Changing the space bar behavior to not page down upon key press would be immensely helpful. I understand that not everyone would appreciate being able to disable the current space bar behavior, but to me it would finally solve a long standing issue I've had with my workflow. I often hit the space bar by accident, and wind up losing my place where I was reading online. I find it so frustrating to lose the sentence I was reading because of this, that I've taken to researching if any custom scripts exist for Firefox to disable the paging down behavior. Some do exist, but none have worked for me. There's nothing as well about:config. That is why I'm glad to have the option to suggest directly that an option to disable the "space bar = page down" behavior would be very helpful. I hope it would be a small deal to fix that would lead at last to a lot of joy and relief. ☘️ ... View more

As with vimium(https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/vimium-ff/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search) extension we can press J or K to more left or right, or in Zen browser's case, up and down. But vimium has limitation as it doesn't run on Zen's native web points like settings homepage etc. Please add a shortcut for navigation between tabs other than alt 1-9. Where we can just change adjacent tabs. ... View more

Idea Change the system of autocompletion for local urls (/ or file:///) from history-based to reality-based So if you're starting you're url with / or file:/// it will suggest real paths on top of the other results. And also make this blue finish-suggestion, which is competable with tab. Example Most file explorers (see image) or the linux terminal (just tab completion) If you type some letters, for example "Doc", it will automatically suggest "Documents/" since I have this folder on my local filesystem. Under it there could still be suggestions like "Downloads/text.docx" or from your history. Reason If you're developing a website locally, you can access it's domain more easily Local files you have visited earlier, but have deleted since then, won't be suggested anymore If you rename a folder, suggestions will change to the new file If there are still questions, feel free to ask in the comments 🙂 ...

I have activated the check spelling before sending and it turns out the dialog to do that is in the middle of the mail and I can't move it around to see context of the word, so I do not really know if it is a misspell or not. This happens in Fedora 41. Can you make it like a sidebar or at least let the user move the dialog around? ... View more

Currently, on macOS, when you reach the top of the screen with a browser opened in a full window, the top bar with three window buttons ("Close Window", "Collapse Window" and "Exit Full Screen") drops down and the browser's top bar (with tabs, URL, bookmarks, etc.) shifts. This can become very annoying very quickly. Chrome has implemented an elegant solution by moving the tabs to the left to create space for these three window buttons. Now, nothing shifts when you reach the top of the screen (of main screen with the notch), and this extra space is so small that it isn't nearly as annoying as the shifting. Please 🙂 ... View more

I usually need to have a 'private' personal bar for private use (with my bank website, my newspaper, etc) but I sometimes need to have a 'professional' bar that can be shown publicly during a presentation for instance, and for which I need different websites pinned, because I need them in this situation, and because I dont want to display the private one for privacy reasons. So having the ability to create multiple personal bars and to be able to select the one I wanna use and to switch to a other one if needed would be amazing. ... View more

Having usability issues with the Compact Tabs due to audio icons The new Compact toolbar is nice as it reduces the vertical occupied space, but I've found myself mentally paused in moments because of the change to how audio playing tabs are visualized now. As you can see, Compact mode replaces the site icon's, which are very strong visual map indicator for my brain when I glance over them. I continue to get tabs "lost" in my mind map because the icon being replaced with the audio/mute one. In "normal" toolbar config this isn't an issue, as it just says on a second line "playing" and only replaces the icon when hovering over the tab. To sum up some of the user experience issues with this for me: The site icon being replaced makes it harder to identify Tabs, i.e. which tab is which site. Hindering my flow. The audio/mute icon don't stand out as a Tab playing audio. In part due to it replacing the site icon, so I can easily confuse it as just a another website icon. Side issue: The mute and unmuted icons are hard to distinguish. So the above issue doesn't just impact audio playing tabs, but any tab I have muted. What have I done at the moment? I could use the regular toolbar instead of compact, but I prefer the smaller sizing of compact! So after some searching I stumbled on this. I used userChrome.css code I found on Reddit in a comment by user loxia_01 https://www.reddit.com/r/FirefoxCSS/comments/1gfjh5y/comment/lujfvom/ .tab-icon-stack[indicator-replaces-favicon] { grid-template-areas: "a s"; & > :is(.tab-icon-image, .tab-icon-overlay) { opacity: 1 !important; } & > .tab-icon-overlay { grid-area: s; border: none !important; background-size: 100% !important; background-color: transparent !important; fill: color-mix(in srgb, currentcolor 75%, transparent) !important; &:hover { background-color: color-mix(in srgb, currentcolor 15%, transparent) !important; fill: color-mix(in srgb, currentcolor 95%, transparent) !important; } } } My idea? Make this a native change of Firefox compact toolbar. Replacing the icon I think just sacrifices too much. Either have it as an option, or separate the icons. Either next to the site icon or left of the X close tab. Just not as the default I'd say. ... View more

Now in threaded view when a thread is collapsed, you will only see a star icon for the thread if you have stared the first mail of the thread. (See pics attached) A more intuitive approach of it might be “showing a star if you have stared any mail of the thread”. Also, if you star a collapsed thread, you are actually staring every mail of the thread. So I guess making the above change will make the UX logic more consistent.

So Mozilla already offered us Cloud account to sync our settings, bookmark, and other things. Then why not sync our notes, containers and screenshots and why not offer the ability to save screenshots in the cloud? Where we can share both notes and screenshots using public URLs. Many would pay for the file hosting. Offer 5 gb free for Screenshots & notes saving in the cloud and then ask for payment for more file space.   I think it's a WIN- WIN for everyone! ... View more

Hi team! I've been checking out your browser, and it's got a lot of potential. But there are a couple of things holding it back on Android First off, let's talk about importing and exporting. It's a pain that we can't do this on mobile. Could you please add an HTML-based import/export feature? That'd be a game-changer. Secondly, we need full extension access on Android. Why limit us to a smaller selection? Let's bring the full power of extensions to our phones. By addressing these two points, you can really elevate the Android experience and make Firefox the go-to browser for privacy-conscious mobile users. ... View more

All major platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac, Android, iOS/iPadOS) allow apps to have multiple icons, letting users choose which one should be displayed on desktop/home screen/in app menu. The icons to choose from could include legacy icons, Firefox Preview icon, recently released Halloween icons and more. Similar, platform specific ideas were proposed before (iOS, desktop), but without much success. This proposal attempts to streamline the voting by covering all platforms at once. Icon examples: ...

Hi, I like Firefox browser for its privacy and customization options and I use it regularly on my Linux based Dell laptop where it was preinstalled with operating system. Mozilla should consider making a new browser based on Java platform and Gecko rendering engine for PC, it will not compete with Firefox but it will complement it similar to the Firefox Focus browser on Android. By providing a different kind of light weight browser for PC and by choosing Java platform will make this browser portable, easier to maintain and it will also provide choice of all the languages that JVM support like Kotlin, Groovy, Scala, etc to existing developers who want to contribute to this new browser by fixing bugs and providing new features or extensions. ...
