Dear Mozilla team, I'd like to strongly advocate designing Firefox as an application that fully adapts to users' needs, rather than users having to adapt their workflow to the application. For me, this would be the most sensible approach, as the way browsers are used differs so greatly from person to person. This means, besides the visual appearance: Full optional customization of the user interface by choosing the elements and subelements, customization of hotkeys for everything, and provision of a variety of plugins (which is already given on the desktop). It would also be good if plugins could access the entire Firefox user interface so that they could modify it. This approach could also increase the popularity of Firefox, as it could fulfill (almost) all expectations of a browser by definition. https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/customizeable-toolbar-on-android/idi-p/3126 https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/more-ui-customization-for-firefox-on-android/m-p/8396/highlight/true#M3515 https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/customizable-hotkeys/idi-p/4979

The entire reason many of us switched away from other browsers on mobile was to escape this kind of awful UI. Nobody wants this: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/firefox-mobile-toolbar-redesign-needs-a-compact-mode/m-p/62031 https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1e252ov/the_new_navbar_design_on_android_nightly_is/

Having customizable colors for new received messages in Mozilla ThunderBird would be a huge plus for users.
It would allow users to easily identify new messages at a glance, making it easier to manage their inbox and stay organized.
This feature would be especially helpful for users who receive a large volume of emails or who need to quickly identify important messages.
Additionally, it would allow users to personalize their inbox experience and make it more visually appealing.
the green little dot is not enough in my humble opinion, also, if we could have the opportunity to ad a color line around the square of the message, that would be perfect, so when we have new message, we would have a colored border on the message AND also the little dot (but we would can choose the color of both of them 🙂
(You could also add the option to switch between this form of colored new message, or the old, so people that want sobriety would have the possibility to choose too)
thanks in advance,
regards

Hello,
I would love to see a possibility to hide the FOLDER ICON from the BOOKMARKS. I have around 80 FOLDERS in 4 ROWS in my BOOKMARKS, and it takes a lot of space. If I have a possibility to remove the FOLDER ICON, that would be awesome.
This way I could save a lot of space. I do no need FOLDER ICON because the name of the folder is enough to know that this is the folder. I do not feel that the folder is always needed, for now with 80 folders the FOLDER ICON is rather a problem.
Thank you!

I would like to arrange the toolbars in Firefox in the following order top to bottom:
Menu bar (top, with "File" on the far left and "X" on the far right, i.e. not centered)
Bookmarks bar
Search bar
Tab bar
This can't be done currently. The best I can do is:
Bookmarks bar
Search bar
Menu bar
Tab bar
I would like Firefox to allow the user to arrange the toolbars in any order.

It is my understanding that the reason for no Add-Ons on Firefox for iphone is in part because of restrictions placed by Apple upon iphone apps. This can be seen in how Firefox is a fork of Safari. It is my belief that if we cannot have support for Firefox Add-Ons on IOS then compatibility with Safari Extensions would be welcome as well.

I've recently made the switch to Firefox as my default browser on Android, for convenient syncing, as it's my default browser on my Linux desktop. there's one ingenious Chrome feature I miss in my mobile experience. that is the 'Contextual Search' or 'Touch to Search'. I think it can be done better in Firefox mobile. it's a multifunctional bar that pops from the bottom (within a convenient thumb-reach), that can do numerous things: run a quick search, on top of your viewed tab, of a highlighted term. display a dictionary definition of the highlighted term (incredibly useful when reading articles). or if a whole sentence is selected, it shows a full translation of it to your language. open links in a pop up preview panes (which is very time saving when browsing through a blog/magazine or doing a research, when you want to peek into a page or article to see if it's for your liking). edit, a suggestion I came up with: would love to hear your thoughts 🙂

Hey,
since 111.0 the new unified extensions button as a fixed place in the toolbar. I don't like it there and would want to remove it/move it to the overflow menu. Please make that possible again.
Also the menu needs to be easier/quicker to understand. Currently in german it is this way (used on yt as example) and you need to read way to much to understand what is going on:
At a glance all that looks fairly similar and doesn't provide the user with any benefits. I would suggest to change the current display system to something more practical. Add Categories with the applicalable permissions and just list the extensions below that with their icon and name.
Example:
Can always read and edit this website:
Blocktube
Stylus
...
Needs permission to ...:
CommentBlock
Has no permissions on this website:
AntiGameReborn
....
That way you would always know at a glance which extensions have/want/don't have permission and wouldn't need to read every text on an unsorted list.

Festive Greetings Mozilla Company and I hope that you are developing for the future. I mentioned this idea in Google Playstore as part suggestions part opinion and got a response, FROM MOZILLA, and a link to say that here so it's about the Mozilla Firefox Browser having a fully Web Developer friendly features such as : 1.Dhtml , Shtml ,Html ,Html5 2.Css , Css2 , Css3 or Css4 etc... 3.Javascript encyclopedia of libraries to add and choose from e.g. Json, React , jQuery ,Ajax or Phaser 4. Php MyAdmin with Zend Engine ( Sqllite, Sql , MySql ) to allow offline developments on the developers device as a virtual server as to allow for offline developments of the web. This would then enable Web Developers to further Develop how they can with the, Mozilla Firefox Web developer browser and once it's prototypical , I suggest that Mozilla would broadcast on all Socials so people like me can get to explore it and reciprocate communication about it here and there

The full screen option on the address bar dropdown menu is too close to the zoom out button. It is too easy to hit full screen when trying to zoom out. Very annoying, Better to move the full screen icon to its own line in the menu.

Dear Mozilla Team,
I am personally a user of a password manager under the name of "Proton Pass" and a lot of times, on login forms, both the default mozilla password manager and protonpass collide with eachother.
My idea is to have a new toggle for extensions to use which would make FireFox recognize multiple password managers and allow you to choose on login forms for it instead of them overlapping.
Example of the overlap:
How it looks without overlap:
English is not my first language so I apologise if my idea doesn't make sense. Thank you for taking your time to read.

This might be controversial. Would this be an option to build an UI that matches the Windows 11 Fluent Design principles. Like the tabs, contextmenu, textbox, checkboxes, using segoe fluent icons, etc... but as an opt-in option. So Windows 11 users could have a more or less WinUI experience with FireFox.

Problem: Sorting Extensions in the Extension Window is a bit cumbersome. Beside each extension, users have to click the three dots, click "Move Up" (or down), and then do it again to move it down another row. Solution: Extensions should automatically sort by most-clicked, with the most-clicked extensions at the top. The Extension Window Firefox

The current Firefox homepage/new tab page is quite minimal:
I think there's an opportunity to make it look better and have functionality like the other browsers do
Include stats about blocked ads/trackers etc - Since FF is privacy focused, why not display info from about:protections front and center instead of hiding it!
Wallpaper (optional please!). Maybe users could set their own or FF could randomly show some
Calendar or other widgets. Brave shows a clock (which is kinda redundant)
Weather (if user allows location access)
Some Firefox feeds/ticker. You could have "Did you know"s or good news stories about what Mozilla is doing/how they're helping the world. Could also advertise Mozilla VPN or T-shirts! Kodi (used to be XBMC) has one of these tickers.
Brave's new tab page below incl number of trackers/ads blocked, bandwidth and time saved:
Kodi RSS/news ticker:
Firefox's about:protections sadly not being shown off!

Problem: when switching between accounts from within the side menu, each time the menu closes automatically, instead of being kept open and displaying the account folders. Behavior results in user having to reopen the side menu manually again after each switch, just to go to a specific folder. Suggestion: switching between accounts should simply result in showing the folders of the switched to account, and the menu should kept open. #Thunderbird PS: mozilla ideas is missing a category for k-9 mail

I don't really like using the turn email to Grey option after being read. Is it possible to simply bold the entire header section on new emails? The way they come in now, only the contact name is bolded which makes it nearly impossible to distinguish from previously read emails. Thanks
