    Is it as simple to use out of the box as Firefox or does it require some tinkering first?

      No tinkering required, technically you could achieve the same result with regular Firefox + tinkering.

      It’s as simple out of the box but with a greater focus on privacy with telemetry off and the pocket integration disabled.

        Can confirm. Started using it yesterday after another comment. It’s pretty much plain FF, so works well right out of the gate. I enabled some features in the setting like Firefox sync and allow DRM media, but I’m really liking it.

          I’ve found that it might not work on banking sites because of the fingerprinting protection. Be warned, if you try to use on banking sites, you may be locked out. I suggest you do all banking and stuff on a separate browser that saves cookies and tracks you.

            I don’t use banking websites, I just use the app so can’t confirm. I would imagine it’ll be down to the default cookie blocking which you can edit in the settings though if it causes issues for you

            I don’t have issue on my banking site but I’m not surprised, privacy settings tend to break some sites.
