Firefox containers are one of the browser’s most valuable privacy features, allowing users to isolate cookies, storage, and identities between different contexts. However, the built-in AI chatbot sidebar currently does not appear to run within a container context. This means users cannot isolate AI providers (such as ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) the same way they can isolate normal websites. It would be great if Firefox allowed users to select a container for the AI sidebar, or if the sidebar automatically ran in a dedicated container (e.g., an “AI” container). Potential benefits Better privacy isolation between AI providers and normal browsing Ability to separate different AI services into different containers Consistency with Firefox’s container-based privacy model More control for privacy-focused users Real-world use case I use containers to separate work, personal accounts, and AI tools. Being able to run the AI sidebar in an “AI” container would prevent AI providers from sharing the same cookie context as normal browsing, while still keeping the convenience of the sidebar. Thanks for continuing to build privacy-respecting AI features into Firefox! ... View more

When we close a tab, we are then defaulted to land on the tab right to it (in horizontal tabs mode) and tab underneath it (in vertical tabs mode) instead of the tab that we were on before. This behavior is in contrast with other browsers and is breaking the user experience. Please look into this. Sometimes when we open a new tab and then closes it we are then defaulted to land on the sleeping tab right or underneath it instead of the active tab that we opened the new one from. This is really annoying. I have to then unload the sleeping tab and then click again to land on the tab that I was on before. ... View more

We are now immersed in a constant distraction due to social media. The request is to create a Tab Timer. That is, the system should allow me to schedule the time I spend opening certain pages or social networks. For example: Tab Timer webpage 1 | Time allowed: 10 minutes | Reactivates every 1 hour webpage 2 | Time allowed: 10 minutes | Reactivates every 2 hours webpage 3 | Time allowed: 10 min | Reactivates every 3 hours In this way, when I open a "webpage 1" tab, a 10-minute timer appears. When that time expires, the tab freezes until I can use it again from where I left off in 1 hour. Similarly, with "webpage 3", I open a tab and 10 minutes are activated to perform an activity or post something. And it reactivates for another 10 minutes after 3 hours. It's like having the ability to give automatic timers to pages that I register as pages to be timed. Design - In any tab, right click, open secondary menu. Create an Item call "Tab Timer" when you click on it appears 3 numbers like. 5 min - 10 min -15 min. If you choose 5 min the domain of the web grab and configure with 5 min, timer. When the time runs out. Appears a window for configure How often do you want to use those 5 minutes? And make your choose Every hour, every 2 hours, every 3 hours.  - In Preference Menu, General, Tabs, Create a Tab Timer Item. Here you can add a table with 3 columns. Webpages, time allowed, reactivation. Webpage can be added by typing or by using "Tab Timer" item in secondary menu of each tab. Time Allowed can be added by typing sec, min, hours. Or by using the method explained above. And the same with Reactivate. So with this easy control of time we have a very simple tool for be more productive.  Thanks and I hope you can develop something like this. ... View more

Dear Mozilla Firefox Team, My name is Mohamed Yassine Mathlouthi, and I am reaching out to share a small independent game project that I believe could be an interesting candidate for a browser offline experience. The game is called Undulo, a sci-fi action platformer where players control a fearless fox warrior battling alien enemies across floating planets, cosmic debris, and the ruins of a mysterious starship. The project was created in one month for the GitHub Game Off 2025 game jam using the Godot Engine. Undulo is already available online and open-source: Play the game: https://crisp-lad.itch.io/undulo GitHub repository: https://github.com/Foxy-Trot-Games Given that several browsers include small built-in games for offline moments, I wondered if a lightweight browser version of Undulo could potentially be considered for a similar purpose within Firefox. Since the game is built with Godot, it can be exported to HTML5 and run directly in the browser. Our small development team would be happy to adapt or optimize the game if such a collaboration were of interest. Development Team – Foxy Trot Games • Crisp_Lad – Team Lead & Programmer • Koallary – Level Design & Artist • Screen – Programmer • ClownManGuy – Animator & Artist • Foks – Music Designer Thank you for your time and for the incredible work you do on Firefox and open web technologies. I would be grateful for any feedback or guidance regarding this idea. Best regards, Mohamed Yassine Mathlouthi ... View more

Instead of forcing AI stuff down your users throats, just put it into an add-on that users can install on the browser if they want it. If it's as great as you seem to believe, then what's the problem with making it opt-in by default instead of having to opt-out? ... View more

I love the new Firefox Home interface and its options to customize it. In my opinion, a really great addition, would be to implement dynamic wallpapers.  By dynamic wallpaper I mean a rotating wallpaper that changes every X time (maybe every hour or a configurable time) so it isn't the same one all the time. I'd say competitors like Chrome already have this option built in.  In Firefox there are extensions that provide this feature but I'd really like it to be standard. ... View more

To the Mozilla Development Team, As someone who has been navigating the web since 1998 and comes from a hardware background, I am well aware of the argument that a massive browsing history database can theoretically slow down a system. However, the current way Firefox forcibly handles history retention is unacceptable for power users. I have been using Firefox as my primary browser since October 2017. Everything worked perfectly until late December 2022, when Firefox suddenly began aggressively and automatically deleting my old history. I have tried every `about:config` modification available, and absolutely nothing stops this forced pruning. The technical root cause is clear: the `places.sqlite` file appears to be tightly restricted, functioning with a hard cap around 80MB. Once the history data overflows this limit (much like an AI's context window overflowing), an aggressive auto-cleanup routine is triggered. Currently, my maximum retention is capped at about 6.5 years (my oldest surviving record is from March 22, 2019, which is nearing the chopping block). Even worse, simply attempting to interact with or view history older than 6 months triggers this deletion process almost 100% of the time. **What Power Users Require:** We need an absolute guarantee for our data. Specifically, a feature that allows users to command the browser to keep all history after a specific date (e.g., "August 20, 2019") **FOREVER**, under any circumstances. If Mozilla is worried about performance, simply display a warning prompt—but leave the final decision and consequence to the user. Furthermore, this issue highlights two major gaps compared to other browsers: **1. Lack of a "Keep History Forever" Option:** Browsers like Vivaldi natively offer a simple toggle to save history "Forever" without arbitrarily destroying data. There is no logical reason Firefox cannot offer the same basic right to data retention. **2. Absence of Analytical Extensions:** The Chromium ecosystem benefits from powerful tools like "History Trends Unlimited." We strongly request Mozilla to officially support porting this extension to Firefox, or to build equivalent native data management and export tools. Finally, let's put the "performance degradation" excuse to rest. In about a year, architectures like Intel's "Nova Lake" will hit the market with up to 52 cores. It is completely absurd to restrict user data control out of fear that a slightly larger SQLite database will drag down modern computing hardware. Please give users back true ownership and control over their browsing history. Thank you. ... View more

The 'Create Strong Password' feature in the Firefox Password Manager is an excellent feature, and extremely useful. Occasionally, however, on some websites whatever mechanism that invokes the Create Strong Password widget fails to recognize that you are in fact creating a new password. Firefox does recognize, upon login, that a credential has been created and offers to save that credential, so I believe it may just be perhaps a mislabeled form or field, which you obviously cannot control. In this instance however, the user must supply their own unique password, which is probably not as secure as one generated through the Create Strong Password widget.  I believe it would be beneficial to create a means of invoking the Create Strong Password feature on demand, should Firefox be unable to trigger automatically. I don't believe this is currently possible. If I am wrong about this, please feel free to correct me. ... View more

In a recent Firefox iOS update the view of bookmarks has been changed to show the full bookmark name, as opposed to the previous view which showed as much of the name as the screen display would allow and then an ellipsis would denote that there was more hidden. As feedback, I request that it be put back to the previous view which showed the bookmark name all in one condensed line, or at least there be an option to chose the desired layout. The new layout showing the full bookmark name means individual bookmarks now take up a lot of space and clog up my screen and I have to scroll down a painful amount to navigate through my bookmarks, where previously this was much quicker. I have a lot of bookmarks and am using a phone screen so navigating through them now is awful. Showing the full name also doesn’t really show any useful information as a lot of websites by default when you bookmark them append a lot of information, which I don’t need to see when navigating through my bookmarks - if I wanted to see the full name then the option of before to go into the bookmark to edit and view the full name was fine.  ...

Time has passed, and you, Firefox-Mozilla, continue to ignore a very serious situation. So, here's what I'll say. I'll be honest with you. I find the round design so difficult to perceive and impractical in everyday life that it may force me to stop using Firefox. Because the Firefox user interface has always been so characteristic, with its RECTANGULAR design with an appropriate level of rounding. Now it's just a typical cheap “design like everyone else's.” And don't tell me that this is how you “integrate” the Firefox design into today's "leading operating systems" like Windows & Mac (By the way, I have serious questions about the future of Windows). Don't! Just give us the option to configure the LEVEL OF ROUNDING in the settings. Every time I open Firefox, the rounded tabs kill me. It's unbearably painful, inconvenient, and impractical. Your “new” round design really sticks out from the overall aesthetics of Firefox. Here's my proof: when you open the “Application Menu,” you see two completely different designs. Your website is even "rectangular", guys! It's rectangular with neat edges, and no one is pointing fingers or complaining about it! Just give users the option to customize the roundness of the design. Because human psychology and practice tell us that "a rectangle is much more reliable and convenient than a circle." Thank you for your understanding. ... View more

Hello, I feel like the JSON filtering behavior changed within the last few weeks. I use the "Filter JSON" bar a lot and it used to keep nested nodes expanded if I opened them during a filter. This was helpful so that I could clear the filter, scroll down to the expanded node I opened from the search, and look at the other fields in that object. But now, when I clear the filter, everything is collapsed/the way I left it before I ran the filter, and I have to manually find and expand the nested object I was looking for manually. I'm not sure why this behavior changed, but it would be nice if it could be brought back. Thank you! ... View more

Firefox users should have the ability to curate for themselves what media organizations are allowed a spot on their home screen "recommended stories". As the stories are already sectioned into different topics/interests, this could be even be done on a fairly granular level. Example: block "Politics" stories from media company X, while you still have "Sports" stories allowed from the same company. It is not clear how the stories are "curated by Mozilla", what standards they apply, or what the financial relationships are with the media organizations that are featured. It is conspicuously opaque. I suggest giving users more control/transparency. ... View more
