With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

You are not wrong. This is a suggestion for slightly more advanced users that are into privacy. I do think it could be hardened more. I wonder why all permissions are not blocked by default.

At least I didn't suggest Lynx.

Oh yeah, not meaning to hate on your suggestion, just giving a fair warning to those who are looking to take the plunge. I consider myself advanced and librewolf drove me crazy for a few days but stuck with it and found a balance of settings that I like.

I appologize if I came across negative in any way and, I am certain, I did not feel any negativity from you. Your warnings are absolutely valid and needed to be brought up. I think, in the back of my head I thought that most users on lemmy are slightly more tech savvy than the average user.

Glad you stuck with it! I love it.

No apologies needed! Cheers!
