Betterfox is a curated user.js preference file that hardens Mozilla Firefox for privacy, security, and speed via about:config tweaks. It bundles opinionated settings guides (Securefox, Peskyfox, Smoothfox) into a single drop-in configuration file.
Use cases
- make firefox more private without extensions
- speed up firefox browsing performance
- harden firefox against tracking
- apply recommended about:config settings
- reduce firefox telemetry and data collection
- one-file firefox configuration with minimal site breakage
When to choose
- you want a maintained, opinionated Firefox privacy/performance baseline without third-party code
- you prefer a single user.js file over manually tweaking about:config
- you want privacy hardening that avoids breaking everyday websites
When to avoid
- you use a browser other than Firefox or Gecko-based forks
- you need fully audited, compliance-grade hardening rather than opinionated defaults
- you are unwilling to back up your profile or review overrides before applying
