minus-squareboredsquirrel@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up14·6 months agoLibrewolf uses Torbrowser configs, Mull uses the Torbrowser repo and entire config. Torbrowser always uses the private browsing mode, which is really restrictive. Tabgroups do not work, cookies cannot be saved etc. This makes MullvadBrowser way worse for daily browsing. Torbrowser cannot use normal browsing mode, because they want to avoid saving data on the disk. Everything is in RAM.
