Hello.
Firefox 53 completely drops mozSettings and removes its about:config entries. As this thing was never used in Pale Moon, maybe these code and configuration strings could also be removed from our browser?

It was never used on desktop and in FF 53 it got completely removed (at least all configuration strings were).

Re: mozSettings removal
My deal is to suggest, developers - to consider the importance. If cleaning the code base and configs is not necessary at the moment - OK.Matt A Tobin wrote:Why is it important?
