Experiencing the same issue as everyone else: the add-on simply says "current version: undefined".
There also hasn't been any activity on the linked GitLab for a year; seems like this add-on is abandonware.

Works very well. It only has permission to librewolf.net which meens you need to visit librewolf.net to get notified if there is an update or not. Otherwise you se "current version: undefined"

Is LibreWolf Update Alerter Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
LibreWolf Update Alerter requires very minimum permissions.
