Does Firefox standard fingerprint resistance include the refresh rate? Because I use Firefox over mull on Android because of the drastic difference when scrolling.
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, 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?
it's worth noting that this is the intended behaviour for privacy.resistFingerprinting. this is not exclusive to Mull.

I know it's intended, but I find it unusable. Report what you want, but disconnect from the actual refresh rate. Best of both worlds.
I wholly agree with you there, I'm just saying it's the same behavior on all browsers built on Firefox. true for desktop as well
