The one video I saw suggested running this betterfox.js file or some more elaborate ones. Is that really necessary?
Or are there just some settings that I should change?
(Already run ublock origin if that matters.)

So you don’t think it’s necessary for privacy?
For general use, no it is not necessary. But it depends on your threat model, or exactly how private you want to be.
I suggest looking at the pages on FireFox by Privacy Guides:
