Customizations for LibreWolf

Off Topic

Hello guys, It is been a while, I hope you are okay.

I saw some of the customizations of browsers like Brave, Vivaldi and others like Nook browser (it is a new one in the hood) so anyway I just looked at my LibreWolf with its “minimal” options of customizations and I asked myself the question I come to ask you about “Is there anyway to customize the look of LibreWolf without installing extensions?”

I mean things like background and some cool stuff and customize this stupid “about:blank” page with something like Tabliss and Homepage (by Ben Phelps) and as an old Vivaldi user i miss this kind of customizations.

If you code, I think you can. Otherwise you will need to install addons (prob. several of them)

LibreWolf is just Firefox with a few patches and some pref changes. You should be able to do the same customization you could do with regular Firefox.

You can have some fun with installing themes, which as far as I know it doesn’t weaken the fingerprinting resistance nor your security.[1]

Librewolf’s UI is just Firefox’s UI. Which means you can customize and switch out the controls, buttons and toolbars.[2] You can also use the sidebar for some of your controls or turn on vertical tabs.[3]

And Linux users can change the look of the theme by simply changing their Legacy Applications Style (GTK4 Theme). This is for example how Zorin OS users have a consistent theme with their browser and OS.
