## Firefox containers
* [Facebook Container](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/facebook-container/)
* [Google Container](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-container/)
* [Firefox Multi-Account Containers](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/)
* [Temporary containers](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/temporary-containers/)
* Especially in Automatic mode it renders Cookie Autodelete unnecessary
in my opinion and is likely more secure.
* **READ THE FINE MANUAL ON THAT PAGE!**
## Firefox language packs
* [Czech](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/czech-cz-language-pack/)
* [English-US](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/english-us-language-pack/)
* [Esperanto](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/esperanto-language-pack/)
* [Finnish](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/finnish-language-pack/)
## Firefox about:config
* `layout.css.devPixelsPerPx` to `1.25` or `2.0` on macOS Retina to increase font size.
* `privacy.resistFingerprinting` = `true` multiple effects to make your
browser appear less unique, the ones I have found/understood:
* warns if `intl.accept_languages` is not `en-US, en` .
* starts the browser with common size (I love this on big displays).
* spoofs the user-agent as the latest Firefox ESR version.
* `intl.accept_languages` to `en-US, en`
* see above.
* `network.security.esni.enabled` to `true` in order to enable encrypted SNI.
* Requires DoH, see the next section!
#### DNS over HTTPS
2019-02-28 18:48:13 +01:00
* `network.trr.bootstrapAddress` DNS server to use for resolving the DoH
name, e.g. `84.200.70.40` (Resolver 2 of [DNS.watch](https://dns.watch/)
in Germany)
* `network.trr.mode` 3 to enforce DoH which is [required by Firefox ESNI](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1500289)
* `network.trr.early-AAAA` `true` to hopefully prefer IPv6
2019-02-28 18:48:13 +01:00
* `network.trr.uri` for the actual resolver address, e.g.
`https://mozilla.cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query` or
[check curl wiki](https://github.com/curl/curl/wiki/DNS-over-HTTPS#publicly-available-servers)

* [Firefox: Google search link fix](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-search-link-fix/)
* Copied from [PrivacyTools.io](https://privacytools.io), cleans Google
results links.
### Tor

* [Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/privacy-pass/ajhmfdgkijocedmfjonnpjfojldioehi)
* May reduce captchas with CloudFlare.
* [Firefox: Healthy.Onion](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/healthy-onion/)
* **Only for Tor Browser** or other browser going through Tor all the
time as it redirects clearnet addresses to Tor .onion hidden
services that cannot be accessed outside of Tor.
## Productivity

* [Firefox: IPFS Companion](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ipfs-companion/)
* [Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ipfs-companion/nibjojkomfdiaoajekhjakgkdhaomnch)
* At the time of writing, 2018-09-22, I consider IPFS as
**incompatible with Tor Browser** as Tor browser would use the local
IPFS daemon, which **is not using Tor** and thus the IPFS network
**could see your real IP** especially if not many nodes are
requesting the fetched content.
