Earlier quoted context omitted.

I find it incredibly useful to be able to toggle styles on and off in a simple GUI, especially for these two simple global styles: video { /* flip video horizontally */ transform: scaleX(-1) !important; } or /** scale videos that were originally 4:3, but were encoded as 16:9 into proper 4:3 again */ video { transform: scaleX(0.75) !important; } It's not extremely useful, but every time I toggle them on, I'm very happ…

Out of curiosity, what do you use the first flip horizontally style for?

To flip videos that have been flipped, or for watching a video in the mirror. Maybe it's 1 in 100 videos, or even less, but it's so nice to be able to just toggle a button that flips the video properly.

I don't think you need an add-on for this if you're already handy with CSS, just edit userContent.css and use a domain-specific query: @-moz-document domain(https://news.ycombinator.com) {...}

I would do this so much more if it didn't require a restart of Firefox to take effect. As it is, I also use Stylus.

Did not know about that feature, I am impressed Mozilla has not blocked it in favor of some reason.
