Just adding that as I understand this, donations to the Mozilla Foundation cannot go towards Firefox, because it’s [edit: Firefox is] actually part of the Mozilla Corporation. To help with funding Firefox people can consider purchasing the Corporation’s other products (VPN/Relay/Monitor), or purchasing merch.

Not sure if they all fit entirely but:
Pro- the SSD will live longer
Con- the RAM will fill up more, especially when opening resource-heavy pages (though there’s a way to unload inactive tabs so that might not be that big of a deal, and especially if you have enough RAM to spare)
Personally I’ve been using memory-only cache for about a decade (half on HDD, half on SSD) and I don’t think I’ve noticed any adverse effects from that. (though I rarely have more than 5 tabs open at once)
Especially for sleeping issues, but also for eye strain, I recommend using a program like flux (for a computer) that allows you to set the color temperature for the day and the gradually lower it further at evening and night. This along with dimming or using different lower temperature lightbulbs in the evening/night (not being exposed to bright/florescent lights) really helped me with falling asleep.
edit: also, lowering the brightness on the monitor itself (mine is set to 27) and in the graphics card control panel (39 for me), and then manually lowering it further in the evening/night in the control panel (25>15>9>0 is how I do it)
For the more advanced, you can also mess around with the userChrome.css file. To create it open a text editor and save the file as userChrome.css in the \Chrome folder in your Firefox profile folder* (make sure to restart Firefox to apply the changes)
To enable the file, enter about:config in the address bar, then accept the warning if it appears. Search for
toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets
and double-click it to set it totrue
.*enter
about:support
in the address bar, or click on the Help menu > More Troubleshooting Information, then scroll to the Profile Folder line and click on Open Folder. Usually it’sC:\Users\~USERNAME~\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\~PROFILENAME~
*Note: the first 2 lines about tab height might not work if you don’t have the Playing/Muted text line in tabs disabled. To disable that line go to about:config, search for
browser.tabs.secondaryTextUnsupportedLocales
, and add,en
(or the relevant language that you’re using in your system) at the end of the value for it then click Enter and restart Firefox to apply the change.Here’s the userChrome I use (compiled from different sources)
