ive suggested this before in another thread too. i really think that firefox customized with user.js and some other addons is a lot better than any of the forks because theyre always so outdated and have many issues. its not hard to disable all the privacy/security/feature issues which come with firefox
from user.js.
about:icecat is a page with links to information about the free software and privacy features in IceCat, and checkboxes to enable and disable the ones more prone to break websites. You can toggle the addons included in Icecat, as:
Block execution of non-free JavaScript
Block privacy trackers with Easylist in Adblockplus
Use Tor when in Private Mode
Use https-everywhere
Request pages in English
Use system fonts
from user.js.
I am still curious whether Icecat has something more to offer; would an Icecat user please copy-paste the settings found in about:icecat here?
I installed IceCat (45.5.1) and about:icecat
is nowhere to be found. You get the regular "The address isn't valid" error. about:home
does work and is the default homepage, but it only contains a search bar as seen here:
from user.js.
Also the IceCat tour link from the help menu is full of nothing.
from user.js.
So it was a dead end. I'm closing this now. Feel free to re-open if the need arises.
from user.js.
