Firefox about:config Menu Shortcut
Yes we can still create uc.js in 2022. MDN no longs serve the XUL doc. However we can search their archived doc repo, e.g. https://github.com/mdn/archived-content/search?q=nsIPrefServ...

Information or Documentation
MDN used to have some good documentation, back before webextensions when it was expected that third-party addon developers would be modifying the frontend directly. that's no longer supported though, so all those juicy pages on XUL and XPCOM have been removed. they can still be found on here but not in a very useful format.

How can I add extra elements?
it's archived on here but the pictures are missing so it's just... fucked honestly. I am so frustrated and aggravated by this. it makes it that much harder for someone to pick this up as a hobby, which makes it that much harder for firefox to find new contributors. anyway, frame scripts are a bit annoying to use. but since about:newtab is a firefox system page (it has a system principal), addons can't inject anything into it either. so you couldn't use greasemonkey or something.

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...).

[Help] How do I change the new tab page in Firefox
This is what you're looking for.

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)
-
What are downsides and upsides of all the updates since after G3 for you?
Bootstrapped extensions are supported (really, xiaoxiaoflood is the only one who maintains any popular ones).

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)

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
