Have they implemented the update option yet, or does it still rely on unofficial methods for updating?

They provide official deb and rpm builds for linux, which get updated in the usual ways. I don't know about windows but the website says:

you can choose to install the LibreWolf WinUpdater, which is included in the installer.

Looks like it's available in the Windows Package Manager Community Repository, so you can update it via winget update LibreWolf.LibreWolf or keep it up to date using the Winget-AutoUpdate tool.

Librewolf is also available as a Flatpak

The LibreWolf WinUpdater works great. You get a small pop-up when there's an update and it updates super quickly (in my experience in like 15 seconds).
