  • uc

    userChromeJS + subscriptoverlayloader.js (by satyr)

    Wow, you can still use userchrome js nowadays? I thought it has been killed by Firefox long time ago. How exactly do you load it?

    The tool I used before [1] https://github.com/satyr/uc hasn't been updated since 2016, and http://userchromejs.mozdev.org/ is entirely gone.

  • user.js

    You can set preferences with a user.js file in your profile directory. See for example: https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js/blob/master/user.js

  • fingerprintjs

    Browser fingerprinting library. Accuracy of this version is 40-60%, accuracy of the commercial Fingerprint Identification is 99.5%. V4 of this library is BSL licensed.

    I haven't check Firefox's fingerprint resistance but Bromite's is very effective against https://fingerprintjs.com/ at least.

  • archived-content

    Discontinued Archived MDN Web Docs content that is not actively maintained or frequently built

    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...
