How to set timezone without disabling ResistFingerprinting (lemmy.ca)

I recently migrated to Librewolf from Firefox due to Mozilla's recent blunder of covertly adding adware to their browser.

I like the ResistFingerprinting feature for added privacy, but enabling it seems to set my browser time to GMT instead of ET, with most times on webpages (which refer to browser time) ahead by several hours as a result.

Can I define my desired timezone in the browser settings so I don't have to pick one or the other between a correct browser time and better privacy? TIA :D!

This isn't needed anymore. You can configure exceptions for RFP, for example:

defaultPref("privacy.resistFingerprinting.exemptedDomains", "*.foo.com,*.bar.com,*.foobar.com")
