In Firefox Android, there are 2 options: "Open link in normal tab" "Open link in private tab". I prefer to use normal tabs but sometimes I accidentally click the wrong option and open a private tab instead. That makes me search for the missing tab under the normal tabs but it is actually under private tabs. When I surf, usually privacy is of no concern to me. It is an inconvenience for me. Please add an option for a default tab type: Always open links in a normal tab Always open links in a private tab ... View more

Hey you fantastic bunch of wonderful people!  I would find that if when I close the FireFox app in iOS all cookies are deleted, just as FF does on Windows. I don't see that as a current option in the iOS version of FF. Thanks! J ... View more

The primary "resting" tab in my browser is in the middle of the tabs I keep open. When I open a new tab either via a Ctrl+... or any means other than right clicking a link, the new tab opens at the far right of the list of tabs. When I close that tab, it switches to the one to its left, which is the new far right. Likewise, when I close a tab that is NOT on the far right (such as resulting from a right clidk), it switches to the one on its right. I would like an option such that closing a tab would do the same thing as Ctrl+Tab does, i.e. switch to the tab previously used, which is usually my primary "resting" tab, or the one in which I right-clicked a link (which is usually to the left, but if there are more tabs to the right, it goes to the right instead). For example case 1: currently on tab 15 of 30, open LastPass launch on tab 31, close tab 31, go back to tab 15 instead of tab 30 as is the current (non-changeable) result. For example case 2: currently on tab 15 of 30, open new tab 31 (for that matter, why can't it be new tab 16 of 31 instead?), see Pocket links, right click Pocket link to view later in tab 32, back to 31, right click another in 33, etc. Then do search/link in tab 31 erasing new tab, close that tab, go back to most recent Pocket tab which is now 31, view that one, repeat until first Pocket tab is now 31, close that and go back to 15, the last open tab before 31, rather than 30. ...

DRM is very annoying and problematic at times. A settings option to simply ignore DRM instead of attempting to comply, while lying to the context that it is in fact managing digital rights, would make interacting with internet media in Firefox significantly less irritating. ... View more

Halleo, Früher ist beim Lesen der Mails mit der "N"-Taste der Focus von einer ungelesenen Mail zur nächsten gesprungen, dabei ist der Cursor in den Ordnern auch sichtbar weiter gesprungen. Seit dem letzten Update springt der Cursor links in den Ordnern nicht mehr weiter - zumindest sieht man das nicht, da der Cursor in den Ordnern außerhalb des Anzeige-Bereiches ist. Bitte macht das so, daß man wieder sieht, in welchem Ordner man gerade eine Nachricht liest.  Wie kann man standardmäßig in der Vorschau der Mail unten rechts den Info-Bereich ausblenden? Derzeit muß ich immer noch auf das i im Kreis klicken, damit nicht so viele Zeilen Header zu sehen sind. Schön wäre es, wenn man das einstellen kann, daß das immer nur 1 Titelzeile (Absender/Datum oder so) ist. Vielen Dank Björn Hello, Previously, when reading emails with the "N" key, the focus would jump from one unread email to the next, and the cursor would also visibly jump further in the folders. Since the last update, the cursor on the left no longer jumps forward in the folders - at least you can't see it because the cursor in the folders is outside the display area. Please do this so that you can see in which folder you are currently reading a message. How can you hide the info area at the bottom right of the email preview by default? Currently I still have to click on the i in the circle so that not so many rows of headers are visible. It would be nice if you could set it so that there was only 1 title line (sender/date or something like that). Thank you Bjorn ... View more

I will often have passwords for cites the have "(no username)". Didn't really understand this til today. When I tried to add the username I used for a frequented cite to the newest existing password that had (no username) and Firefox told me that username was already in use. There seems to be a bug that when updating passwords Firefox will not understand the extended cite will be connected to the main, maybe because the link will have an extra few letters. When adding the password Firefox will add it under (no username) for the main cite. Having a merge of the latest password for major cite and the Username for that cite will help not going individually each cite updating the password of a username or deleting whole passwords to re-add them. ...

As we all (might) know, YT has been in a war against ad-blockers. I just learned the long and difficult way, that they are not, not really. It might be a part of it, but not as a be-all-and-end-all. It turns out that they are actually in a war against any non-Chrome browser users. (Typical Google monopoly.) Ad blocker plug-ins are something of a necessity nowadays, as ads are more of a nuisance than any form of information. All browsers have them, and most people use them, knowingly or not. Well, I found a way to beat them at their own game. You see, there is undeniable (and quite obvious) code in Google-owned websites. They deliberately designed their pages to inject a 5-second pause before loading and/or playing video, that identifies the browser you use and if it's using a Firefox identifier (as named in the code) the pause executes, ads blow up, and messages about disabling add-ons slam you. So what I'd done is change the identifier using a plug-in called "User-Agent Switcher" and suddenly all websites suddenly work flawlessly. I set it to Mac OS X/Safari 17, and everything works as it should. This told me 2 things: 1) It's not ad-blockers they're against, its OTHER browsers, and 2) that other browser is actually Firefox. My idea is either add in a User-Agent string changer, OR a filter of some kind that if a website is owned by Google, that it reports another User-Agent string altogether, completely automatically. ...

Firefox has a terrible history feature. When I want to look back at every site I visited on a particular day, or look at a site and see every time I visited, there's no way to do so, unlike literally every single other web browser. It would take very little effort to fix this, just give us an option to sort our history by each discrete visit, instead of the last time we visit a page. ... View more

Hi, There is a feature to clear all the cookies from Firefox when all instances/windows are closed. Firefox also offers the ability to exclude domains from this feature. However, this list of excluded domains is NOT synchronised via Firefox Sync. ... View more

I'd like to be able to display the "Help" category from the hamburger menu as a toolbar icon, the same way as developer tools ("More tools" in the hamburger menu) and settings can. Icon could be something as simple as a question mark. This way I'd have my most used features in the toolbar itself and wouldn't need to go through the hamburger menu every time. ... View more

Hoping to see someday Firefox will support word splitting or word segmentation for Chinese and Japanese. It is extremely useful in situations like double click to select, and Ctrl+Backspace (Option+Backspace) to delete. 希望 Firefox 能够支持中文及日文的分词。在双击选择、Ctrl+Backspace (Option+Backspace) 删除的时候会非常有用。 いつか Firefox が中国語と日本語の単語分割をサポートしてくれることを期待しています。ダブルクリックして選択、Ctrl+Backspace (Option+Backspace) で削除する場合に非常に便利です。 ...

Dear Mozilla Team, I am writing to suggest an idea for Firefox. I think it would be great if Firefox had an upload menu similar to the one in Opera. The menu would allow users to select the last 3 or 4 downloaded items, the text/file from the clipboard, or something else from the computer. This would make it easier for users to upload files and content to websites. I saw this article from 3 years ago but nothing happened: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1704632. Thank you for your time and consideration.   ... View more

I use Firefox with MACs and it's really awesome. I notice that the configurations for my containers and their settings is shared via my Firefox account, which is not a big deal, but results in an awkward situation for me. I would like to set an "Always open in this container" for a certain site, but only on this particular device. To make this concrete, the situation is that I would like, on my work laptop, to always open Google Meet and associated pages in my work account container; but I would like that setting not to propagate to my other devices like my personal computer, where I also use Google Meet for personal calls. ...

It could be interesting for those who have multiple Address Books and need a way to distinguish them at a glance, or those who want to organize their books, or even those who simply want to customize and want different esthetics to their Address Books! I would only suggest some small things, nothing too fancy... Perhaps the possibility of having different preset icons, related for example to work (a suitcase?) or family/friends (a group of persons, maybe?) ... Those icons would be in the same style as those used throughout Thunderbird. Maybe also a possibility to color the name of an Address Book, like how tags color the name and variables of an email in list view... I don't expect this to be given much priority: I am very aware that there's still a lot of work going on Sync and other features, I can see the size of the release notes, I fully realize there's truly other things way more important than what I propose and I know that time and resources are at somewhat of a premium. Maybe someday, who knows... ... View more

I really like the ability of creating multiple Address Books based on the user's needs. In my case, and I believe it isn't too uncommon, I've created an Address Book with contacts that I will rarely, if ever, contact or from whom I would be contacted, but that I keep just in case. I propose that we be allowed to Hide user generated Address Books. There's many ways it could be done: as a check-mark in the pop-up to edit an Address Book (who would gain another purpose other than just editing its name), or a right-click / three-dots contextual option. Furthermore, not only should the Address Books be out of sight, but I think the contacts populating them should also be hidden from the All Address Books directory, since in hiding those lists of contacts, we're actually hiding the contacts themselves. ...

This is a bug on MacOS (and maybe others): Clicking on a link from another program doesn't open new tab when you enable the restore tabs option in the system settings.
