user.js
file is entirely platform independent. I use it on Linux, Windows and even used it on my work provided Macbook. FYI:user.js
only contains the settings you want to change, it’s not the wholeprefs.js
file. It’s just 63 lines.I agree that chrome feels cleaner and needs a lot less fiddling to get right, but chrome is effectively dead for me. I switched to firefox for much more important reasons than a few UI annoyances.

Removing it from the toolbar just hides it, but keeps it running.

Multiplied by all the other annoyances you have to turn off, via either gui or
about:config
, each and every time. I feel you.I hop machines fairly frequently, use multiple browsing profiles, and often create discardable profiles, so I eventually just went ahead and spent some time tracing all the
about:config
equivalents of the settings that I typically change every time and then put them in auser.js
file that I can just drop into my profile directory.
US defaultism much?
This is absolutely not a thing where I live and it sounds quite entitled to expect this level of personal service from an underpaid and overworked worker who’s probably already overbooked and struggling to finish his round on time.
Here a delivery driver will come to the street facing door of a building, and attempt to deliver with you in person, or if you live up high you can buzz him in to put the package in the shared entrance space, but he’s not going to go on a lone quest to gain access to every single private multitenant building. You’re not home, and haven’t given permission to deliver to your neighbors? Tough shit. Come pick up the package at the depot.
They don’t want to deal with pushing the buttons to enter the premises
Why should they have to though? It’s not a delivery driver’s job to jump through various hoops to gain access to a private residence, and that’s not even going into the liability and safety issues that come with it.
Also, why even bother having a door code if you’re giving it out to every random delivery driver.
I think 10GbE is more intended for local applications than for internet. Say, you have a NAS with a RAID array of nvme drives for video editing purposes that you want to access from a few workstations.
Even the other day I was quite happy to have 2.5GbE when I installed my new gaming PC, and steam was able to pull all my games directly from my old computer rather than downloading them over the internet again.
Anyway, LAN speeds have always been an order of magnitude higher than common internet speeds, so I don’t see the issue.
