</translate>

~~==== Enhancing Privacy ====~~

~~</translate>~~

Firefox defaults to native Wayland when running under a Wayland compositor. To force it to use XWayland (X11) instead:

~~{{Note|Hardening~~ Firefox ~~often involves~~ a ~~trade-off between privacy and convenience. Some websites may not function correctly with aggressive settings.}}~~

~~<translate>~~

~~~~

~~Beyond the declarative settings above, you can further enhance privacy:~~

* '''Container Tabs''': Use an extension like [https://addons.mozilla.~~org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/ Multi-Account Containers]~~ to ~~isolate websites from each other, preventing cross-site tracking.~~

* '''DNS over HTTPS (~~DoH~~)~~'''~~: ~~Encrypt your DNS queries by enabling DoH in Firefox's network settings to prevent ISP snooping.~~

</translate>

{{code|lang=nix|line=no|1=environment.sessionVariables.MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND = "0";}}

~~==== Wayland support ====~~

~~</translate>~~

This is useful when troubleshooting Wayland-specific issues or when certain features work better under X11.

~~{{code|lang=nix|line=no|1=environment.sessionVariables.MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND = "1";}}~~

~~Setting the variable above makes Firefox use Wayland~~ when ~~available~~.
