I spend a few hours on many days per week as a volunteer on SUMO, and I daily interact with users who are trying to import their profile when installing version 102. Being new to it, they do not realize that there is a nice new import feature - because it is not visible on the first screen they see. The assumption is that people starting Thunderbird want to first set up a profile, but many already have one. Placing a link here, in addition to the place where it already is, would be a boon to simplify the process of transferring profiles from one PC to another. This would also respect the intended workflow of users; the Email Wizard is fine for new users, but returning and upgrading users are the majority. ... View more

This feature is available for HTML composition, but all it does is insert plain text character and is equally valuable for plain text composition. Also, since it appear on one composition window, I believe users expect that it will be there on plain text compositions. My hope is this is a small item, since the majority of the code already exists. Thanks for listening. ... View more

(Was advised to submit here after submitting feedback report to Mozilla, feature can only currently be implemented from behind flags in beta branch)    We need a port of the Firefox on Windows Settings (namely to select Proxy/DoH/SOCKS settings in App that would otherwise be available on PC Browsing)  I just want to be able to use OpenDNS for this browser. Similar to how the Chrome-Like Apps or beta flags do, but it's excessively difficult to do so on Firefox's Mobile Apps... 😢          ... View more

Currently the Snipping Tool suggest either "Copy" or "Download" after I make a selection. Would it be a difficult thing to add "Print" as a third option? At the moment, to print something you have snipped, it has to be pasted into some other program and then run through that program's print system. I understand quite a few people would be using the snipping tool to just put the image elsewhere, but I don't think I would be the only one who would like to send the "snip" straight to the printer dialogue. I am aware that this functionality is also not available using the Print Screen keyboard button, and I am also confused as to why this doesn't just "print the screen" as it seems to say it will. ...

Surely like me, many would like to have the possibility to choose between two options; 1 - Show More Bookmarks. 2 - Add More Marker Bars. It is better to have bookmarks visible and more accessible in a bar than clicking to search in a dropdown menu.

Es mejor tener visible y mas accesible los marcadores en una barra que haciendo clic para buscar en un menú desplegable. ... View more

Mouse is still a king on the desktop. But for some strange reason, with every new release, Firefox UI is less and less suitable for usage with mouse. Just to name a few recent issues: Hiding scrolls, that a hard to find and grab, when you need them Huge tabs and other UI elements. They are wasting screen space and do not add any additional comfort. Browser is not friendly to a tipical mouse gestures. For example you need to click on an item in main menu, instead of just hovering over it. Tab overflow menu does not support drag and drop. Menus have lost icons, which have been a great way to speed up navigation. All of that should be fixed in default UI behavior, and touch friendly features moved to some special UI mode. ...

I recently imported my bookmarks from a previous Firefox install, and the icons were all a grey globe icon. When I clicked on them and used the bookmark link for a while, the icon generally changes to something linked to the webpage (such as an Excel icon, or Sharepoint icon). It would be better if the icons populate themselves without me having to individually click on them all. ... View more

Thunderbird should have Similar kind of Firefox Account, Due to Which All Account Passwords, Settings, Email Filters, Add-ons & Extension, Custom Settings etc. etc. saved and can be used on another PC by Just Login.

Anzahl der gelesenen/aller Nachrichten in einem Ordner. Ich möchte anregen, dass hinter JEDEM(!) Ordner einfach (gleich rechts vom Ordnername) eine Zahl stehen sollte, wieviel Nachrichten da in dem Ordner drin sind. Grund: Wenn die Zahl NULL ist, braucht man den Ordner nicht mehr kontrollieren. Diese Funktion vermisse ich sehr, seit dem Umstieg von TheBat auf Thunderbird. _____________________________________________________________________________ English: Please show the number of all messages in a folder simply behind the folder. I would like to suggest that behind each folder should simply be a number, how many messages there are in the folder. Reason: If the number is ZERO, you don't need to check the folder anymore. I miss this function very much, since the switch from TheBat to Thunderbird. _____________________________________________________________________________ Spain: Número de mensajes leídos/todos en una carpeta. Me gustaría sugerir que detrás de cada carpeta haya simplemente un número que indique cuántos mensajes hay en esa carpeta. Razón: Si el número es CERO, ya no es necesario comprobar la carpeta. Echo mucho de menos esta función desde que me cambié de TheBat a Thunderbird. _____________________________________________________________________________ French: Nombre de messages lus/tous les messages dans un dossier. J'aimerais suggérer que chaque dossier soit simplement suivi d'un chiffre indiquant le nombre de messages qu'il contient. Raison : Si le nombre est NULL, il n'est plus nécessaire de contrôler le dossier. Cette fonction me manque beaucoup depuis que je suis passé de TheBat à Thunderbird. ... View more

The "quick peek" feature in full screen mode is useful: when hovering the mouse on the top edge of screen in full screen mode, tab bar and address bar will pop up to allow you to change tabs, enter new address, interact with extensions, etc. full screen mode in Firefox However, the transition of the popped-up bars is extremely unnatural. The entire webpage move down without any animation to clear some space for top bars. And it will suddenly move up when you exit top-hovering. Forcing users to watch the webpage jumping back and forth simply because they what to peek the bars is not a very good idea. Actually, please do not change how the webpage is displayed unless the user intended to do so. top hovering in full screen modeA better way of handling this is to keep the webpage still and display the top bars over the web content when hovering, ether with transition animation or not. Of course, the scroll bar still needs to be shortened and updated. I believe this modification can greatly improve the user experience in full screen mode. Hope we can see this in future updates. ...

Currently for a file being downloaded (incomplete, in-progress download), Firefox does not show the link or domain name from where the file is downloading. I would like to see this more easily. Firefox currently offers the following: 1) Right-click -> Copy download link (or Go to download page). This can be pasted elsewhere to view but that is unpleasant. 2) After a download completes, the top-level domain name (TLD) is shown in the status line for the file in the Downloads library between the size and completion time. For comparison, Chrome's Downloads manager shows the full download link for each file (completed or not). This link also works like a normal web link which is nice for consistency/discoverability, but not directly relevant to this suggestion. For Firefox, showing the full link makes sense if a new status line is added for it (like Chrome). Otherwise, perhaps show the TLD after a separator after the progress text (same as completed downloads). Another possibility could be a tooltip mouseover but this isn't as useful. (Incidentally, Chrome eschews tooltips in the manager page.) Note: my examples are from Windows. ... View more

I was a long-time desktop (Linux) Thunderbird user, but eventually became frustrated with its inability to automatically sync my contacts with my phone.  I use Outlook.com, but this suggestion equally applies to those who use GMail for contacts storage. I solved my problem by switching to Evolution.  I just enter my email accounts via the "Online Accounts" application and then Evolution seems to make everything work automatically.  I wish Thunderbird could do this too, as I prefer its interface. ...

I would like to be able to have a second customizable toolbar where I could have things such as the back and forward arrows, a share button, and the refresh button easily to hand within one press. Something like the way Edge on Android has implemented it, with the main bar with the URL at the top, and the second bar at the bottom, would be great. ... View more

Firefox for Android has the reader mode (see screenshot below) but Firefox Focus lacks this feature. For those of us who love using Firefox Focus, adding the reader button would add a lot of value to the experience, making certain websites much more readable. Since we already have the code for Firefox mobile, I would hope it would be relatively easy to bring the same feature to Firefox Focus. ... View more
