macOS Sequoia, currently available in public beta, won’t flex all of its AI muscles until after its official release, but the early version already offers an excellent iPhone mirroring feature, a capable one-stop password app, and plenty of new convenience features.

@thomholwerda I've just found that the submission option is also enabled on the desktop.
Damn!

@thomholwerda Thank you for the tip.
(But it is just incredible that we have to go through all that just to disable something that should at least have been an opt-in, or shouldn’t have happened at all. 😬)
@datafuzz @thomholwerda try to search for aboutConfig without the colon
@Lana @thomholwerda do you feel Fennec slower than FF?
Can you use add-ons like Ublock?
@thomholwerda @eniko I have my phone rooted and I use AdAway to block all ads.
The rest of my family uses AdGuard DNSs, have tried any of these?
@thomholwerda interesting. I would've thought that that wasn't active or that it didn't even exist!
Thanks for the tip.

In case you're using Firefox on mobile - so myself and like four others - disabling Firefox' new Facebook data collection feature is quite a bit harder than on desktop, but it can be done:
Go to 'chrome://geckoview/content/config.xhtml'
Use the search field to find the entry for 'about:config' and enable it
Go to 'about:config'
Search for 'dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled' and set it to false
Done.
