Bits of code/config/info/links for web browsers (mainly Firefox)

Listed below: links-elsewhere | firefox-style | javascript | firefox-info | other

  • Firefox is amazing (but not perfect), but do not let big companies take over the web, use Firefox as much as you can.  However, if a site does not work in Firefox (sometimes eg: video conference, bank, healthcare), first try an add-on that spoofs your user agent, then if you must use a secondary browser such as Ungoogled Chromium or Brave.  (Avoid the data collecting browsers such as Google/Chrome and Microsoft/Edge).
