At least the code is open, and Librewolf works great.

Edit: I'm going to rephrase this so as not to divert it on the misinterpretation of a particular case.

Librewolf doesn't check anything, it just applies patches automatically. That's why sometimes bugs happen, like corrupting the user profiles of all flatpak users a year ago; entirely the fault of librewolf for not updating a line of code, and not of any third party.

If you read into it, it was because the users Software Manager chose to downgrade from v108 > v107. I wouldn’t knock this on the Librewolf team, although I don’t use it, so there could be other issues I wouldn’t know about.
