TL;DR: On the November 2025 Mozilla Support Community call, Mozilla provided updates on the recent controversy from the Japanese Support Mozilla community quitting over AI. During the call, Mozilla doubled down on AI, confirming that volunteers would be unable to disable AI translations across the entire Mozilla knowledge-base, with the American English version of articles serving as the blessed, canonical version. Locale specific contributions will be overwritten (by design) by AI.

"It’s safe to say that the people who volunteered to “shape” the initiative want it dead and buried. Of the 52 responses at the time of writing, all rejected the idea and asked Mozilla to stop shoving AI features into Firefox."

Now, we’re excited to invite you to help shape the work on our next innovation: an AI Window. It’s a new, intelligent and user-controlled space we’re building in Firefox that lets you chat with an AI assistant and get help while you browse, all on your terms. Completely opt-in, you have full control, and if you try it and find it’s not for you, you can choose to switch it off.

Firefox 145 release binaries are now available. Most notable with this release is what's not there: the 32-bit Linux builds are no more.

Most notable with Firefox 145.0 is 32-bit Linux support being dropped. Firefox 144 and Firefox 140 ESR are the last series with 32-bit Linux support so Mozilla can focus solely on 64-bit.

"Mozilla has been adding in llm & ai related features to Firefox for a while, enabling them by default without asking the user... The main problem with this is users are having this forced on them with no gui option to disable these features."

Article contains instructions for disabling the LLM through about:config.

Increasingly, businesses, schools, and government institutions deploy Firefox at scale for security, resilience, and data sovereignty. Organizations have fine-grained administrative and orchestration control of the browser’s behavior using policies with Firefox and the Extended Support Release (ESR). Today, we’re opening early access to Firefox Support for Organizations, a new program that begins operation in January 2026.

The SUMO Japanese team quits en masse, accusing Mozilla’s AI system of erasing years of community translation work.

The Japanese branch of Mozilla’s Support Mozilla (SUMO) community—responsible for localizing and maintaining Japanese-language support documentation for Firefox and other Mozilla products (consisting of Japanese native speakers)—has officially disbanded after more than two decades of voluntary work.

This is something I wanted but propriety meant I didn't ever make a bug for it, but boy I'm glad it's here. Fantastic landing!

Hi everyone, I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I’m honestly a bit exhausted trying to figure this out.

I’m looking for a way to access the curated articles that #Firefox(France) shows on the new tab page — specifically the ones from earlier this week or previous days. I’ve saved a few screenshots manually, but I’d love to find a proper method to archive or revisit them.

From what I can tell, the articles aren’t personalized — they seem to be selected daily for all users in France. The settings mention something like “Premium content selected by the Firefox family of products”, which makes me think there’s a team or system behind it.

Thanks in advance, and sorry if this is a bit messy — I’m just trying to find any solution at this point.

@firefox Firefox once again re-enabled this stupid-ass RAM-hogging bullshit "use AI to suggest tabs and a name for tab groups" setting even though I keep disabling it. Stop shitting up the last decent browser goddamnit
