The new Firefox claims to have "plus all the knowledge you need to protect yourself online."

Where is all this knowledge?

support.mozilla.org keeps flashing on Firefox as pages load.

I am photosensitive and have not been able to protect myself from Firefox’s default settings, or from many web sites. I would really like to be able to protect myself.

support.mozilla.org’s main accessibility article does not address my accessibility and safety needs, though it does address some others:

Searching for “photosensitive”

“We couldn’t find any results for photosensitive in English. Maybe one of these articles will be helpful?”

I worked out a partial list of fixes here:

and here:

I mostly use both Waterfox and Firefox with numerous accessibility fixes, but still get very sick when hit with certain types of animation.
