If vertical pinned tabs have "Expand sidebar on hover" on, they have a "Close tab" button, so they are not pinned at all. This doesn't happen with any other pinned tab. ... View more

In a message list, an email will show 3 chunks of text: sender, subject, and preview. The preview text should appear on its own separate line, for readability and glancability. Currently, it appears on the same line as the subject (I have it set to show sender above subject). I will frequently get emails from the same sender and subject line, meaning the preview lines are the only way to differentiate the emails -- it is tricky to scan through the email list when the preview text potentially appears part way along a line and sometimes part way along the 4th+ line if it has a long subject. It is easy to identify the preview text for an unread message (due to bold sender/subject), but this is not easy with "read" messages. An example of dark mode with some messages read/unread is attached. ... View more

Hello Firefox team, Before I get completely slated, this was a half-five in the morning idea, but do hear me out! 😅 With Tailwind CSS becoming increasingly prevalent in web development, what if browsers supported it natively? Rather than every website shipping the same CSS framework repeatedly, browsers could have Tailwind utilities built-in. The vision: Developers write class="flex items-center justify-between" and it simply works - no build steps, no bundle bloat, no version conflicts. Why this could be brilliant: Massive performance gains - eliminate CSS framework bundles from millions of websites Instant developer experience - no setup, no compilation, just crack on with coding Faster internet for everyone - smaller payloads mean quicker loading globally AI-first development ready - LLMs like v0, Claude, and ChatGPT all default to Tailwind when generating code. Native support means AI-generated interfaces work instantly without any setup Better AI development efficiency - LLMs wouldn't need to include Tailwind documentation or boilerplate in their context windows, freeing up space for more complex application logic and features Firefox as the innovation leader - be the first browser to make this leap Why Firefox particularly: You've always been pioneers in web standards and developer experience. This could be your CSS Grid moment - a feature so compelling that other browsers would have to follow suit. Getting Tailwind Labs on board would probably be easier than you'd think, especially if it means instant standardisation across the web without the usual standards committee faff. I know there are technical complexities I haven't fully considered, but the core idea feels rather inevitable. Utility-first CSS is clearly the direction the industry's heading - why not make it native? Would love to hear if this resonates with the team. Even if it's mad, perhaps it's the good sort of mad? Cheers! ... View more

Dear Mozilla Community Members, We propose an innovative feature for the Firefox Add-ons Store: the CSS UI Section. This feature will provide users with a customizable interface experience akin to browser themes, but with greater flexibility and personalization. Currently, the Firefox Add-ons Store offers users a wide array of browser extensions and themes. However, for users seeking to customize their browser interface, learning and applying CSS can be a daunting task. Therefore, we suggest introducing the CSS UI Section, allowing users to directly access and apply CSS files to customize their browser interface. Advantages: Lowered Barrier to Entry: The CSS UI Section will significantly lower the barrier to entry for users looking to customize their browser interface. Instead of learning and editing the userChrome.css file, users can simply browse and apply CSS files they like from the store, making personalization effortless. Increased Choice: Introducing the CSS UI Section will offer users more choices, enriching their browser customization experience. Users can easily browse and compare different CSS files to find the interface style that suits them best. Community Engagement: This feature will also foster community engagement and contribution. Developers can create and share their own designed CSS files, enriching the store's selection and providing users with more inspiration and possibilities. We believe that introducing the CSS UI Section will make Firefox customization simpler, more flexible, and more enjoyable. We look forward to hearing your feedback and suggestions to make Firefox an even more personalized browser! People share their CSS files on these sites at present，and it's not for beginners, and it's hard for everyone to notice： 1.https://firefoxcss-store.github.io/ 2.https://github.com/MrOtherGuy/firefox-csshacks 3.https://www.reddit.com/r/FirefoxCSS/ Thank you for your support!

It appears that TB currently runs its automatic message filters only on messages in the Inbox. If a filter needs to be run on the messages in another folder, one has to do so manually. This is very cumbersome (and quite beats the purpose of an automatic filter), especially in scenarios where there are server-side filters that sort messages into folders or subfolders. Those messages never get processed by TB's filter rules. It would be great if TB could either run the configured filters automatically on ALL folders, not just the Inbox or allow to mark each filter individually for being run on ALL folders (eg. via an additional checkbox besides "Enabled" in the filter overview pane) or allow to select a folder on which to run the filter in the "Edit/New filter" dialog window (maybe using Inbox as default if none is selected). The logic and data source for that dropdown would be the same as for the "Run selected filter(s) on:" that is already present at the bottom of the filter overview pane. Thanks for considering this idea - and for the great mail client! ... View more

It would be great if the thunderbird app launches and stays in background, like the telegram and the teams app, so that the user could get new mail notification without having bring the thunderbird to foreground. Currently, in gnome (I have no idea of other desktop environments), the thunderbird opens in the dock and not in the top bar. In contrast, apps like telegram and microsoft teams launch as an icon on the top bar and could be brought to the dock/foreground by either double clicking on the tray icon or by choosing the open option from the dropdown menu triggered by single clicking the tray icon. On quitting the foreground app, the app minimises to the tray and not quit directly. Quitting can be done only from the dropdown menu (it is a selectable option and not a norm). If similar functionality could were to be available in thunderbird, the mail client could notify the user of new mails without fail and there would not be a fear of missing out on mail if the app is not ritualistically opened and the mails checked for. Ps: The bluemail email client has a similar feature, but it has to launch in the foreground at least once. Which gets annoying as it has to be closed every time on boot and at times it gets uneasy to show mails to bystanders, just because the system has just booted. Thanking you in advance!! ...

I'd like to suggest that the highlighting-box (where you pick colors etc.) that appears when you choose to highlight in PDFs should be changed for increased readability.  Rather than the box that currently steals a lot of space from the document when the highlighting-tool is active, you should add a feature that lets you highlight without the box appearing. This would increase the readability a lot!  Thank you for providing a great browser and considering this suggestion.  ... View more

I think the ability to have groups be on the sidebar, but tabs on the topbar, would be a really good feature. I love groups, but I find myself often still just using multiple windows instead of the groups. When I learned about vertical tabs, my brain instantly went "that would be great for groups". I could fully hide them when I don't need them, and when I do, it'd be very quick to switch between them, and quite a bit less jarring than using separate windows. Plus, they'd be named, so no more alt-tabbing through a rotation of windows searching for one, and it'd make reorganising tabs easier. Honestly, even just allowing for both vertical and horizontal tabs at the same time would be nice. ... View more

Why ? Currently, Firefox’s default tab design colors all unselected tabs uniformly (typically white), making it difficult to visually distinguish between multiple open tabs, especially when 20 or more tabs are open. This often leads to accidental clicks on the close (“x”) button or difficulty quickly selecting the desired tab. There are currently no extensions capable of doing this for UNSELECTED horizontal tabs - so presumably it is an extension limitation by design. I propose adding an optional toggle setting (OFF by default) that automatically assigns different background colors to unselected tabs (only the tab bit at the top of the screen) immediately upon opening. The colors could be generated based on domain, tab order, or a consistent color palette, providing immediate visual differentiation without user intervention. Benefits: (AI wrote this bit) Enhances usability for users with many open tabs by making tabs easier to identify at a glance. Reduces accidental tab closures caused by clicking the close button unintentionally. Maintains Firefox’s clean default UI by keeping the feature off by default, respecting users who prefer uniform tabs. Empowers users with greater customization and accessibility options. Aligns with Firefox’s focus on user-centric design and customization. ... View more

Molti utenti continuano a utilizzare macOS High Sierra (10.13) per motivi di compatibilità hardware o software, e Firefox ESR è spesso l’unico browser moderno ancora funzionante su questi sistemi.
