Dear all!

Great stuff you have! Some additional suggestions from my side...

Please, have a look at https://github.com/gunnersson and, to be more precise, at https://github.com/gunnersson/my_Mozilla_settings !

That's my repo and project. There's no intention of bad rivalry, but just good competition by me. In fact, there are many users and repos at GitHub of similar idea and content.

But it would be my intention to bring them all a bit together for sharing and collecting.

Maybe, in this way Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird could be a real joy for many people...

Thank you and kind regards,

Gunner

Thanks! Will have a look at your project.

Yes there is ☺️

For those of us who demand more, yes.

I'm wondering: Do you have the service Detect captive portal disabled?

It should be disabled, otherwise it makes all the time connections to www.detectportal.firefox.com

@macandchief, @Thorin-Oakenpants is right, Captive Portal is disabled in https://github.com/ghacksuserjs/ghacks-user.js, but not here. I think improving the automatic diff tools (#256) will help everyone notice interesting prefs in other people's work.

We could list https://github.com/gunnersson/my_Mozilla_settings and others (I think we listed them somewhere...) in a separate section in https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js#other-documentation (ghacks-user.js is already listed there) - edit: already on the TODO list at #256 (comment).

Then we could also add diff targets in the Makefile for those variants. There are already partially-working diff targets for Firefox upstream and TBB preferences.
