Cool, thanks.
Interesting that it happens so quickly. I was not expecting that.
Isn't it just changing some flags, toggling some options, debranding and disable basic telemetry? I honestly don't know, last time I checked was a long time ago.

Good to know, I was not aware there was a UI for those things.
Yes. If you take a look at their Codeberg, you'll see it's basically just a custom build script and a bunch of patches, so whenever a new version of Firefox rolls around, they just have to run their own build (and fix any patches in case they break) and they're off to the races.
