Nice! Now add about:config to stable releases

  As an alternative, you can get a stable release with about:config by installing Firefox (or Mull) from F-Droid.

  curious, what do you want to do with about:config on FF for Android?
  • autoexec 3y ago
    Mostly, basic security things like disabling prefetch, disabling WebRTC, disabling redirects, preventing sites from reading my battery level, preventing firefox from changing what I type in the address bar (fixup), etc

      Battery status was disabled in Firefox in 2016. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/nov/01/firefox-disable-battery-status-api-tracking https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/nov/01/firefox-d...

    Disabling telemetry for one. Not that this should be enabled in the first place.
    • yoavm 3y ago
      You don't need about:config to disable that, you can do it from the regular settings screen.

        Not all of it and not in a way that has a chance of staying disabled when they add new ways to exfiltrate data.
