📣 Release Notes

Privacy-Preserving Attribution is disabled.
- BTW, I think this is a step in the right direction for normies; but if you're already using an adblocker, then this API is pointless.
- Read more about this from Mozilla's CTO on Reddit.
We now trim https from the URL bar, which is fine since the padlock icon in the URL bar indicates whether a site has a secure connection. The https will still be included if you copy the site address.
- You can choose to reveal URL scheme on double-click by activating the pref browser.urlbar.untrimOnUserInteraction.featureGate.
- Alternatively, you can disable this feature entirely by adding user_pref("browser.urlbar.trimHttps", false); to your overrides.
To address repeated issues (#209, #285, #304, #286, #267, #216, #298), I have added the Color Themes and Downloads sections to Common Overrides page.
Firefox Suggest is now completely hidden in the settings UI and the URL bar.
We added options to disable WASM and JIT (not recommended). #299
Various documentation cleanup and improvements.

Most notably, Mozilla's geo-location service has been shut down as an alternative to Google. After applying the new user.js, you'll need to reset the pref geo.provider.network.url. mozilla/ichnaea#2065
They also made further improvements to mixed content handling on sites, allowing us to remove a few related prefs.
Santize on Close prefs have been reworked and will be updated in the Optional Hardening page soon™. Hopefully, Mozilla will clear out the old prefs so it's less of a mess.
