Because I know people will ask: the browser is LibreWolf.

I mean, that's literally the entire point of LibreWolf, isn't it?

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Depends. If the meme is about sites with user accounts, sure. If it’s about “prove you’re not a DDOS” cloudflare crap and identifying photos of traffic lights before being able to get to static sites, then it’s an annoying side effect.

There is a 99% chance that Google and these companies are weaponizing this due to the threat to their business models.

I think logging you out of websites every time you close the browser is overkill. It's already better for privacy than Google Chrome. I had to change some settings in LibreWolf, so it's all good now. But you still have to login to your accounts, which gave me the idea to make this meme

I thought librewolf specifically doesn't store cookies? If they don't store cookies how would you propose they keep you logged in?

[–] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're right that, by default, LibreWolf deletes your browsing history, cache, etcetera every time you exit. But this can be changed in the settings. Personally I'm looking for a more private browser but I don't need it to go that far.

Going the route of deleting all of that on close is sorta like using a nuke when a scalpel would have sufficed.

Perfect analogy. It truly is the nuclear option.

It wipes cookies on close.
