About Firefox Clock widget from Ukraine

mxxmus — Tue, 23 Jun 2026 07:30:11 GMT

Hi community,
Hi Firefox developers,

Why does Firefox love Moscow so much?

What do I mean?
I'm using the Ukrainian localization of Firefox. I have just updated to the latest version, and what do I see?
Moscow is listed first in the Clock widget.
Have you heard of Kyiv? It's the capital of Ukraine, not Moscow.
Are you aware of the Russian-Ukrainian war?
Are you aware of basic ethics?
Why is Moscow being prioritized for Ukrainian users?

My location is not in Ukraine, but it's not moscow either. I'm using a remote server located in Germany.
However, Firefox is using the Ukrainian localization, which makes moscow being prioritized even more questionable.
Nevertheless, moscow was shown first in the Clock widget, followed by Berlin and other cities.
