That GitLab downtime happened when we had deadlines, luckily git isn't a centralised platform so we merged our changes on a new GitHub repo we created.
Also the GitLab sluggishness reminds me of their daemon which kills the server to control memory leaks[1], although this probably isn't the main cause of the platform's slowness.

Yes, but there are some things (like privacy.resistFingerprinting.letterboxing) which are hidden preferences you won't find in about:config.

I am using ghacks user.js[1], which makes fingerprinting harder and improves my privacy online. Removing user.js would mean less privacy for me.
