Firefox privacy, security and anti-tracking: a comprehensive user.js template for configuration and hardening.

I found the extensions section particularly useful:

Arkenfox its documentation is great. When I first found out about it I was blown away on how much one can do in order to improve their online privacy.

Firefox with strict settings is pretty good as a baseline. Arkenfox takes it to a new level.

There's a fork of Arkenfox to use in Thunderbird mail too. Thunderbird Mail is nice but full of telemetry by default.

I didn't know that so thanks for pointing that out. My search results pointed me here. Is this the one you're talking about?

[-] chemicalwonka@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

This is one of its forks but yes.

There are more? Sadly it's just for ESR and now that with Thunderbird Supernova a big overhaul of the email client is out, it's not compatible.
