I just switched from firefox to librewolf and I imported the autofill passwords through a csv file, but autofill isn't working when I log into websites (the autofill option doesn't show up when I click into "enter password") and I have to manually copy the passwords from about:logins. How do I fix that?

In Librewolf go to settings > Privacy and Security and mark "Autofill logins and passwords"

Thanks, that works

But now sites still don't log me in automatically after logging in once, and I still have to log in manually every time I restart the browser. How do I fix that?

In Librewolf go to settings > Privacy and Security and uncheck "Delete cookies and site data when LibreWolf is closed"

@first_ad4972 @Gordon_Freeman @librewolf you have to enable cookies. It's safer to do it by adding exceptions for the specific sites you need. Go to Settings->Privacy & Security->Cookies and Site Data->Manage Exceptions

Well thats the whole point tbh , you better be using firefox then ?

What I want is just a completely open source browser that doesn't connect to any company, and I don't want to use ungoogled chromium.

Firefox already is. That's why there are plenty of forks of it, like Icewasel, TOR browser, PaleMoon, WaterFox, LibreWolf, because Firefox is opensource
