I installed Firefox on two laptops today, it seemed to be disabled by default.

It sounds like it was just a thing for the browser on android/mobile

I remember having to disable it in my existing installation. But I also could be imagining things.

In about config telemetry is enabled on Firefox by default. You have to rebuild to disable it. That's why you should be using Librewolf.

I can't install Librewolf as the main browser in my work environment. Firefox is fine for everyone at my work.

Out of curiosity, is it because they haven't approved it or do they see some problem with it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

They dont even know about it. I just got Firefox approved like a year or two ago. I just have bigger fish to fry than another browser my users didn't ask for.
