Why should they have any?

Their lack of manpower means delayed updates to fix zero days compared to Firefox

From their site:

LibreWolf is always built from the latest Firefox stable source, for up-to-date security and features along with stability.

As soon as firefox pushes a release, for instance to fix a security vulnerability, librewolf can immediately rebuild It is literally just firefox with different setting. Delay between firefox release and librewolf release should be negligible. You can verify this by noting that 136.0 was offered on the same day.

The difference in time between firefox and librewolf security updates is less than the variance between users updating their machines.

Librewolf is firefox with different settings how does it not already benefit from Firefox’s security team

We value the gains both immediate and presumed more than the harm

Ok so explain particularly what this means

Because it makes up things that are 99% correct and in some areas the 99% + verification and expansion can be superior time wise to the 100% manual route

Do you actually experience something different. People absolutely have different skill sets and can be excellent in one area and be mediocre in others however virtually always the users looking for the any key or complaining a device wont turn on because the monitor is off are the people that are generally dumb as rocks.

It would be more accurate to say that rather than knowing anything at all they have a model of the statistical relationship between a series of tokens and subsequent tokens which words are apt to follow other words and because the training set contains many true things the words produced in response to queries often contain true statements and almost always contain statements that LOOK like true statements.

Since it has no inherent model of the world to draw on and only such statistical relationships you should check anything important

Maybe people need to learn that AI hallucinates

Ya you are holding it wrong. If it wants a different basic library version than you have available to you then the solution is never ever to somehow go and get the library this will never ever ever work and will only succeed in breaking your entire system as all the other stuff now doesn’t work with the new library.

In my experience on average the incompetent are also kind of stupid. Is your experience different?

Sounds like self inflicted pain. If you absolutely needed the latest why are you simultaneously running debian again?

Two things.

One: You could literally say use Linux Mint in 2010 and in 2025 and be ok. You don’t need to know about the totality of the ecosystem in order to use Linux any more than you must understand the totality automotive tech and every car to pick one and drive. If you pick the something different its also probably good enough.

Two: If they really are too stupid at some degree of ineptitude they are just going to need to pay someone smarter their money whether that is Apple, another Windows machine, or even a Linux OEM. Installing your own OS on an infinite range of hardware with a range of support is never going to be so easy someone who is entirely tech illiterate can do it and that is ok.

Mint is Ubuntu with cinnamon minus snap +user friendliness

Install Linux Mint Cinnamon. You don’t need to be a coder and there is a discord for any tech support needs

They can also claim with a straight face that autopilot has a crash rate that is artificially lowered without it being technically a lie in public, in ads, etc
