Firefox

After I noticed Firefox has removed the Pocket branding but kept the Pocket stories, I also noticed the settings screen on the homepage no longer lets you disable sponsored stories or links.

Is anyone else having an issue of the back button being greyed out after clicking a link?

has anyone noticed pages that are just ai slop popping up recently? they have low quality information and serve no purpose but to waste time.

Looking for a bookmarking app which is not self hosted, online, community focused, etc, just a simple program.

ff 138 added 'profiles'. What is the difference between the new profiles system and the old profile manager ones? It looks like the new profiles live inside a traditional profile.

I need fine grained, automated cookie controls I have tried these addons

Woke up this morning to find that Firefox Nightly has finally removed the separate navigation bar on mobile, apparently due to an overwhelmingly negative user response. But it was a feature I really enjoyed using, being the closest non-Chromium setup I could find similar to Samsung Internet, and would like to re-enable if possible.

I'm sorry to those that seen this from asklemmy comm. Didn't read the rules. Reposting here.

Latest update to LibreWolf changed it's user agent string and it's causing websites to freak out. For example amazon will default you to a mobile website and Youtube music is having issues. To make matters worse if you try to download an extension to change the user agent string, it won't let you and tell you to download Firefox. You'll need to manually override the user agent string by going into about:config. You'll need to add general.useragent.override string into config.

The 12 step 2 factor login process 4 times a day really pisses me off. ESPECIALLY that last screen where you are logged in but it makes you press another NEXT as punishment for not staying logged in all the time.

I find Firefox Translator doesn't pick up a lot of pages. The location bar button doesn't appear.

I can search in the bookmarks section and see some bookmarks that I want to remove, but can't select them while in the bookmark search results.

I disable animations either through Gnome's accessibility setting or KDE's slider to instant. I find that Gnome's animations are just too slow by default and KDE's tend to be janky. So while I want my window manager to have instant animations, I don't need my applications to do so.

Edit: I found it it occurred somehow when remapping modifiers with my keyd configuration. I remapped it to CTRL ALT ] and it works now.

This bug is driving me crazy. Watching videos in fullscreen does not inhibit the screensaver/sleep settings on Linux. Whenever I try to stream a movie in fullscreen, my screensaver kicks in at the appointed time, as if I'm just idle.

Searched the net about it, but most of the articles on List all tabs seems to be on how to remove it

I use Firefox (LibreWolf with Mozilla sync) on multiple devices. To have my tabs, extensions and history easy available I use Mozilla for syncing that data.

One of the first things i learned about Firefox is that extensions don't work on an iPhone, they're simply not available. I've been using Firefox since forever both on pc and mobile. In the past few days, after the TOS fiasco, i've been looking around for another browser for my iPhone and i stumbled upon Orion by Kagi and to my surprise they let you install extensions from the official Firefox add-ons page and they work, too. I've always read that the app for iOS was just a "reskin" of Safari but is actually true? Are they just being lazy not to allow extensions on iOS? Did Apple put a gun on their heads and told them not to do that?

I didn't find many comparisons between the two let alone a recent one. So they're both packages for changing Firefox prefs for better performance and or privacy. I'm interested in applying them to Zen Browser. Can you provide detailed comparisons and if I should you use both?

Having switched to Zen Browser, something I miss with Firefox was its stability. I find myself looking up Zen browser bugs and workarounds too much. This is the 2nd or 3rd time I'm downgrading Zen versions due to a bug in the stable version, I never had to do so during my years on Firefox. Devs on Github making an app on their free time have can't spend as long on QA as a multi-mullion dollar organization.

The other day I was using firefox on a public. On my computer creating a new tab creates a blank tab, but this one it showed 'Suggested by Firefox'. One of the links was interesting, so I clicked on it. Would this be considered user data that would be sold? Some clarification from Mozilla about what constitutes selling user data would be great.

It seems like cookies inside my containers have been deleted after the update. Is anyone experiencing the same issue?

I've had this for quite a while, before switching back to Proton from tuta. Proton of course has aliases, which would make Relay redundant, but Relay also gives you a phone mask which is very helpful to have and Proton doesn't yet offer this.
