A practical guide to configuring Firefox for privacy and usability without relying on third-party forks like Librewolf or Arkenfox. Covers installing a policies.json file, adding uBlock Origin and LocalCDN extensions, disabling telemetry beacons, and a range of about:config tweaks including fingerprinting resistance, WebRTC disabling, DNS-over-HTTPS setup, clipboard event blocking, and autoplay blocking. The author explains their reasoning for avoiding Librewolf and Arkenfox and provides opinionated but actionable steps for a clean Firefox setup.
