How to make custom appearance settings apply to all users? (slrpnk.net)

I'm setting up a computer with linux mint debian editon, and the computer is going to be used by a lot of people who sign in via AD. I have custom display settings (background, pinned applications, theme, custom menu icon) that I would like to apply to all users, but right now they only show up when I log into the account that I set it up on.

Also, is there a way to get a custom firefox esr config to apply to all users as well? I want to remove pocket and make duckduckgo the default browser.

Many thanks.

For Firefox specifically, look into creating a policies.json file in /usr/lib/firefox-esr/distribution/ - this will apply your settings (like removing pocket and changing the default search) to all users systemwide without needing to mess with individual profiles.
