Hey Firefox friends! 👋

We’re trying something new and would love your help.

Features like tab groups, vertical tabs, profiles, new tab wallpapers, PWAs, and taskbar pinning weren’t just ideas – they were direct responses to what you told us you wanted. Your input has helped shape where Firefox is today, and we’re proud of what we’ve built together. We’re listening, we’ve been listening, and we’re excited to keep building a better browser together.

Starting now, we’re trying something new.

A series of quick check-ins  to hear where you’re at, what’s on your mind, and what you really want from Firefox. These surveys will help shape Firefox features and give you more direct ways to connect with the people building your favorite browser.

Just honest questions, and space for honest answers.

Help guide our next AMA with the Firefox team

We're thinking about how we engage with this community, and we’re planning a community AMA (Ask Me Anything) with Firefox product managers.

Let’s start with questions to help us plan the AMA, and a fun one at the end.

What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to ask the Firefox team?

Drop it in the comments! It might get answered during our upcoming AMA.

Which topics should we cover during the AMA?

(Some suggestions, or you can add your own below)

• New features (and why we pick them)
  
  
• Other: [tell us]

Which animal best represents your Firefox browsing style?

• 🐆 Cheetah – lightning fast
  
  
• 🦉 Owl – wise and methodical
  
  
• 🐿️ Squirrel – a total tab-hoarder
  
  
• 🐬 Dolphin – curious and always exploring
  
  
• 🧠 Other (tell us below!)
  
  

Thanks for being part of the Firefox journey 💜

Sadly, I agree. I'm never daring to using Firefox again until they stop wanting a license for all my data I enter into the browser and don't clarify in the terms of service that they're not selling my data. From what I could tell, Brave doesn't do anything like this, so the choice is sadly pretty clear for now. Extra blog posts to explain don't help, it needs to be addressed and removed or explained in the terms so that it is binding.

[anishkfl]

I would say I am an owl and a dolphin, which often leads me to finding tweaks for Firefox that I feel the browser should natively have.

NB.💯 is more important to me as user.

Here's a table:

Problem/Feature Area What I Experience or Want

Performance	Firefox loads slowly, uses a lot of RAM and CPU, and feels less responsive than Chrome. Sometimes, tabs freeze or the browser slows down if I leave it open for a while. This is my biggest gripe - the app hogs so much ram (I have 32GB on my machine and at times FF is eating about 70 percent of it). I've had to get an add-on that puts the idle tabs to sleep after some time, in order to address this. 💯
Stability	I notice frequent crashes—especially after updates—and sometimes encounter packaging problems on Linux versions like Snap or Flatpak.
Tab Management	I really want better tab management and smarter ways to organize lots of tabs.
Legacy Features	I miss features like “Do Not Track” and would love to see tab groups brought back.
Extensions/Sync	Syncing my add-ons, bookmarks, and settings across devices doesn’t always work reliably, and the limited extension support on mobile is frustrating.
New Tab Customization	I’d like to customize my new tab page more—add more top sites, rearrange them, or set a custom wallpaper/background. Mozilla should invest in some homemade themes that users can modify to change the look and feel of the browser.💯
Built-in Tools	I wish Firefox came with some tools built-in, like a stronger native ad blocker, or an advanced “Page Info” panel to manage media and site data.
Download Management	Managing large downloads would be easier if I could pause and resume downloads more conveniently from the browser.
Bookmarks	Saving and organizing bookmarks would be a lot better if I could search for bookmark folders directly or see more info when saving.
Flow area	There is this weird behaviour at a certain aspect ratio of resizing Firefox, I can drag the window around by click-hold-drag method - the overflow area becomes unusable with icons from the toolbar expanding and taking all that space even though I had given ample flex space under customization. This needs looking into and fixing. 💯
UI	I've seen some recs about how window splitting as is in Zen would be nice, and I'm honestly surprised how it isn't a feature here already.  Would be great to have this with good support to resize and switch between the split windows with shortcuts. 💯
Account Recovery	I had associated my work account email to a Firefox account. Backup codes were on the device and BSOD corrupted the SSD, it is wild to me that Firefox can't or won't let me back into my account via the email i used to sign up (MFA device was with Microsoft and crazily enough I didn't have access to that device as well). This needs to be changed - you guys can video call me to vet my identity.

Finally - PLEASE GET RID OF YOUR LEADERSHIP, THEY ARE RUINING FIREFOX. ALL THIS AI STUFF WHILST REMOVING FAN FAVOURITES LIKE POCKET AND FAKESPOT ERODED A LOT OF TRUST WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, NOT TO MENTION THE ADS POLICY DEBACLE. 

Not trying to scream here - just for emphasis. I honestly believe this is one of the best things to exist.

Firefox has always been my browser and despite the recent messiness, I will stick with it, so please don't let the community down.

Which topics should we cover during the AMA?

• One thing my friends tell me they find annoying about Firefox is how dragging tabs works, since they come from Chrome and the behavior there is very different, that's one thing.
• On the other hand, I would like to see a native split screen. The extension works well, but it breaks on some sites.
• Improvements to the spell checker, making it more “intelligent” in a way. I feel that the way it works is too archaic and quite limited for today's standards and needs.
• Add icons to the application menu, since you have to read what you're going to click on, and I feel that this affects the UX of the menu.
• Improvements to the configuration interface, I feel that it lags behind other browsers.
• Also, improvements to the Screen Capture feature
  1. Improve the permissions interface because seriously, the UX is at a bad/acceptable level, it just works and that's it.
  2. And this also comes with adding audio capture support. Last time (I don't remember if it was on MDN or in a forum), the reasons they gave for not implementing it seemed like excuses to me. They talked about how it was a violation of user privacy and how this was a risk, But that's why there are UX mechanisms to let the user understand what they are going to share. A valuable feature is lost in Firefox because of that way of thinking.

Which animal best represents your Firefox browsing style?

I'm both a cheetah and an owl.

[eduardom]

Another complaint I forgot to mention.

My friends who have recently switched to Firefox complain about how the history works. They tell me that it works more like “The last time you visited a page” and does not keep the dates and times when that page was visited.

For example, if I visit the site example.com on 2025/01/01, then visit it again on 2025/03/21, and then visit it again today. In Chrome, according to them, it saves the three times they visited that page. I don't know if this is true because, at least in Edge, it works practically the same as Firefox (with a better interface tho), but it would be great if the history worked this way.

[Shriradhakrishn]

With AI companions now commonplace in other browsers like Edge’s Copilot or Opera’s Aria, would the Firefox team consider adding an optional AI sidebar to Firefox for Android? This could support on-page summarization, smart querying, or task automation—all while keeping Firefox’s core promise of privacy and user control intact.  

How might such an AI feature be designed to respect user data, remain toggleable, and still provide powerful enhancements that help Firefox stay competitive against emerging AI browsers like Comet or OpenAI's upcoming offering?

Regards 

[pondlake]

Firefox Android:

• The address bar has become cluttered with buttons THAT SHOULDN'T BE THERE: "home" (useless), "translate" (won't go away no matter the setting), and now "share" (for real!?), "reading mode"; remove them from there, I can barely see the first few letters of the address! Also way too much spacing around them
• I always have to manually close the previous tab when tapping on a link, let us reuse them instead, you may call us owls or wharever, but we don't like having zillions of tabs open to be closed automatically after x time
• Improve speed, it's currently the slowest browser out there
• Allow more customization (like about:config) and extensions, and for ex. to be able to remove the useless buttons from the address bar

[gnarendran142]

I use chrome alongside firefox, and having to remember different shortcuts (e.g. firefox Alt+1 vs chrome Ctrl+1, to switch to Tab 1) is hard. If all shortcuts could be made configurable, the user could make the shortcuts uniform and more easily switch between browsers.

[gnarendran142]

Also, extensions like vimium help to some extent, but they don't work on restricted pages. Hence the request to make Alt+1 etc. configurable.

[duxzitta]

I want Firefox to add a smart sidebar that is AI agnostic by design.

Let me connect any AI I want, whether it is an open source LLaMA running locally or a closed API like OpenAI, by just plugging in an endpoint and API key. Then let that AI analyze whatever page I am on.

It could highlight contracts, summarize articles, compare prices, or cross check code. This gives users control to pick their own AI instead of being locked into a walled garden like Microsoft Edge with Copilot.

Mozilla could default to an open source model for privacy, but keep it fully pluggable. That is the kind of open web we still need.

[OneDayLeft]

I have been using Firefox since the time version 3 was about to be released. Many things have changed since then.
but I always missing the OLD UI design-ideology, the xul-runner stuff( or maybe I called it wrong); Something that allows you to achieve a high degree of customization, with extensions or without; MV stuff sucks, but it would take over, As users, we're too stupid, too naive, or too vulnerable to stop it — which makes it even more important that we build tech safeguards to protect ourselves. They're right — since that's how everyone was taught.

So maybe I’m just complaining. After all, with the rise of AIGC, I increasingly feel — as a pessimist — that the very existence of the internet itself is on shaky ground. So, what’s next for the browser? I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on it.

[vsubhash]

How about

• not aping Chrome?
• not disabling add-ons without warning (like you did recently with an update)? Allow us to take backup data and settings.
• stop wasting money on 'fake news' and firefox online tracking accounts and start focusing on just the browser
• bring back support for RSS
• stop relying on telemetry data and removing useful features such as 'reload all tabs'
  • advanced users and people who care about privacy turn off telemetry reporting
• not making 'about:config' settings changes usable only for 'corporate users' through policies.json
• not make the whole window close when the last tab is closed
• make spying-like features such as geolocation, microphone, webcam disabled by default
• make annoying features such as website notifications disabled by default
• not force a restart of the browser when history/cookies settings are changed and instead wait till the browser is restarted by the user
• not make "clear history" option set to last session instead of all time.
• clear all cookies when the browser session ends
• expose only a limited system features such as fonts to limit browser fingerprinting
• stop the updates background service instead use Seamonkey like update availability notifications
• stop verifying add-ons first and then show the browser. Instead, show the browser first and then verify the add-ons.
• not make Google services such as search and safebrowsing on by default. Make them optional for those who care to share.
• make sure Rumble videos do not stall after a few seconds. They play on Chrome without any problem.
• bring back built-in support for opensearch, user js and user css (chrome directory)

That's all for now.

[zed1]

This is the way

[turtle0]

Long time firefox user for 8-9 years. I would really like to have better profile switcher/manager and more important different icons in taskbar for different profiles with some icons/color to distinguish, similar to chromium. Also being able to manage history bookmarks etc in the same window instead of opening small new window. I would really like to see these feature. I know Profile thing is still in works but it is still very bare-bones.

[skappers]

Since search engine based revenue is a concern, how about making a search engine that users can pay you a subscription for? Or teaming up with Kagi to provide it?

[kubrick]

Hi!

I really love firefox and and I am concerned about its future. I really really want an option to just pay for it. Not to Mozilla Foundation and its charity work, but Mozilla Corporation proper, to fund Firefox development work.

I feel like we should be able to face a future without Google funding with serenity.

Love,

F.

[Hugsun]

It's disappointing to see so many people ask for split screen in the browser. A WM/DE already does that. That feature seems like bloat to me and my vote goes against it.

I'm definitely a squirrel and would like to be a cheetah. I'm held back by the fact that Vimium is held back by the extension API, e.g. it doesn't work in a new tab , which regularly destroys the flow. I vote for any solution to that issue. Native vim bindings perhaps? 

I usually have ~10 windows open (manageable with a TWM) with ~10-30 tabs each. I regularly encounter what seem to be memory leaks or at least memory squandering. I've seen Firefox use >60 GB of RAM. about:memory is very helpful and the task manager as well. Sometimes it's just the Firefox entry in Firefox's task manager that takes many tens of GB which is hard to fix without restarting.

I love the browser, especially after seeing Google's rent seeking with manifest v3. I liked the AI sidebar and am always glad to see new features pop up, whether I use them or not. Keep up the good work! 

[frouge]

Since years ago I wish that Firefox has a great way to read RSS. 
I'd love to be able to add a RSS like a bookmark, like Firefox did in the past, but I want Firefox to manage the unread post count for me. So next to the bookmark name I'd be able to see how many new post there are, and folders could also indicate how many new posts there are. 

I'd really love to have that in Firefox!

[deejayy]

What I'm really missing from every browser is the capability to do regex search in content. Would be awesome.

[tilwiti]

Perl or other flavor? 

[deejayy]

I guess the most straightforward would be the one used in JS. I'm perfectly okay with that.

[utab78702]

I'm just some guy who is a devout user of Firefox. I worry about the future in light of Google's troubles and want you to address a funding model similar to Thunderbird where users are able to pay you an amount to support ongoing development etc.

[AndrewSuares]

Mozilla is rich. That's the last thing you need to worry about. They get millions from Google. 

[tilwiti]

There were already signs that this might change 

[FrostyIremel]

I'm an Owl. I think all European users will be grateful for having integrated tracking consent management advertised to websites via HTTP header. We don't need cookie banners, we don't need stuff like GTM, we need protocol-based tracking functionality that users can easily disable. It is unlikely that Google or Apple will start moving in that direction first, but a bold move by independent browser could inspire politicians to make it standard.

[tilwiti]

Some questions remain unanswered due to the organization's obvious structural and management aspects.

However, I hope it will be possible to donate specifically to the browser and its team.

[tilwiti]

It might seem strange for someone who uses a lot of filters, but I'd actually like to see Mozilla ads in the wild. You probably develop this with Anonym.

The aspect that bothers me the most is information control and being pursued by irrelevant ads based on fleeting Dolphin interests that I might search for intensely in a moment of impulse.

If you search for vacuum cleaners or iPhone 7 cases out of procrastination or nostalgia, you'll end up with many types of vacuum cleaners and cases you no longer need. However, the algorithm will decide that you're a true fan of vacuum cleaners.

If there's a settings panel where I can adjust what I see and it works, then we'll consider that a good compromise in this brave new world.

I think a certain percentage of people would donate-like "buy" a browser. I might get one out of mischief, LOL.

Orion by Kagi is an example of how they manage to do this.

It's kind of the opposite of your model, but maybe it could be adapted. Be careful, though; I expect to see headlines like "Firefox is now paid."

I don't hear much about Anonym or what's going on there in general. As I recall, the website hasn't been updated in some places, but I see that you are actively working on updating it after moving to firefox.com.

I'm curious about fighting the dominant advertising networks in the world. Perhaps Google will lose some ground in another court case, creating more free space.

[Dhyan]

Hello, 

I'm loving the progress Firefox has made over the past couple months.

Some features I'd like to be implemented:

- Make an rss feed link for Firefox's new tab articles. Some of them are quite interesting to read but are inaccessible if I'm using a custom site as a new tab.

- More customization for FF Android similar to Iceraven: custom new tab page/addon, choice in what icons show up in the address bar, Amoled or wallpaper based theming, etc.

Thanks,

A Firefox user

[Mister_Pruski]

To start with: I'd describe my browsing style more like that one of an🦉 Owl – wise and methodical.

And in that context, there are a couple of things that I'd like to see improved in Firefox providing that "next gen" browsing experience. To start with:

[ User Interface ]

Although we have great extensions that provide us with the possiblity to use dark theme, including forcing a black background, I've seen multiple competing browsers providing this functionality either within the advanced settings ("about:config"), advanced settings within the menu, and some pretty straight forward within the menu

[ Performance / Settings ]

It would be great to have a more elaborate performance/optimization setting, that goes a bit further than only "optimized" "standard". I'd add an option for the normal user modes like: "maximum energy efficiency", "battery saver", "normal", "performant", "max boost". That would reflect something like: limited to 1/8 of the available cores or even single core, only CPU/GPU/NPU acceleration but only if this is not too taxing, classic battery saving profile, normal, performant (boosting the priority within OS limits), "max boost" means the browser never sleeps and uses every single speed optimization technique possible and not thinking once about "energy saving". It would be nice to have 3 modes in menu and  the rest to be set in about:config or some kind of advanced menu.

rationale: being that guy that travels a lot, using both Apple, Linux and Windows on several processor architectures, there are times where I really don't bother with this. But travel means sometimes unpredictable scenarios and not always the ability to charge or plug your device. In such cases I throttle the AMD 8840u/6850u, Intel i9, Apple M3 or whatever I have at hand using the OS capabilities, but it would be nice to have a browser that makes life easier. To give you an example of my mileage. Let's take the older HP Elitebook 845 with the AMD 6850u as an example: without optimization, Linux Kernel 6.4.0, 32GB RAM, and only Browser + standard Linux, battery health @ 80%: about 5hrs with normal profile, 6.5hrs with no tinkering and battery saving, with limiting processor and firefox with specific tweaks: 8 hours 45 minutes. To me, that at times is a life safer

[ Android / iOS ]

Improved UI and customizations regarding DPI settings, (enforcing) specific fonts (or font groups) as well as sizes including improved immersive reading functionality would be appreciated by those with some visual challenges, or ... age 😎

(Forced) Safe Page as App (Android specific): Samsung Browser and most other browsers let us safe pages to the home screen, which is basically that link. Some pages can be safed as "apps" on the app screen. However, Chrome has some kind of feature that provides the possibility to even safe unsupported pages as an "app" on the App Page. A very useful feature if one is tight on storage or doesn't want to install a 700mb "App" for a news app, when the slimed down "Internet App", which is basically a wrapper, would be only something like somewhere between 2 and 20mb. Depending on which solution is used.

[ Security ]

We're living in strange times, one of the unique selling points (to me) for Firefox was (in the past) both its security profile and the "no frills or ads" approach. Security is an increasing topic, which also resonates in a lot of services we (supposed) to use online. Here are some things I'd like to see:

- AI Cloud Kill Switch: for those that really don't want to block all AI data being processed in the cloud, but would (in the future) like to use LOCAL (NPU/GPU enabled) AI ehancements

- All AI Kill Switch: be that browser that is about freedom of choice, if people really don't want to use AI, then don't force it on them. Even more: disable any NPU calls, use alternative routines, remove even menu items referring to AI when this kill-switch is enabled. Make AI an experience of a lifetime for those that can appreciate it, and don't force it on those that don't want it.

- "Personal Cloud" and "Local Sync": look, it's nice to sync your bookmarks and history in the cloud. But trust is declining, and some don't want to use Microsoft, Google, but don't even Mozilla Cloud for that matter when it comes to Syncing their data in the cloud. So, perhaps an idea to include the possibility, to synchronise bookmarks and Firefox data using a local folder, similar to Joplin, so one can place that folder either on their local file storage or their preferred NAS solution or (personal) cloud. Make this a feature supported on all platforms, from iOS/Android, Apple, Windows up to Unix and Linux and we've another selling point regarding security for Firefox 😀. Don't forget to include some encryption options, e.g. "generated keyfile" (e.g. certificate?) or "use your own FIDO2/Oauth" and/or classical "Password". Firefox was always about choices.

[ Overall UI ]

Try to utilize Operating and Platform specific implementations for smooth scrolling. One of the things I noted is that this varies a lot (depending on the OS/Platform), but which is not always the case with the competition. So, perhaps we can have a look at this particular problem to unify the overall user experience as being rock solid and similar regardless the OS one uses.

Personally, I would say that both the Performance profiles as well as the Security (to me) would me #1, AI Kill Switch would be a solid #2, and the rest #3 when it comes to priorities.

[h3nC34CC3p74813]

I am an Owl and Dolphin!

I love vertical tabs ad I would like to see an feature where you could see where the tabs I have opened came from.  I’d really like to see a tree graph that shows the origin and navigation path of each tab. It would be nice to collapse a branch of tabs when I' done reading!

[poudlardeau]

Dolphin here. I will give you some feedbacks to begin with.

First, grouping tabs works really well, so shout out to the team for the work. Also, I actually enjoy using the "AI chats" button on the vertical bar, as I can split screen with an existing tab. 

What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to ask the Firefox team?

• Will there ever be a hardware device made by Mozilla ?

Which topics should we cover during the AMA?

•  It is possible to add a split screens feature similarly to Zen browser ?
• When clicking a link that is inside my "AI chat" tab, could you make it to open by default as a new tab in the browser (right now it loads in the AI chat tab and removes my current AI conversation)

• Can you open source the code of Pocket ? I'm sure plenty of users would love to self-host it

My next requests are all about Firefox app on iOS :

• Will there be Firefox extensions on iOS anytime soon ? 
• Now that European users of iOS can use browsers relying on their own engine (bye WebKit), do you plan to do something in that way ? Did you start a mobile browser engine project for iOS ?
• Can you add an "install webapp" feature on Firefox iOS ? It has only been available on chrome and safari, so far

[Ivanenko]

Hello!

Thanks for all the hard work on Firefox! I'm an Owl and a Cheetah.

I'm sure you've heard of the Zen Browser. Would it be possible to collaborate with the maintainers of that project? I hope such a collaboration would allow them to focus on the UI, and you to focus on the engine (performance and resource usage).

As a next step, I’d suggest collaborating with other popular open-source forks of Firefox. I believe the fragmentation of the Firefox community is hurting the project too much.

[alxs]

Hi Guys! Thanks for all your hard work! Love the Firefox look and feel, but I have few remarks:

0. Would be great to have all browser appearance customization (tabs, views, fonts, sizes, themes, colors, etc.etc.) options in 1 Settings tab (see my attached image). Otherwise, everything is scattered across different popup windows, menus, hidden buttons, etc. Even when you wasted 10 min to find it, after 1 hour, you already forgot where it was.

1. I would love to see higher level of customization, and even more - like in Edge browser. Where you can easily manage/show/hide/toggle/etc. almost anything in the screen.

2. I am fond of minimalism and compact design. I think, Firefox would benefit from customization options to top-bar and tabs, where I could:

• change (reduce) the size of tabs (width,height)
• reduce the size (height) of search bar.
• Be able to optionally hide "address/search bar", when I am already on the website. Hovering on a tab, should show full URL with query params. Then, to have some hotkey, which pops up "search/input" similar to Spotlight on MacOS
• Tabs groups redesigns. IMHO, they are ugly and useless. Groups could be designed more like compact "folder"
• Better/Different scroll bar design
• Theme colors picker

3. Obviously, better performance. Tested opening different sites and group of sites vs Edge,Chrome on Windows 11. Firefox usually consumes ~20-30% more memory.

4. Tabs/Search are taking too much of a vertical space. Especially tabs - IMHO their vertical padding could be reduced (configured via tabs appearance settings?)

5. Reader view:

• more fonts options
• line/section focus feature, where you can jump up/down with keyboard arrow buttons. I like the section highlight, when using "Read Aloud" feature
• Explain word/Dictionary feature, initiated by double-click (or... "configure"?), where I can read word meaning (not translation), and save this word to some list

6. Single-line (row) top-bar. Currently, tabs and address bar sit on separate rows. Why we need to waste vertical spacing for address bar. Maybe it's possible to combine into 1?

[Indogermane]

Hey Firefox team!

Thanks for checking in with the community — love this initiative!

One thing I’ve really been hoping for is a complete Mozilla bundle that includes Firefox Relay, Mozilla VPN, and a password manager. Right now, these are great individual products, but combining them into one integrated privacy-focused ecosystem would be super convenient for users.

As someone based in Germany, I haven’t seen such a package offered here — and I think it would be a smart move not only for user experience but also as a sustainable way for Mozilla to generate more revenue while staying true to its values.

Looking forward to what’s coming next!
🦉 Owl – wise and methodical

[miellaby]

FF should innovate by bringing actual new ideas. For example, pressing back on a newly opened tab should bring back the user on the original tab. My elderly parents doesn't notice tab opening and for these kind of users, making a more user friendly 'go back' button should work as expected 

[ozmax]

Nested tabs please

[srvmr]

I'm a Squirrel, Cheetah and a Owl.

I use multiple windows each having a dedicated context. These windows may live for a year - as long as the task draggs itself.

Firefox is awesome. Recently I also started using it as my password manager on mobile devices.

I just want one feature on desktop which would be awesome; But is fairly clunky to implement as an extension due to the requirements.

Currently one can press 'Ctrl+L', insert %\w* for searching tabs.

A killer feature for me would be:

Hitting Spacebar twice and open up a window local buffer menu, showing tabs in a list with respecting numbers to refer to, so I can memoize these within a session.

Exactly like vim does it with something like this (from memory): `:nnoremap <SPC><SPC> :ls<CR>:b `. I can quickly filter this list by typing words.

With the current implementation, the initial shown list always prompts tabs I don't have in the window open, cuts it after 9 entries and the filtering isn't very reliable.

It would be much nicer beeing able to refer to tabs with: tab-number, url, html-title, html-description.

Cheers.

[MFKDGAF]

Why does it take so long to approve extension updates?

A good example of this is Bitwarden. After Bitwarden releases an extension update it usually takes Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge 1-2 days to approve where as it takes Mozilla Firefox 1-2 weeks to approve.

Could the approval process be changed to like what Apple uses for iOS? The initial submission of an extension goes under extreme scrutiny but after the original submission which would be the ongoing/recurring up dates would have a quicker approval process.

[zukas]

Honestly, the main thing needed right now is performance. Aside from that, maybe look into workspaces like zen and floorp have.  For mobile, preforance work is definitely needed. It would also be nice to have an easy way to theme the browser, more than just light/dark mode.

[thoroughburro]

What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to ask the Firefox team?

To what degree do you feel Firefox telemetry is used to dispassionately analyse the needs of users versus to data mine to justifications for existing decisions?

Which topics should we cover during the AMA?

The loss of trust in Firefox’s mission. Mozilla selling data to advertisers. Honest opinions on the relationship with Google.

Which animal best represents your Firefox browsing style?

I’m over 40. C’mon, this is super cringe.
