Which settings would you like to change in about:config?

  There's an ever increasing number of settings I need to change every single time I install firefox. For example network.security.banned.override allows connections to ports firefox blocks by default. I also disable things like prefetch/seer, service workers, WebRTC, autorefresh, normandy, experiments, shield, redirects, searching from the address bar, autoplay, webgl, webassembly, autofill, fingerprinting (battery level, network info, etc), mathml, Beacon, SVG, casting, and of course the recent forced pop-up ads for their VPN service (browser.vpn_promo.enabled).

      Normandy is the name of Mozilla’s system to run A/B experiments in Firefox. You can check if you are or have been enrolled in any experiments by entering about:studies in your Firefox address bar. Here are instructions for opting out of experiments: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/shield https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/shield https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-opt-out-studies-firefox-android https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-opt-out-studies-fir...
