Almost all the links in my front homepage are sponsored now. What's next, a few ads in the bookmark bar? How about when I enter a URL, I then have to type "McDonald's" before I can actually navigate there?

I wouldn't recommend LibreWolf to the average user as they'll unfoubtedly stretch their attack surface thin.

It's not gonna make them more exposed than vanilla Firefox

Absolutely, it's just the browser extensions most end-users want/need that would cause them distress in that regard. It's simply not as user friendly from what I can recall, it's been a while since I last used it so it may have improved since then
