Firefox alternatives

Well don’t use plain Firefox since:

For desktop use LibreWolf.

Also available for Windows, but if your are using Windows, you already accepted the Micro$oft enshittification, so you might as well just use plain Firefox.

On Android use IronFox.

Popups

Load Web browser links into a (new window=2, new tab=3, current tab=1)

browser.link.open_newwindow = 3

Load external links into a (new window=2, new tab=3, current tab=1)

browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external = 3

Load these popups into existing windows (all popups=0, unresized popups=2, none=1)

browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction = 0

Domain Guessing

browser.fixup.alternate.enabled = false

Search from address bar

keyword.enabled = false
browser.urlbar.oneOffSearches = false

Translate popup

browser.translations.automaticallyPopup = false

Media autoplay

Some settings are not available in the UI:

media.autoplay.default = 5
media.autoplay.blocking_policy = 2
media.autoplay.allow-extension-background-pages = false
media.autoplay.block-event.enabled = true

Keyboard shortcuts

Some websites likes to redefine keyboard shortcuts in the browser (unknown=0, allow=1, block=2, prompt=3):

permissions.default.shortcuts = 2

Prompt doesn’t seem to work.
