Last updated : 7/2/2026
Changelog :
- 7/2/2026
	- Initial commit
	- firefox-esr 140.8.0-1

+ Installation
- Connect to internet
- # pacman -Syu
- # pacman -S firefox-esr
- Disconnect from internet before opening Firefox. Feel free to connect after operating on Firefox.
- (optional, recommended) apply custom hosts file for blocking Mozilla connections

+ Bootstrapping Firefox with user.js (mozilla.cfg incoming?)
- Open Firefox & go to about:profiles to discover default profile directory
- Open file manager, copy user.js to default profile root directory
- (optional) Add user-override.js to default profile root directory
- Restart Firefox
- Check settings, debug for personal use & stuff (edit user.js, write stuff in user-override.js if available, etc.)
- Drag & drop extensions (uMatrix, smart HTTPS, redirector, etc.)

+ Extensions
- uMatrix
	- Tick almost everything in "Settings", leaving "Enable cloud storage support" and "Color-blind friendly" unticked (unless you are color-blind then maybe tick the "color-blind friendly"?)
	- Import configs
	- Disable Auto-update assets in "Assets" (updating later when connected to internet)

- Smart HTTPS
	- Tick "Disable whitelisting HTTP protocols"

- Redirector (einar)
	- Import configs

+ Additional notes
- mozilla.cfg is meant for global application; user.js applies per-profile. The former is deemed mostly unnecessary if the latter is applied, but only for the current user.
