With email correspondence which goes back and forth for some time, the subject often changes. But when I manually change the subject, the replies stay in the same thread. I'd really like to have them in a new thread. It would be easier to locate them if needed.

Dear Sir or Madam,
ZoomText Smart Invert ...is an extension that displays images in their natural color while inverting the screen brightness or color with ZoomText from Freedom Scientific. This reduces glare when switching between programs. So far, it works in Edge and Google.
I use your excellent Mozilla Firefox as my default browser.
I would be very happy if you could add this extension, ZoomText Smart Invert, to your browser!!! Thank you very much for your kind clarification!
Best regards, B. Michel

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren
ZoomText Smart Invert
…ist eine Erweiterung, die Bilder in ihrer natürlichen Farbe anzeigt, während die Helligkeit oder Farbe des Bildschirms mit Zoomtext von Freedom Scientific invertiert wird.
Damit gibt es weniger Blendung beim Wechsel zwischen den Programmen.
Bisher funktioniert sie in Edge und Google.
Ich benutze als Standardbrowser Ihren hervorragenden Mozilla Firefox.
Es würde mich sehr freuen, wenn Sie diese Erweiterung
ZoomText Smart Invert in Ihrem Browser programmieren könnten!!!
Besten Dank für Ihre wohlwollende Abklärung!
Hoffnungsvolle Grüsse
B. Michel

This mostly makes mostsense when the feature to have multiple levels of folders have been implemented. When we have mutiple levels it makes more sense to use the upper folder settings for the default. in an structure like this: Archive/ - 2024/ - - mozilla - 2025/ - - mozilla/ it would be nice to set the visibility of Archive/2024 to off without needing to change the visibility of Archive/2024/mozilla.

Right now when you go to settings and click on the cell for a search engine under the keyword column, it shows a text box for me to add keywords to use in the URL bar. You can't do so for bookmarks, tabs, or history which are locked to * % and ^ respectively.

Can we update Firefox search engine options to include Startpage? Other browsers already have this & would make it a lot easier to use on my phone.

Utilize contact images instead of the colored initials. Allow us to customize our email Accounts profile pic to actual images instead of colored initials.

A feature that allows you to add whatever you want to the new sidebar. The possibilities are endless - you could even have apps like calendar, notes, weather sort of like Vivaldi, or a second place to display bookmarks of your choice.
I think the "app idea" is the most useful though - so you can just click right on an icon and bring up an "app" instead of visiting the website. you can maybe add your own apps but then there are also a few "built in apps" with their own custom loading animation and everything, for the same seamless experience you get when opening an app on a smartphone.
Just an idea I think would be cool and useful!

Hello all,
as the Folders panel was short of space, I just decided to get rid of the folders 'Sent', 'Draft', 'Archive', 'Notes', etc ... that clutter the space : to do this I checked as 'Favorite' each of the folders that I wanted to keep on display, and in the "Modes" menu, I unchecked "All folders", and checked instead "Favorites folders".
Great ! I was really happy with the result 😎, ... but I got the disappointment at the moment I wanted to open one of the folders to access the content of the sub-folders : there was no sub-folder and no way to access the sub-folders 😭
I am probably supposed to check as favorite every and each sub-folder also, but this is beyond my reach, as I have plenty of them !
This is why I share this suggestion : upon checking as favorite a folder, consider all its sub-folders also as favorites

I also want to throw my hat into the ring. There are some things that Chrome does better than Firefox, and I will list one area where Firefox could improve in future releases.
Browser History Page
Mozilla should seriously consider adding this feature to Firefox because it directly addresses a significant gap in user experience. Users today expect a browser that not only protects their privacy but also offers them the tools they need to navigate their online activities effectively.
Why isn't there an about:history in Firefox yet? Implementing a detailed history page that opens in a new tab, similar to Chrome, would empower users to easily track their browsing habits over time. This isn't just about convenience; it's about giving users the ability to find important information from weeks, months, or even years ago. Limiting history to just 7 days feels outdated and restrictive, especially when users often need to revisit older content for work, research, or personal reasons.
Adding this feature would significantly enhance user satisfaction and loyalty, making Firefox a more appealing choice for those who value both privacy and functionality.

The new extension are a great addition to an already really cool service. And really you already had me at the Firefox container integration. And.
I can live without port-forwarding
I can live without a Linux CLI-tool
But I really can't subscribe before you allow generating Wireguard configs that I can download and use. Its genuinely the last feature missing that would be expected of a VPN provider. Please I'm begging you I really wanna give you my money.

in vertical tabs mode, above the address bar the windows should be to be grabbed. there's only a few pixels there but that is enough. I usually just bump the cursor against the edge of the screen and click+hold but in this mode this is not possible. please add!

As per https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/issues/935
Identity selection could be enhanced to make life a lot easier for people who have a catch-all domain, similar to how Thunderbird allows customizing the sender.
Identity selection should be : -free to edit and modify when writing a message (more or less as the recipient field currently is) -automatically set with the best value guessed from the recipient values, when replying. This would be a great feature to differentiate K9 mail from other rigid email clients.

Dear developers,
I would like to suggest an improvement. Currently, in mobile Firefox, there is a gesture control feature on the bottom navigation bar: when you swipe left or right on the tab switcher button, you can move between tabs. However, to close a tab, you need to tap and hold the tab switcher button (which shows the number of open tabs) until a menu appears, and then select "Close Tab."
My suggestion is to add a more convenient gesture: when the user swipes up on the tab number button, the current tab would close immediately. This would make tab management faster and more intuitive.
What do you think about this idea?

I really like the sidebar, and I think vertical tabs are amazing, even though really new.
I want to make a lot of extensions like "side view" that open a website as a sidebar popup, for example a dictionary. This would be really useful.
But currently the vertical tabs are in the same sidebar, so a sidebar popup will be next to the sidebar, which is not ergonomic as it squeezes the main website to the very left. See this image:
Instead, 2 options would suffice for this:
1. Allow having the vertical tabs in a separate sidebar on the other side
With 2 sidebars this could then look like this. Tabs are one, sidebar is the other. I think this makes sense?
As the vertical tab bar does not have the default "sidebar spacer" this also looks really nice, not like 2 sidebars at all.
2. Allow addons to spawn a window on the other side
The popular (even recommended!) extension "SideBerry" is basically the same as the new vertical tabs UI-wise. It integrates nicely and works well, at least for now.
But with the new sidebar, Sideberry seems to use the "spawn popup window from sidebar" feature so it cannot be displayed at the same time as for example a "SideView" window would, which makes it a pretty bad tab bar. You would need to switch between them which is really bad UX.
So if Sideberry could spawn a separate popup on the opposite side, it would look like this:
Sideberry in this case would not be launched from the sidebar anymore but from an extension menu, or always shown. I am not sure how buggy that would be, for example the "overlay popup" or the "Orbit" extension covers part of the page and thus does not work at all.
So that popup would need to restrict the usable space to render websites, so that they adapt instead of being overlaid.
Regardless, any of those 2 features would be really nice! Until then I will stay with horizontal tabs which is kinda sad.

💡 Idea: Add a Productivity Dashboard to Thunderbird that helps users better understand and manage their email habits through smart stats and actionable insights. 🧠 How it works: This dashboard would provide a clear overview of how you interact with your inbox over time. Example features could include: ⏱️ Time spent reading and replying to emails per day/week. 📥 Average response time to incoming emails. ⏳ Unreplied emails tracker (e.g., highlight emails that haven’t been answered after X days). 🔁 Reply rate: How often you respond to certain contacts or types of emails. 🧹 Suggestions to clean up or archive low-priority threads. All analytics would be shown in a clean, visual format, with graphs, trends, and filters (per contact, label, folder…). 🛠️ Optional Features: Custom goals (e.g., “Reply to all work emails within 24h”). Focus score or inbox stress level indicator. Email batching reminders (“You replied to 20 emails — take a break!”). Exportable reports (CSV, PDF). ✅ Benefits: Helps users build better email habits and avoid burnout. Encourages timely replies and declutters inboxes. Great for professionals, support teams, or anyone with a high volume of email. Can support mental well-being by preventing overload. 🔐 Privacy: All tracking would be done locally, with zero data sharing. No behavioral data is sent anywhere — everything stays on the user’s device.
