yes, if you enable resist fingerprinting on any Firefox build it will cap refresh rate to 60hz. Mull is not doing anything special, it’s just changing about:config options by default.
you can disable resist fingerprinting in mull and regain standard refresh rate (although you lose fingerprinting protection) just as you can enable resistFingerprinting in Firefox beta or nightly and see refresh rate cap at 60.
Ok, I’ve now had time to check this out. Android Firefox is set to strict Enhanced Tracking Protection which says offers fingerprint protection. If that is capping my refresh rate, then I can’t see it. Scrolling is smooth.
In contrast, Mull is distractingly flashy when scrolling. There is absolutely something different going on here.
Ok, that actually sounds encouraging to me. Honestly, on Android Firefox I don’t see the option for resist fingerprinting. I am using Strict Enhanced Tracking protection but that isn’t affecting refresh. What am I missing?
you need to use Firefox beta, nightly, mull, or Fennec F-Droid to access about:config and from there you can search for and enable resistFingerprinting. it’s not an option in the settings.
