🦊 Firefox Release

✅ Betterfox Updates

  • Thanks for helping Betterfox reach over 800 ⭐!
  • Betterfox received enough word-of-mouth on r/Firefox that we have our own AutoModerator message 😆 🔥 🔥
    • This was before r/Firefox mods started throwing a fit about the API changes. (RIP Apollo and my mobile Reddit usage.)
    • Check out m/firefox (Fedia) if you'd like a return to sanity.
  • There's hardly anything to tweak in the recent releases, which is why you haven't seen any user.js updates in a few months. But that's not a bad thing!
    • There are some interesting features coming down the pipeline.
    • And Firefox 115 ushered in a new ESR base.
      • FF115 migrates users of Windows 7/8 and macOS 10.12/13/14 to Firefox ESR.
  • I've reported ETP Strict breaking more sites (bugs 1804486 1836071 1817656).
    • In the future, I may change Betterfox over to ETP Custom to use the more relaxed internal Disconnect blocklist.
    • You can easily modify which internal blocklist is used and change it to lvl1.
      • Unfortunately, Nightly forces the lvl2 list when using ETP Strict, even if you change the pref. No luck there.

📝 Release Notes

  • enabled Cookie Banner Handling to dismiss annoying cookie pop-ups where Mozilla has created rules for them.
    • This feature still enforces Total Cookie Protection to limit cross-site cookie tracking, even if you Accept all cookies on a page.
    • Betterfox prioritizes hiding the banners since Firefox already blocks extraneous cookies unless needed.
