Quck enable/disable WebGL on FF (lemmy.zip)

Straight to the point: Is there some way to add a button or shortcut to quickly enable/disable WebGL without having to find it in settings every time?

The only issues I'm having using FF are all related to having WebGL disabled, so I find myself reactivating it relatively often. I wish there was some kind of quick way to enable it for this session only, or for this tab only. If you have any ideas, please let me know.

Yeah that's the other solution I was thinking of.

Yes, exactly, that's what I use.

Instead of trying to solve the problem of Fingerprinting by completely disabling and then finding ways of enabling/disabling, you can solve the problem by just spoofing the fingerprinting.

Helps to present the problem first, instead of the solution you think is best but can't find an answer for. Usually the reason is that there is a better solution.

Test the implementation here: https://browserleaks.com/

Well asking the right question is also a skill, seems I'm still learning that one! Thank you
