Librewolf is still Firefox, but with the settings modified.

The fact that so many users go to a fork just because FF can't get the settings right from the start should be telling! At this stage, every new version, I go through the settings to double check there is no "new feature" I don't want enabled by default… So yes, I am tempted by Librewolf.

I use waterfox, Librefox is too strict. You are right Firefox keeps changing settings that a fork is easier now.
