    All of the Firefox forks are Firefox with a user.js added to it. So just use Firefox with a user.js. Here’s three user.js’.

      As someone who uses ff with a user script I can totally see why someone would want the convenience of this built in out of the box. We can have both. And a person can use both.

        The biggest problem I have is they don’t link their user.js. So you can see what they’re doing.

          Wdym? It’s open source.

          You know user.js is just Firefox about:config flags built into Firefox from the tor upscale project…you can literally just do about:config and read the setup. Or read the source.

          Heres the repo: https://codeberg.org/librewolf/settings

          Heres their default flags https://codeberg.org/librewolf/settings/src/branch/master/librewolf.cfg
