This option is currently not foreseen in the revamped History sidebar (see Firefox Nightly). [Example] Let's say you browse github.com on a daily basis. In Firefox 130 (release), I can go to "Yesterday" and go to the folder "github.com" to search for pages that I know I visited on Github yesterday. Quick and easy! In the new History sidebar, I can see all the history for "github.com", but I won't know which pages I visited yesterday. Alternatively, I can see all the history for "yesterday", but I won't have the github pages grouped, making it more difficult to find them between the other (chronologically sorted) history. Using the search is not always the solution, because sometimes you don't remember the title of the page you're looking for. Having them combined in a folder per website makes it easier to find them back. [Proposed changes] When "sort by date" is active, visited pages are sorted by their timestamp (new to old). In this way, it replaces both the old "Sort by recently visited" and "Sort by date" options. Implemented ✅ When "sort by date and website" is active, visited pages are sorted alphabetically (just like when "sort by website" is active). Visited pages are first grouped by date (using collapsible headers), next by website (using collapsible folders). See mock-up in attachment.  ⏳Waiting for implementation   ... View more

Background & Problem: Imagine you're logged into your banking portal through a VPN. Your VPN drops silently, and your next action — like checking your balance — happens over your real IP. Your session might get flagged, logged, or even locked. Many users rely on VPNs for privacy, security, or to bypass censorship. However, when a VPN connection drops unexpectedly, the user's real IP address becomes exposed. If the user has sensitive tabs open (e.g. email, banking, or region-locked services), and those tabs attempt to send or refresh data after the VPN disconnects, serious privacy or security risks can arise — without the user realizing it. Current browser protections don’t account for this scenario, especially not in a granular, tab-specific way. Proposed Feature: Intelligent, Tab-Specific IP Monitoring & Kill Switch A new feature in Firefox that allows users to enable IP protection (Kill Switch) for specific tabs. Once enabled, Firefox stores the IP address associated with that tab at the moment of activation. Every time that tab attempts to make a new network request (such as refreshing content, sending a form, background polling, or fetching an API), Firefox compares the current IP with the stored IP. If the IP has changed, Firefox pauses the request and alerts the user before proceeding. User Experience: Users can right-click a tab and select: Enable VPN/IP Kill Switch for this Tab If an IP change is detected later, the tab is paused and a warning message is displayed: "Your IP address has changed, likely due to VPN disconnection. This tab has been paused to protect your privacy. Choose how to proceed:" Continue with new IP (not recommended) Retry after reconnecting VPN Close tab Learn more Benefits: Privacy & Security: Prevents unintended IP leaks from active tabs without the need for full-system kill switches. Granularity: Users can apply this feature only where it matters, avoiding unnecessary overhead on all tabs. Efficiency: Unlike global IP monitoring, this method only checks IP changes when requests are about to be made — saving resources. Simplicity: No dependency on VPN providers or OS-level APIs — fully implemented within Firefox's own networking stack. Technical Feasibility: Firefox already manages request interception (e.g., for extensions, developer tools). Storing the original IP at activation and comparing it before a request is straightforward. Optional: Allow extensions to access/augment this feature for custom workflows or advanced VPN setups. Conclusion: This feature aligns perfectly with Firefox's commitment to user privacy and control. It's lightweight, practical, and fills a real-world gap for millions of VPN users. I believe this addition could be an innovative step in making Firefox even more privacy-respecting and VPN-friendly. I’d be glad to collaborate or provide more technical considerations if needed. Thank you for considering this idea! ... View more

Hello everyone, I really like the different view options for the folder structure in Thunderbird. However, I find it unfortunate that the different views are simply stacked one below the other. I would love it if I could simply choose how I want to view them using three or four buttons above the tree structure. I could imagine: 1 button = all folders 2 button = only folders with unread messages 3 button = favorites 4 button = customizable This way, you can easily switch between the views depending on your current interests and find what you're looking for more quickly. I personally find the current solution somewhat ineffective. ... View more

Generally, there is not enough space to show the whole page title on the tab. The URL bar, of which the complete URL is not cared about by the most users, is a good place to show it. In the old days, I have made an extension for that purpose: https://web.archive.org/web/20181101232504/https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/page-title/ Now I created a userChrome.js script version for it: https://github.com/Merci-chao/userChrome.js?tab=readme-ov-file#page-title-in-url-bar It would be great if it is a native optional feature in Firefox. I remember that the Android version had it, but has been dropped now. ... View more

Hello, these Independent Voices are certainly nice, but I want to set my own independent color (for example, some cyan, any RGB) or a photo with a creeper (to feel the simpler times). And at the same time, I want the Firefox logo on the main screen to adapt and, if necessary, turn black so it doesn't blend in with the wallpaper. In Waterfox, this is not fully implemented, and the logo text does not change color, as I understand it. I believe this is one of the small joys that will significantly make the world better and more orange. Please don't merge it with that idea with 0 kudos; its title seems not entirely obvious to me. ... View more

OK. Here me out.... Having a cute little fox animation sit on the side and crawl behind the main center areas when you first open the application.

Like many, I have placed my trust in Mozilla Firefox for more than a decade and really appreciate how safely it handles my most secure information and online interactions. The new Act is causing high levels of concern in the UK and elsewhere and I implicitly agree adult/harmful content must not be viewed by those under 18 years old. Is there a way that Mozilla could provide an age verification facility for UK use, please? ... View more

Hi. In this image there are 3 screenshots of the same browser tab in different states. The tab is the first one in the list. In example [1] no audio is playing. In example [2] audio is playing and because the audio indicator pops up the tab widens, pushing the "close tab" button part of the tab behind the "scroll forwards" arrow instead of widening the tab away from it. This behavior is, to me a least, very annoying. Example [3] is of course how it's intended too look. Example [4] is  a suggestion for how I think tabs should look when audio is being played. No need for annoying size changes. To mute the tab you can click on the top green line to make it red. Maybe the line should be one or two pixels wider, but it's just an example.

I recently started to use the convenient side panel for History and Bookmarks but noticed that Downloads are "missing" there. I'd love to be able to press CTRL + "letter", drag and drop a downloaded file to a folder or an external app from the side panel and then re-use the same keyboard shortcut to close the side panel. I believe it would be more ergonomic and productivity-focused feature for many users. ... View more

When Mozilla launched a VPN I was really excited to have a way to 'subscribe' and support the org, in that vein I'd just like to say that I'd pay up to $20 a month for a web-based email client with features like that that one really popular one that's free (unless you place value on your privacy). I don't know if anyone else feels the same way but thought I should put it out there (apologies if this is common suggestion, I'm new to these forums).   ... View more

v.128.  Create a calendar event that spans multiple days in a row.  The single multiple day event is shown as individual units on each day.  Instead, have a single banner span the days.  Below is how it shows now, the fix would show one single bar spanning the 12th to the 15th with no break because its a single event. ...

  Like many others, I have been using Thunderbird on my desktop for many years. More than 20. I tried the Android version (I previously tried its K-9 precursor) and I am quite disappointed. There is one missing feature that is an absolute deal-breaker for me: You cannot expand and/or collapse folders in the folders list. Every one of my folders is displayed in one very long list. ...

When we use the following syntax to deploy a new IMAP account to Thunderbird for Android, it would be great if there was a way to deploy a signature for this account in the same data structure.  It would probably have to be a non-HTML signature without images?  Or maybe it could specify a URL where a preconfigured HTML signature could be downloaded (ie from the company's web site in a directory like /.well-known/signatures/   [1,    [1,1],    [0,"imap.myserver.com",993,3,1,"myusername","myusername","mypassword"],    [        [          [0,"smtp.myserver.com",587,2,1,"myusername","mypassword"],          ["myenglishname","Richard, Fincher UK"]       ]    ] ] ...

Hi, Currently, when I click on the hamburger menu (top-left) in the Thunderbird Mobile on Android, it displays the list of folders and subfolders of the account I am on, starting with the main ones (inbox, outbox, archive, etc.). However, when it comes to my own subfolders, the displayed name is very convenient: when folder A contains folder B, folder is listed as "A.B" and vertically aligned with folder A. It would be much cleaner and easier to visualise to call it "B" and to add a small horizontal increment, so that the name "B" would be a little bit more to the right. Thanks! ... View more
