#Firefox has too much going on for a default install. Home screen widgets, AI and other things. You need to disable quite a few things in settings to make it focus on browsing. #Librewolf is too restrictive for a normal person to use. Again can be changed in settings but default experience is not ideal for normal web browsing.
I have found #waterfox to be a good middle ground, has sane settings for privacy and can be used straightaway for normal web browsing and video watching. -

Personally, I use #Waterfox and #ZenBrowser. But between the two you mentioned, I'd use #Librewolf since they don't include AI in their browser.

A web browser is probably the single most important program for me, so knowing that #Firefox, #Waterfox and #Librewolf run on #HaikuOS is a big step forward in its... "daily-driver-ability" for me

أطلق متصفح Waterfox 6.7 "Supernova" الجديد، والذي يركز على الخصوصية، بتحويل محركه الأساسي من Gecko ESR 140 إلى Gecko ESR 153. يجلب هذا التحديث عاماً كاملاً من تحسينات الأداء والأمان، مع إعادة بناء الطبقة المخصصة للمتصفح لتعمل بشكل أصلي. كما يوسع الإصدار الجديد خيارات التخصيص البصري بثلاثة أنماط رئيسية و12 لوحة ألوان، ويدمج علامات التبويب الشجرية بشكل أصلي، ويحسن دعم الإضافات القديمة، ويقدم لوحة إعدادات مخصصة لمانع الإعلانات المدمج، ويعزز ترحيل ملفات تعريف فايرفوكس.

Edit: I've discovered what the issue was. It was two widgets on my desktop, one a calendar, the other the weather. I never really looked at them much anyway but whenever the tabs ran in front of those widgets, it would somehow interfere with the mouse pointer and stop it working.
The widgets also interfered with the top bar of the window that allows you to move the window when you click on it. I could only click outside of the widget area to move the window.
Anyway, widgets are gone now.
**************************
I'm having a bit of a problem with the tabs on my browsers.
When I hover the mouse pointer over some tabs, the tab doesn't become bold - which would indicate that it can be selected - and when I click on those tabs, nothing happens. I can't select those tabs.
I've worked out that the problem isn't the tabs but the location on my screen. If I move the whole browser window, there are places where I can select those tabs, but other tabs now become unselectable.
So I think maybe this is a #Linux #Mint problem, rather than a #LibreWolf or #Waterfox problem.
It's a bit weird and annoying.
