Not referring specifically to librewolf but rather to the Cachy browser which improves on librewolf. I'm interested in those improvements. I have already used librewolf on Debian 11. Also I would argue that librewolf is a worthy project given their development philosophy.

All silly arguments aside, the only thing that could ever rid the Web of garbage is the end of proprietary software, or an international law against it. That will never happen since it is a fiat based business and its failure might well collapse the world monetary system. As long as Linux struggles for simplicity and detachment there is hope for the common everyday user, but I'm not so sure there is much time left for that hope, as it is sure that Web security is a hoax and it's narrators are always fallaciously manipulative.

Quote:LibreWolf is not affiliated with MozillaI would assume that the Debian 11 package can be installed in Linux Lite given that it is compatible with Ubuntu 22, but that is not my interest here. Some of us believe that Firefox/Mozilla has finally inflicted a mortal wound upon themselves and not just a shot in the foot. Community development and a fork will soon be the only desirable future for good stable secure firefox code. Blink based browsers and Chrome/Chromium in general are not user friendly given their incompatibility with desktop user code and isolations from other applications and shells like bash etc. If the best version is MS Edge (dev), and it clearly is, it should be obvious that they are something we do not need more of in the Linux world. I am not a browser expert or a current developer but I certainly require no education on the subject, since I go all the way back to netscape. Given that there is already a Debian package for Bullseye and SId I think forking and tweaking it for a specific "Lite" browser might be a worthy project for the future.
