The one video I saw suggested running this betterfox.js file or some more elaborate ones. Is that really necessary?

Or are there just some settings that I should change?

(Already run ublock origin if that matters.)

    Trafotin made a good normie friendly intro video breaking it down. He uses arkenfox in his example but most importantly, touches on customizing/creating these scripts yourself. By the end you will have at least a basic understanding of removing features scripts miss and how to add back features you may want.

      I’ve watched half of the video and gotta say it all sounds very complicated. And since I don’t know exactly what changes are made or options set back to default with that cleaner-script I decided to just get through every entry in the user-overrides.js provided. In hindsight this was a good idea because I know some of these changes in the settings would have broken stuff for me. Actually I didn’t have to change a single option because my Firefox was already hardened enough. ;) At least I now know I’m good and have been good.
