I did the same as you of curiosity and was wondering what this site is even supposed to do.
I guess my disabling of javascript by default to avoid annoyances, improve performance and save battery rendered the annoying part useless.
Sometimes I wish mozilla had chosen to make firefox more like opera (the real opera, not the chrome based one) and not like chrome with the quick disable/enable script setting instead of removing the possibility to disable javascript altogether. Actually I wish opera was still around to not have to deal with mozilla nonsense by resorting to using a different build (waterfox) to mitigate most of it.
- giancarlostoro 8y agoYeah I hate that they burried the option to disable JS and even worse to disable JS moving and resizing a window around the screen. At least make those things the end-user is asked for permission to allow.

- giancarlostoro 8y agoI think they can dumb it down if they want.... BUT have an 'advanced' button for people who know what they're doing. I wonder how simple of a plugin it could be to make a 'Firefox Config Plus' if one doesn't already exist...
- iforgotpassword 8y agoThanks now I'll be all depressed missing old opera again for two weeks.
