One of my favorite extensions in Chrome was the ability to double click a word and it would give a pop-up with the definition. I have not found any extensions like this for Firefox (at least ones that work).  ... View more

Hello, Today I highlighted some text and clumsily selected a wrong item from the drop down menu, and was disgusted to see I had started some AI slop built into Firefox. I then spent some time trying to figure out how to disable all the AI features that had been added/integrated into Firefox and enabled without my knowledge. I don't care for AI. I don't want it running on my machine locally. I do not want my browser interacting with external AI without my knowledge. Period. I'm alarmed this crap was enabled without my knowledge or consent. And if you like using AI, power to you. Similar to a variety of personal choices, I am happy for those who partake. Just don't force it on me. Enabling these features by default and not notifying users adequately is just awful. To me it is clear these features are not wanted or useful because if they were, you would allow users to opt in rather than force this on all users. I'm sure there is a rea$on this stuff gets stealth enabled for all users. There should, at an absolute bare minimum, be a very clear setting that disables/removes ALL of the AI elements of Firefox. I should NOT have to consult a non-Mozilla guide to find all the dozen or so about:config entries to disable. Absolutely shameful behavior and disrespectful to users. I expect better from a company presenting a product as a more consumer friendly and privacy-focused alternative to Edge or Chrome. The differences get smaller every update. ... View more

Imagine this situation. You're sending an email to a client. You describe all the arrangements you've made with the client. You want to add a hidden recipient or send a copy of the email to another recipient—for example, your boss at work. You want to add a message that the client will contact you in three weeks, so no one else interferes and doesn't rush the client's decision. An additional hidden message field, intended only for the selected recipient, would be useful. Currently, I send one email, then send another separate email to the second recipient with this additional information. Therefore, I have to open the emails twice and write them separately. What if there were an additional field, such as ADD A NOTE FOR THE RECIPIENT IN A COPY or IN A BLIND COPY—where you could add a short sentence, an explanation, or a code for an offer that the client doesn't need, but employees at the company do? What do you think? ... View more

Progressive Web apps are an important feature of a browser that Firefox is the only one missing. For some, it can be the reason to switch to another browser. In other cases like for the Steamdeck, it's what imposed the choice to only include Chrome in the SteamOS interface. Other problem even for avid Firefox users, since I wanted Social apps on my pc I had to get them on the Microsoft Store which is an Edge PWA that opens every link in an Edge window, making me use this... other browser. ...

Recently I had to update an expired certificate for a web service. The only way to update the certificate was to log into the service and upload a new certificate. Unfortunately, the server folks implemented HSTS on the server so I had no choice but to use https to access the service. In Chrome, I was able to use the "thisisunsafe" easter egg to temporarily accept the old certificate while replacing it, but I was unable to find any workaround in Firefox that allowed me to log into the server, navigate to the administration menu, then upload and implement the new certificate. Please go back to allowing users to decide when to override certificate errors. ... View more

Posting here as suggested in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1915770 - If you vote here, kindly vote on bugzilla as well. Thank you! I use the Quick Filter / Quick Search extensively. In the past, pressing Enter after typing the search criteria would have no effect and the Quick-search would continue normally. Since a few versions ago, pressing Enter stops the quicksearch and takes the user to Global Search. In my case, that's never my intention - if it were, I would've pressed Ctrl-Shift-F in the first place. When I type things in the quick-filter field, I want to stay WITHIN the mailbox in which I'm doing the search and just have messages filtered, regardless of whether I press Enter. Having used Thunderbird for years, muscle memory makes it very difficult to avoid this issue, so it would be great if this were a configurable setting. Currently some kind soul created an add-on to get the old behavior back (see the discussion in bugzilla - link above), but it really should be a setting. Thanks!   ... View more

So apparently the android version of FireFox gives you the option to change the logo to a variety of different options including the nicer, original logo on a white background. A: Can we get these options for the desktop version of FireFox. B: Can we get the nicer, original logo with a black, red or dark purple background like the more bland modern one has. ... View more

Since this feature hit my browser after an update a while ago, I'm constantly annoyed by it. I've been dragging tabs all the way to the left to rearrange them practically forever, and now suddenly doing this is pinning tabs that I don't want to pin - I'm just trying to rearrange my tabs. Perhaps I'm in the minority here, and that's fine - this feature can be enabled by default; however, an option to disable it altogether (via settings or even an about:config option) would go a long way. This feature greatly disrupts my workflows and has proven to slow me down when I'm in my flow state while developing websites. I need this feature to be toggle-able to continue using Firefox as my daily driver browser. Update 2025-09-29: This feature can now be (mostly) disabled via an about:config option (as of v143.0.3). Setting "browser.tabs.dragDrop.pinInteractionCue.delayMS" to any relatively high value should effectively disable the option. The value is the number of milliseconds before the pin tab option triggers. I set mine to 2000, requiring a full 2s before the feature triggers, which has generally solved the issue for me. I encourage you to adjust this config option to your liking once your browser is updated to at least 143.0.3 ... View more

On Linux, I am able to set the homepage and new windows to a custom URL, however; for new tabs I am only able to choose between a blank page and "Firefox Home" which apparently is a different homepage than the homepage defined by my custom URL. While there are plugins to enable this, I believe this should be an easy enough addition to support in house. ... View more

Hi everyone! I often use Firefox windows for websites like WhatsApp or Telegram. These websites are not really just “regular websites” but rather full-featured, semi-standalone web applications. It would be incredibly convenient if, for such windows, I could hide (remove) the navigation toolbar with the back/forward buttons and the address bar, so that only the website content remains visible. F11 does something close to what I want, but it switches the window into fullscreen mode. Would it be possible to add a button, menu item, or shortcut (for example, Shift+F11) that hides all browser UI in the window without going fullscreen? ... View more

I've noticed that I quite frequently need to copy links from multiple (or even all) tabs. Currently, it's only possible to do that manually by going through each tab and copying the URL from the URL bar. There is a feature of copying the link of a tab through right-click -> "Share" -> "Copy Link" but it only copies a single link when multiple tabs are selected. It would be great if this feature would copy the links of all selected tabs. It could even apply to all "Share" options - "AirDrop", "Mail", etc. The link could be separate by comma or a new-line. ... View more

Make it easier to hide the share button in the address bar in Firefox on Android.

Instead of shoving so called AI tools in Firefox, I would love a feature that can detect AI content, whether in text or in media (audio, image, video).

I'm watching a YT video. It ends. Advertisements appear. I switch to another tab to relax.  Some ads are funny, others not. I look at the YT tab preview if I can skip. But it's a steady picture.
