I want to get rid of them because I want to press ↑ on my keyboard to quickly get to the last item on the result list, but don’t want to have to cycle through the search icons.

None of the solutions I found online worked, so I thought I might give it a try here.

I held off on Windows 10 for as long as I could until my job required it. Now this nonsense. I hope this isn't the start of them joining on the web DRM bandwagon.

I'm looking for something like the tab stacking from Vivaldi or just the way chrome handles tab groups.

I've tried simple tab groups before but it was occasionally a bit janky and I was looking for a different UI implementation. Not really keen on using a sidebar either and the majority of extensions I found all seemed to be using the sidebar.

Single videos(Not belonging to a playlist) and the first video of any playlist loads fine, but subsequent videos never load.

I am using firefox rpm package with ublock origin with default configurations on my fedora 38.

My icons used to actually show the logo of the website, and now it just shows the lame default ones. How do I change this?

I want to disable offline auto-completion for facebook.com, bbc.com and other 'popular' sites on android.

I found the lists of domains were added with this commit https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-android/commit/65fdbf4696a but I cannot find a suitable about:config option to disable this feature.

Vivaldi (and Edge) have this absolutely wonderful capability that allows me to split one tab into two or four at the same time.

At least in my workflow it's quite useful because I usually work with several tabs open and sometimes two related tabs (say, a document I'm reading and a document I'm replying to according to that one), I know that I can perfectly have another Firefox window open next to it and fulfill that function, but I wish I could do it directly from Firefox.

Does anyone know of an add-on that fulfills this purpose? Or maybe a dev who is developing it?

Finally migrated back to Firefox today after a multi year user of Chrome.

What pushed me over the edge? Most of my app icons (keep, pulse, calender, whatsapp) stopped opening in their own windows again.

I had to install the PWA extension in Firefox to get that working again, and it's going to be a slight hassle having to copy and paste URLs from all those windows, but I'm tired of fixing the task bar icons.

Could've gone to Edge since it would work out of the box, but I like Firefox. (except for no native PWA support.)

Edit: found I can right click links in the PWA instances and use the send to other device option to open them in my main Firefox window.

As shown below, it appears that all Firefox tabs are just named "Firefox" within the volume mixer. This doesn't exactly make differentiating them very easy. Is it possible to make the volume mixer show the names of the tabs instead? If not, is there any feature in the works for this that anyone may be aware of?

I don't necessaril need a tab bar - though it'd be nice - but something like Ctrl+W to close a tab or Ctrl+T to open a new one. Normal keyboard shortcuts so I don't have to finger the screen all the time.

Is that possible?

I find i get logged out of sites a ton on Firefox on iOS after very little time

Is there any setting or something I could do to change this? Or is it just a bug/intentional feature?

I switched back to firefox last week because I wanted to get away from Chromium. I was previously using Brave.

I have been having a MULTITUDE of issues with FF this week, and if I can't figure out how to resolve them I'm going back to Brave. I've tried everything I can think to do to fix it, and nothing has worked. I've never seen any of these issues on any other browsers, this is 100% a firefox problem.

I'm on the latest build of FF on Windows 10 and have the following plugins:

  • Bitwarden
  • UBlockOrigin
  • Simple Login
  • Multi-account Containers
  • ProtonVPN
  • Old Reddit Redirect
  • RES
  • Enhancer for Youtube

The issues I'm having:

  1. Occasionally FF just hangs, won't respond to inputs, and the only way to recover it is to kill the process via control panel. When FF crashes like this I NEVER see the crash reporter, it's like FF thinks nothing happened and everything is fine.
  2. Sometimes my tabs just don't work. Like, I'll open a tab, type something in to search it, and it just hangs. I had this problem for YEARS when FF was my daily browser before switching to brave 2 years back because it got too annoying. This issue is COMPLETELY RANDOM, and happens within 1 minute of making a new tab- sometimes it will happen when I first try to navigate anywhere inside the new tab, sometimes it happens after I'm in a website.
  3. Sometimes FF refuses to start. I'll turn the computer on, click FF, and nothing will happen- then I'll go into control panel, kill the FF process, and try again until it works- usually when I do this the browser crashes at least once when it starts.

I can't make any sense of why this browser is so unstable for me, but it is SIGNIFICANTLY worse than it was last time I abandoned FF. I actually have FEWER addons than I did when I used FF as my daily driver before. If I can't figure this out this time I'm just not going to look back.

I have tried:

  1. Safe mode. This seems to fix it for a bit, but eventually either tabs stop working or the browser crashes. I'm pretty confident this is NOT an issue with any of my plugins- I'm using either official FF ones (multi-account containers) or very reputable plugins from good sources.
  2. Turning on/off hardware acceleration. This has no impact whatsoever
  3. I have repeatedly deleted all cookies, history, and cache, and reset the startup cache.
  4. Clean install FF
  5. Refresh FF
  6. Last time I tried to fix FF before switching to Brave, I found that having the FF Profiler running AT ALL TIMES actually seemed to make things a little bit better- but the profiler never once turned up anything useful.

I'm at my wits end here. I really want to be able to move off of chromium but FF is so incredibly annoying to use in its current state that I simply can't do that until I find fixes to these issues. Has anyone here got any clue what else I can do to try to diagnose this?

I'm sure that it can be useful for a lot of people but for me magnifier's popup (on android) always getting in a way and makes text selection so much harder.

Is there any way to disable this feature, any entry in about:config for that, I'd like to turn it off browser wise?


Thanks @phorq@lemmy.ml, solution:

  • about:config
  • layout.accessiblecaret.magnifier.enabled
  • false

This is one of the small UX items that I feel would improve FF on MacOS. The shift when moving the cursor to the menu bar sometimes makes me miss click on a tab.

Today I noticed that in the Page Info --> Permissions tab (which you access through padlock --> Connection secure --> More information beside a page's URL) there is an Override keyboard shortcuts permission setting, with default set to "Allow". Interesting, because some sites use shortcuts that I'd rather avoid.

I checked the Settings, but I see no entry to set the default to "Block". Is there some entry in about:config for this?

Cheers!

Sidebar switcher allows users to access Bookmarks, History and Synced Tabs panels easily, quickly switch between them, move the sidebar to another side of the browser window, or close the sidebar.

It is now possible to copy any file from your operating system and paste it into Firefox.

You asked, and we listened! The volume slider is now available in Picture-in-Picture.

The keyboard shortcut to reopen closed tabs (command + shift + t) now reopens last closed tab or last closed window, in the order items were closed.
