I actually tried to install Librewolf today and it wouldn’t go because of gatekeeper. Ended up on Waterfox instead.

Would’ve preferred Librewolf because that’s what I run on my other desktop running Linux but what can you do…



You can still use Librewolf, if you manually remove the quarantine attribute after every update and reboot. It’s very annoying, but at least it’s possible for now

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/LibreWolf.app


Oh wow, thanks for that, makes things even easier than “Find app and ctrl click”.


...or automatically remove the quarantine attribute: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45913209
