I appreciate the customizable toolbar, but I would like to add an icon button for the SHARE command that is currently hiding in the File menu. Most MacOS programs have an icon for this in their toolbar (a box with a vertical arrow pointing up, out of the box) -- it would be great it Firefox did this too, as I find myself using the SHARE command a great deal. thanks, -- dave

Almost all the application I am using on macOS default using Fn+f(🌐︎+F) to toggle full screen view, and Safarai/Chrome/Edge all support, they also support Ctrl+CMD+F(as well as Firefox). Can you please consider to support this shortcut? Thanks.

Currently, in Firefox, add-on popups are immediately closed when they lose focus. This behavior is inconvenient, especially when opening a Save As dialog causes the popup window to close. For example, if a popup generates a Blob URL and attempts to download it using the Download API, the popup closes, revoking the URL and causing the download to fail. Additionally, any post-download actions become impossible. Furthermore, users might want to save multiple media files via right-click from the popup, but the current behavior prevents them from doing so as the popup closes each time. I suggest modifying this behavior so that popups do not close when focus moves to a window outside of Firefox, but only when switching to another document within Firefox.

It would be amazing to declutter the tab bar from the (sometimes many) pinned tab we keep, moving them (and only them) to the sidebar (i.e., making them vertical and icon-only, along with history, bookmarks and other sidebar buttons, and keeping the other tabs in the horizontal top bar). Currently there's no way to do this, either they are all vertical or they are all horizontal.

Hello As a tab hoarder, two extensions that have been instrumental at keeping my sanity are 1. Papaly bookmark manager due to it's hierarchical folder-like display of bookmarks and ability to drag and drop organize all links. UI is similar to what I recreated: Recreation of papaly interface in Logseq showing expanded and collapsed folders. 2. Tab manager plus to move tabs between windows mentally designated to different topics. Allows drag and drop , multiple tab selection and even distinguishes minimized windows. Only wish it had additional options like hide tabs/windows like in foxytab and also bookmarking. As you notice, both these extensions have UI similar to that offered by firefox view open tabs and if these simple functionalities are added, would make default experience of firefox infinitely better for a user. Thanks to the two extensions I've been much more savvy with links although currently I've had to drop papaly due to unreliable service. In summary, firefox view can benefit from: 1. Show tab groups like collapsible folder in firefox view 2. Have a bookmarks section similar UI to open tabs view 3. Allow multiple selection of tabs across windows and operations on selected tabs. 4. The ability to minimize/close windows and distinguish them, name them or completely hide them! I organize topics on different windows and I want to hide windows I'm not focused on. No, I won't close them or bookmark them for later. 5. Allow drag and drop operation, especially from open tabs/windows/tab groups to bookmarks and also vice-versa! Resuming browsing of compiled links can be as simple as dragging it into a tab group or window where you're already working on something similar. I think this will satisfy the purpose of firefox view being to view everything in a nice visual with powerful interactable UI. I mean I'll just set my homepage to the bookmarks view if that were possible too ^^

Hello team, my idea is to add an option to the Firefox mobile version in the tabs settings so that when Firefox is closed on the mobile (by swiping), Firefox deletes the tabs when it is reopened, and when you go back in, it starts at 0 of the tabs.

I would like to see more pinned tabs in the collapsed (icons only) vertical tab sidebar. Currently the pinned tabs get truncated and you have to scroll through them if there are more than 4. Thank you.

I think it would be interesting being able to open new tabs in inverse order. I mean: 1) When using horizontal tabs: - Show the "Open a new tab" icon at the left of the opened tabs - Open the new tabs (when clicking that icon) at the left of the rest of the opened tabs 2) When using vertical tabs: - Show the "New tab" element above the opened tabs - Open the new tabs (when clicking that element) above of the rest of the opened tabs

v136 introduced dynamically-expanding tab sizes on tabs with audio. This can be laggy though, as a page loads and the video/audio starts playing, causing misclicks. The tabs will also then shrink back down eventually once the audio's been idle for awhile, which can be visually distracting. There's some kind of thing that can be done with userchrome.css, but this is a workaround that's not viable for most users.

It should be a must have to group tabs with a right klick on the tab (like it's possible in Google Chrome) and assign the group with a description and a color. Then you can easily open and close a whole group with multiple tabs in it with just one klick. It would be beautiful! Greetings Paul

If I reply to a message, I have threading enabled so I can see the original email and the reply I sent (in Sent). (excuse my poor 'graphical representation') Original Message |- Reply Message If I read the "Reply Message", the reading pane includes the original message I replied to, not simply what I said. I want to turn off the display of the original message, when I look at the 'Sent' message. Example Original Message : Hello Reply Message : Good to see you when I open the reply message I see Subject and Message Headers Hello ---------------- Subject and message headers Good to see you I only want to see Subject and message headers Good to see you If I wanted to read the previous messages in the conversation, I would read those messages. Can I do this? It would be nice if this capability could be enabled or disabled as a setting. I recently got horribly confused with an email 'conversation' between 4 people that replied to all for each message.

Would love to be able to backup my entire Firefox system to another computer. Personally I have an office machine, a home machine, a loungeroom machine, etc etc. My Office machine has many profiles set up, just right and It would be great to sync them all to all my other machines. I was told to just copy the Mozilla folder in Appdata/roaming to another machine, but Firefox on that machine was blank. I asked this question in the forum but no one seems to know.

When Thunderbird's Quick Filter is initially summoned, it shows a text field, with buttons that are right justified to the window. When filtering criteria are met, such as simply clicking the "Show only unread messages" button, the message count appears to the right of the filter buttons, shifting them to the left. As a result, if a desktop user wants to toggle the "Show only unread messages" (or other) button on then off again, they must "chase" the button to its new location, which requires looking back for the new location of the button bar and moving the mouse. I would suggest the message count appear between the text box and the filter buttons, so that the filter buttons do not relocate. i.e. before application of a filter, the Quick Filter bar appears as: [Filter messages... <CTRL>+<SHIFT>+<K> ][icon][icon][icon][icon][icon] After application, it currently it appears as [Filter messages... <CTRL>+<SHIFT>+<K>][ICON][icon][icon][icon][icon] 15 messages whereas I suggest: [Filter messages... <CTRL>+<SHIFT>+<K>] 15 messages [ICON][icon][icon][icon][icon] So that the buttons (illustrated here as [icon] with [ICON] as the enabled filter), do not move upon application, and so the user may simply click the mouse button a second time to disable the filter just applied, without having to visually consult the button's new location and move the mouse pointer.

Not many people know, that addons with "many" users are actually manually reviewed - same as those "Recommended". I know this only because my speed dial is one of those addons: Please be aware of a recent change to AMO’s review process: All extension submissions with a significantly large number of users are now subject to human review by the add-ons review team before approval. This may, occasionally, result in minor delays publishing new versions of your extension on AMO. We’ve made this change to provide Firefox users with even greater security assurances for some of AMO’s most popular extensions. As always, we greatly appreciate your contributions to the Firefox extension ecosystem. Cheers! This is great for users security! But why is it not communicated to users? My addon listing page still shows the warning: "This add-on is not actively monitored for security by Mozilla. Make sure you trust it before installing." Also other addons with much more users shows the warning: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pinterest/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/videospeed/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/malwarebytes/ Addons security is complex, and users can't tell whether addon is safe or not. (even I wouldn't dare to install addon with "Access your data for all websites" permission, unless it has "Recommended" badge, or unless I've build it myself!) Giving users extra info about addons security would be a great help!

Please restore the “Do Not Track” checkbox in FireFox and make it the default setting. The argument for removing this as I understand it is that most sites do not recognize it anyways. However I believe this misses the point. First, there are some websites I know which at least claim to recognize this signal (they used to present a little popup acknowledging it). This to me is an indication that’s a website I ought to prefer over competitors. I want that type of indication as to which websites respect privacy and which do not. Second, the fact that few people present “Do Not Track” signals provides companies a justification for NOT respecting it. It also provides cover for lawmakers who don’t want to pass legislation requiring it. Basically, I want that signal enabled to make a point that I DO want respecting it to be required. Lastly, I want to not give consent to things automatically. While it may not be legally binding on companies at this time, to the maximum extent possible I would like to be able to make the argument that I did not consent to having my data collected and shared. As to the idea that it could “reduce privacy”, I assume this refers to “fingerprinting” because few people would have it enabled. The solution is simple: it should be on by default. If MOST FireFox users had this flag enabled because it was the default, then it would not be adding much information which facilitated fingerprinting. I particularly find the “note” on the Do Not Track support page that “You may see less relevant advertising on websites if you have the Do Not Track option activated” to be particularly frustrating. So your support page is in fact acknowledging that this flag could have some effect on the user's experience. But this is exactly what we are trying to achieve with this flag!!!! The fact that companies are trying to profile us and feed us advertising or content (which might not just be advertising things they want us to buy, but potentially also political messages) based on what their algorithms and the profiles they are generating of us conclude are our psychological weaknesses is exactly the thing we wanted privacy focused technology to prevent. We may want to know if advertisers are "talking out of both sides of their mouth" by telling everyone exactly what they think we want to hear.

I would like to propose adding support for SMTP Delivery Status Notifications (DSN) in Thunderbird when sending emails. Currently, Thunderbird only allows users to request a read receipt (Disposition-Notification-To header), which depends on the recipient's willingness to acknowledge the message. However, Thunderbird does not support SMTP DSN, which allows the receiving mail server to automatically notify the sender of successful delivery, failure, or delays — independently of the recipient’s actions. The implementation of this feature would enable Thunderbird to send the NOTIFY=SUCCESS,FAILURE,DELAY option in the SMTP MAIL FROM command. Example: MAIL FROM:<sender@example.com> NOTIFY=SUCCESS,FAILURE,DELAY ✅ Benefits of this feature: Allow professional users to confirm email delivery at the SMTP server level Automatically receive a notification if a message fails to deliver or is delayed Align Thunderbird’s features with other clients like Outlook that already provide this functionality Ideally, the feature should: Allow users to enable/disable the DSN request per message in the compose window Provide a global setting per account to enable DSN by default Thank you for considering this suggestion, which would enhance Thunderbird's professional capabilities.

Hi, I think it would be great if RSS feeds were added to the Applications menu in Firefox > Settings > General > Applications. Users should be able to select an RSS feed reader (or extension) in the "Action" menu so that opening an RSS feed link automatically imports it into the user's RSS reader of choice. Bonus: Allow advanced users to modify the entries in the Application menu by letting us add mime types and associated applications to handle those mime types. This would enable users to have more control over which applications handle which mime types. Thank you for your consideration!

Hi, I just thought it'd be a useful option to have where each Bookmark Folder can have it's contained Bookmarks open automatically in a particular, user selected, Container type. This option could be displayed when 'Editing' a Folder.

Just a matter of convenience... I believe on a large screen it makes more sense to have fresher tabs closer to the top, the most active area of the browser (all the controls are there), as less eye movement between them is required.
