My two cents for FF about:config changes:

1. disable Fullscreen "XY is now Fullscreen" text. Set full-screen-api.warning.timeout to 0 2. disable Alt key: set ui.key.menuAccessKeyFocuses to false 3. don't select space after double clicking a word (together with auto highlight selection addon very nice for skimming code in browser like GH): set layout.word_select.eat_space_to_next_word to false 4. reduce forced wait when downloading a file (Download button in small FF-modal takes time to enable/activate, hard to explain, but annoying) : set security.dialog_enable_delay to 300ms 5. disable "This Connection is not Secure" Warning in (for pages like fritz.box together with XCkeepass very annoying) security.insecure_field_warning.contextual.enabled

I remembered reading something about this, and it looks like it's a security feature[0].

Yeah, it's to prevent click-hijacking (correct term?). I assassed the risk as very minimal.

> auto highlight selection addon

Can you provide a link to this addon. Couldn't find it.

I use "HighlightAll by Jerome Goudey". If you use this, you might have to tweak your addon preferences. I have set "Always enabled", "Native Highlighting" (without whitespace) and a minimum number of characters of 2. Nothing else is selected for me.
