      You only disable the chat. Overall setting seems to be browser.ml.enable.

        I also see an extensions.ml.enable. Anyone with actual knowledge of the source code know what those are doing?

      I hate how many of these you have to do on any new installation of Firefox.

          That’s basically what librewolf, waterfox, and a whole bunch of others are. In the same way manjaro and endeavor etc. are opinionated arch installs with spackling, those browsers are opinionated settings-already-selected versions of firefox.
