Why Mobile-Friendly Websites are Crucial for Business Success
AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages): AMP is an open-source initiative by Google that aims to make mobile pages load faster. By implementing AMP, you can create mobile-friendly web pages that load almost instantly.

It’s about to get colorful
sigh... guessing you were on mobile and it was just easier but since I consider AMP to shit, for anyone else who wants it, here is the normal non-AMP link:
- Those goddamn millennials wanting "personal space"
- Tetragonula hockingsi bee colony, native to Australia

Year 2 of the Ukraine War is going to get scary
(AMP itself is just an open source web framework. For example, all Axios pages actually use AMP.)

The link you have submitted is an AMP link These have be criticised by many people for a variety of reasons. In view of that we encourage users to not use AMP links for submissions but instead to use the actual URL linked to publishers site. If you are on a mobile device and don't know how to get the proper URL consider trying to disable Google Search and you should be furnished with actual links to real websites and not googles referred links.

Lifelong Chrome user switching to Firefox, are there any extensions that are a MUST on the browser?
The exception is Redirect AMP To HTML, which does just that. (AMP has various organisational and technical issues; bypassing it also makes page links shorter when quoted).

Problems with custom scrollbar after updating to FF117
For a long time, I've been making use of a MacOS-esque scrollbar I found online. I'm using XiaoXiaoFlood's loader script, and I've made the necessary changes to the files mentioned here to make it able to load .js and .uc.js files again. I've also modified the script a fair bit, though reverted most as it didn't work. Currently, I'm using this one, which has simply commented out the things that rely on Services. Though, even if I add it with something like const Services = globalThis.Services || ChromeUtils.import("resource://gre/modules/Services.jsm").Services; it doesn't make much of a difference. I've also tried using a userChrome.xml file, but that doesn't do much anymore. Was around 72/75 where that stopped working right?

Firefox Address Bar Tips
Though for the full value I personally really also need some sort of interface that can show individual page visits in order to answer the question "What other pages did I visit at that point in time?" (sometimes I don't remember the right keywords to find a certain page again, but only some other page I visited during the same browsing session). The built-in history view is only of limited value here, because it always only shows the most-recent visit, so as soon as you visit a page again, it moves to the front of the list again and loses its original place and history context.
As usual, there used to be an add-on for that, which was subsequently broken by the move to webextensions (and even if somebody wanted to rewrite it, the webextension API doesn't cater for its full functionality). Thankfully some kind soul has maintained a version hacked to still work even on a current Firefox (https://github.com/xiaoxiaoflood/firefox-scripts/tree/master...).

How do I get rid of this gray overlay on hover in the context menu? (only the buttons along the top are affected)
Heads up though, it doesn't work for most tooltips. For that, I found the only way to change them is to use the above code in an agentsheet (https://github.com/xiaoxiaoflood/firefox-scripts, see the "StyloaiX" section)

Firefox will get rid of cookie banners by auto-rejecting cookies
depending on your needs existing extensions may work for you, though the ContentScript based implementations have issues, if that's not enough you can use https://github.com/xiaoxiaoflood/firefox-scripts as it allows you to run the code in the browser UI, unfortunately there's no easy to use extension (and sadly FireGestures require update to work, even with loader injected into Quantum) so you may need to work with the code a bit (or more)
- Private Tabs instead of windows

Firefox it is (Or its forks. Need Suggestions.)
do what exactly? inject code? there are many slightly different approaches, the most reliable seems to be https://github.com/xiaoxiaoflood/firefox-scripts and using an approach like that forks can add extra configs to the UI making users' lives easier
