I don’t think it was there until I enabled firefox sync. I’d like to remove what is inside the red box. Does anyone know how to do that?

Doesn’t it also turn on stuff like aggressive fingerprint protection (which provides more protection against fingerprinting, but also breaks more and more important stuff).
Yes, these additional settings are turned on by default. If you find they interfere with your browser experience you can turn them off to bring things back to near-stock firefox.
I’ve yet to find anything that it broke after weeks of use… and anyway it takes two seconds to disable that for a few mins in the rare event it’s necessary.
Overall an unambiguously better internet experience on LibreWolf coming from years of FireFox for me.
I mean, that’s the thing, isn’t it? It’s easy to turn off if you know that and what you need to turn off. Literally on this same page there’s someone mentioning they keep getting logged out, which is because Librewolf clears cookies on exit - which of course was completely reasonable for them not to know. So it feels like “it’s exactly the same as Firefox” is setting the wrong expectations.
do you happen to know a fork that doesn’t do that? A Firefox exactly the same but without mozilla’s BS is what I’m looking for.
You can just disable it.
There’s also Floorp which you could check out. I’m not sure how aggressive it is.
