I found three, Betterfox, arkenfox, & Narsil.

I been using Betterfox for the last week. I been liking it because Betterfox doesn't break sites. Back in the day, I tried arkenfox. But it break some sites I go to. Narsil is a fork of arkenfox.

I don’t think it’s a good idea to take some huge collection of prefs and just apply them blindly.

Betterfox, arkenfox, & Narsil tells you about the prefs and what they do. But I do get your point.

Right, and that's fine. The one good thing about these "collections" is when they describe what the pref does (I mean, so does official source typically). But that matters only as long as the audience actually reads those descriptions. But then if you just pick the ones you actually care about (which you should totally do) it becomes irrelevant from which "collection" you found about it from.
