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?

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.

I didn't say it was exactly the same as FF, I said it immediately improved my experience of the Internet

Auto logouts are IMHO better for society. Putting friction between users and addictive algorithms is a simple way to encourage healthier and more mindful habits. It also encourages better security education

If people have questions like this it's a good thing. It will make them aware of how much privacy they are giving up so they have to make intentional choices about how they design their digital life

Capitalists have really ruined the culture of UX by making it all about what's good for keeping people hooked & helpless rather than what's in our collective best interests
