- inactive in user.js since
   - v55: gfx.direct2d.disabled
   - v67: layers.acceleration.disabled
- the way to counter hardware fingerprinting is within each API that may expose it
- this may have made some sense way back in the day, when there were less options/protections, but not any more
- [are we web render yet](https://arewewebrenderyet.com/) - yes, 100% - there is no need to cripple your browser's perf

🟪 user.js

A user.js is a configuration file that can control hundreds of Firefox settings. For a more technical breakdown and explanation, you can read more on the overview wiki page.

🟩 the arkenfox user.js

License: MIT

The arkenfox user.js is a template which aims to provide as much privacy and enhanced security as possible, and to reduce tracking and fingerprinting as much as possible - while minimizing any loss of functionality and breakage (but it will happen).

Everyone, experts included, should at least read the implementation wiki page, as it contains important information regarding a few user.js settings.

Note that we do not recommend connecting over Tor on Firefox. Use the Tor Browser if your threat model calls for it, or for accessing hidden services.

Also be aware that the arkenfox user.js is made specifically for desktop Firefox. Using it as-is in other Gecko-based browsers can be counterproductive, especially in the Tor Browser.
