What's a good #browser as an alternative to #LibreWolf.
I'm still using LibreWolf but if I wanted two browsers open at the same time, what would be a good combination?

I don't use #LibreWolf, so I'm only working from Web searches, but you may not need a second browser. There seems to be a multi-account containers extension, which enables you to log on to the same site multiple times under different accounts in different colour-coded tabs:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/librewolf-multi-account-containers-lite
The only evidence I can find for it is via Arch Linux, but if it's available for Arch then it's likely to be available for your chosen OS (so this is not a "just run Linux" reply ๐).
There's an equivalent extension for #Firefox; I use it all the time, and it works well.

@lydiaconwell @CppGuy Containers do indeed work on Librewolf. So depending on why you want multiple browsers that could indeed be the answer.

@lydiaconwell If you just want separate logins and things then containers do that. I have separate containers for different websites all the time. Back when I used Facebook it was quarentined and segregated to it's own container.
So sounds like that'll work fine.
If you wanted it for crash resistance so if one of the browsers crashed the other kept going, say, it wouldn't help though coz its still the same code.
Which is good, for you usecase, because it means not having the memory footprint of two separate browsers.

@lydiaconwell Sorry meant to link to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/ not the github.

@lydiaconwell WaterFox if you want another Firefox fork, Vivaldi for something based on WebKit, and you can try the barebone Servo GUI if you want to see how something with less mature standards compliance works.
