I tried librewolf and it made all the exact same calls out that Firefox did on shutdown. Now I just disable the network before killing Firefox and then run bleachbit. I also mount some directories as tmpfs. What are the benefits of librewolf over Firefox? I could not find any. AFAIK its still just Firefox under the hood.

What calls?

All the same non user initiated calls to Mozilla and other endpoints. Run tcpdump to see them. (both TCP and UDP now) I run a command before I close internet applications and all outbound connections are logged in dmesg via netfilter. Be sure to also log all DNS queries on your firewall.
