- "enforce" is for when we set the default value - use [WARNING] for inactive (they're inactive for a reason and people really do not need to turn them on) but less scary [NOTE] for active (tweak away at your own risk) - seems neater, easier and less scary for users setting up the first time: i.e they only need to initially look at active items - FYI: I was going to add something to LSNG (2760) that it is required for Fission, but will wait, and it struck me that 2680 was the only active item with a warning: seems inconsistent - 2684: security delay .. make enforce mean enforce (default) ... not worth occasionally saving .3 seconds - for now it's one less item in differences/flips - might make this inactive in 91+, and add a warning - it has been a very long time since we added this due to bad advise/references on the internet on how to speed up Firefox |

🟪 user.js
A user.js
is a configuration file that can control hundreds of Firefox settings. For a more technical breakdown and explanation, you can read more on the overview wiki page.
🟩 the arkenfox user.js
The arkenfox user.js
is a template which aims to provide as much privacy and enhanced security as possible, and to reduce tracking and fingerprinting as much as possible - while minimizing any loss of functionality and breakage (but it will happen).
Everyone, experts included, should at least read the implementation wiki page, as it contains important information regarding a few user.js
settings.
Note that we do not recommend connecting over Tor on Firefox. Use the Tor Browser if your threat model calls for it, or for accessing hidden services.
Also be aware that the arkenfox user.js
is made specifically for desktop Firefox. Using it as-is in other Gecko-based browsers can be counterproductive, especially in the Tor Browser.
