does. Since libre wolf is just configuration I figure most stuff should work but not real sure. I looked to see if there was something like a pinned questions thread which I would normally put a minor question like this. Considering recent news maybe instead a moving from firefox pinned thread for awhile first.

If librewolf is just about low fingerprintability then I don’t think I understand it at all. Thanks.

Noob here - How come browser extensions can be used in fingerprinting? Why is the fact that I have an extension shared with servers? Why doesn’t a browser like Libre Wolf refuse to share this? Is it really ingrained in the we browsing process to pass that info back? It seems like it should remain on the client-side. I can see Google sharing it but why can’t LibreWolf decide not to?

Got it, so it’s not that the browser passes an extension list to the server, but the server could recognize an extensions impact on the page with local JS or something and then send that info home. Could that in theory be blocked?

It’s built against the latest version and kept up to date with it, so you should be fine. The only extension I had an issue with was KeePassXC, but because it communicates with an application outside the browser. I had to symlink a single directory and now everything works just the same.

yeah. I figured worse come to worse I could start testing various alts.
I’ve only installed a handful, but they’ve all worked fine except for KeePassXC-Browser - and that’s partly q known issue with a workaround and partly Flatpak (which made it hard to apply the workaround)
