I just learned about Tab Groups.   Reading the documentation, I envisioned them a little differently than how they actually operate.  Rather than a colored underline for all tabs in a group, the tabs would get collapsed into the Group tab (which has whatever name you specified when you created the tab group).  Then, if/when you click on that tab, all the tabs (their names) within the group are displayed below the group tab like a drop-down list (or like when you click the Bookmarks option from the menu bar).  It's kind of like how the Bookmarks drop-down menu works, but provides a shortcut and is for pages/tabs that are already open.  It would save on real estate with horizontal tabs, whereas the current implementation exacerbates it.  Vertical tabs also chew up a lot or real estate.  This new group tabbing method would save/reclaim real estate for both vertical and horizontal tab orientations while leveraging the benefits of both. ...

There's a message about only installing add-ons if you trust them, but there's no way to actually review the add-on. You can't even download it and open it in your archive manager without first installing and running it in Firefox. Add-ons have their code implicitly readable by their nature. The website should have an option to explore the files and read the contents. ... View more

I really like vertical tabs when my browser is maximised. Each time I reduce its size it is to share my screen between different apps; with this setting I would like to have horizontal tab. And I would like this behaviour to be autonomic. ... View more

Please consider adding 'Emoji' as a font flag to allow users to select a custom emoji font for displaying websites. Custom per-language font display can currently be selected in GUI via 'Preferences > General > Language and Appearance > Fonts > Advanced > Fonts for…' or through language flags in about:config. What I want to do is add an option for emoji specifically. Custom modification of the UI may be required as there isn't a serif/sans-serif/monospace distinction for the characters. At the very least we currently have the choice between colour and B/W emoji in Noto, in addition to other system default fonts. As someone who uses the custom font override, I'd like to exert a greater amount of control over emoji display. Thank you. ... View more

I believe there should be more customized features with the "right-click: send to AI." Here are the two that would help me enjoy the experience more: Settings to send prompts into a temporary chat (ChatGPT): ChatGPT offers users a way to send prompts into a temporary chat and I believe this a setting we should take advantage of. This means that your "summarize this" and "proofread" prompts won't clutter up your history if you're a frequent user of ChatGPT. If other services offer this, then this should apply to them as well. Customize the right-click menu with user prompts: We should allow users to customize the shortcut prompts to enhance the user experience. Right now the list is limited and would improve if users could create or adjust the prompts to their liking. Settings for these features should be located at the bottom of the list via the right-click window.   ... View more

Description: When using Firefox vertical tabs with the "expand on hover" feature enabled, selecting a lower tab while the sidebar is collapsed causes the tab list to scroll to the top — especially when pinned tabs are present and the total number of tabs exceeds the vertical screen height. This makes it harder to track which tab is active and breaks the user experience. Steps to Reproduce: Enable Vertical Tabs in Firefox. Enable Expand on Hover feature for the vertical tab sidebar. Pin a few tabs (e.g., 2–3). Open many tabs (more than what fits the vertical screen height). Collapse the sidebar (so only icons are shown). Click a tab located near the bottom of the list. Sidebar scrolls to the top automatically, instead of focusing the clicked tab. Expected Behavior: When a user clicks on a lower tab, the sidebar should auto-scroll or remain focused on that tab — without jumping to the top of the tab list. Actual Behavior: The sidebar scrolls all the way to the top after selecting a lower tab, hiding the selected tab from view. This behavior only occurs when pinned tabs are present and the sidebar is in collapsed mode with hover-expand active.

New Feature. I find it to be a pain to go through my cookies every several days deleting one by one that I don't want, and leaving only my data cookies that log me into certain sites that I visit often. I would love Firefox to implement an easy way to keep my favorite cookies and either manually delete all the rest, or allow Firefox (like in a private window) to delete them all upon exit.  One way this might be done would be to have a little box next to each cookie in the "Manage Data" section of the settings that you could click as to whitelist them from an all out delete. Please leave your thoughts below. Thanks! ... View more

Currently, Firefox only has the option to save a video frame as a picture. But, some people don't want to either struggle with their in-built screenshot or to save hundreds of screenshots, so, a "Copy video frame" option like in Chromium-based browsers would be welcomed. ... View more

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. ... View more

There should be an option to delete history from Firefox Sync and across all devices. Right now if I have already sync history. There's no way to delete those sync history. If I disable sync from firefox, it won't sync new history. But as soon as I login from other device and start history sync. Those old history comes back. Mozilla should implement an option that will delete those sync history from all devices including Mozilla server. ... View more

Currently, enabling Picture-in-Picture (PiP) in Firefox on iOS and iPadOS requires entering full-screen mode first. It would be more convenient and user-friendly to have a dedicated PiP button directly in the video player interface. This would allow users to instantly pop out videos into PiP mode without needing to switch to full-screen first, similar to the desktop experience. ... View more

A quite annoying "feature" of the CTRL+TAB cycling of recent tabs is that the the mouse pointer will focus the tab preview that appears, and thus making the cycling with CTRL+TAB completely illogical. Focusing a tab with the mouse pointer is FINE, but it should only happen when you actively move the mouse pointer. If the mouse pointer is just idly placed on the middle of the screen somewhere, it should not change the tab cycle focus. ... View more
