          For me, it was multi-account containers. All Meta properties open in their own independent, sandboxed tabs now. Xwitter opens in a different independent, sandboxed tab. It makes their tracking cookies useless, plus it also lets you be logged into the same service with multiple accounts simultaneously.

          Vimium. Allows you to use your keyboard to navigate instead of needing to always reach for the mouse.

      No, HVEC / H.265 codec support so no modern 4K security camera or plex/jellyfin etc high quality video support.

        According to caniuse.com, it works now in the Nightly builds and can be enabled in other builds via the media.wmf.hevc.enabled pref in about:config.

        I use Firefox Dev Edition and I think it’s enabled there. But either way, you can enable it on stable.

          Night, windows only, and needs to be enabled with about: config… ie it almost has some support maybe. Also doesn’t work via webrtc so it doesn’t actually help me with the viewing the security cam feeds.

        H265 isn’t the only option there. AV1 is great and fully supported by Jellyfin (and I imagine Plex?)

          H.265 is the defecto standard on Security cameras, and I am not going to migrate content to AV1 that is already in H.265.

            Jellyfin can handle the transcoding to AV1 where needed. Albeit that’s a bit less ideal than direct play as you need the hardware to transcode.
