Auto Fullscreen

Open all Firefox windows in full screen mode
What is Auto Fullscreen?
"Auto Fullscreen" is a Firefox add-on that ensures all browser windows open in fullscreen mode, enhancing your browsing experience by keeping every window maximized. This plugin is a fork of the original Auto Fullscreen by tazeat, which only affects the initial window. Ideal for users who prefer to open links in separate windows, it provides a seamless transition into fullscreen. Users wishing to access bookmarks while in fullscreen can follow specific instructions at their own risk.
