Currently trying to find a solution to my firefox browser not responding to the errors in my text. Spell checkign seems to be unavailable on all pages.

I am on the latest Version 144.0.2 (64-bit), have box checked "Check Your Spelling" and have the langauge selected to UK GB English.

Also tried about:config in address bar. Then checked layout.spellcheckDefault and the results are default 2, true and true. I adjusted this number from 1 as directed on a previous help ticket.

Can anyone assist me?

I despise ai in every use and way with a passion. Now, it gets spammed everywhere on this browser, with no apparent way to disable and/or remove that filth. I don't want to see it, ever! Why is it even on by default??? I don't want "chatbots", "Ai assistants" or any of that shit at all.

I am getting exhausted with Firefox changing my configurations when updating. I always turn off automatic update for all software I use. I even turn off Windows updates. These updates always break something I regularly use and offer me little if anything that improves my experience.

Recently, the update modified my configurations to allow automatic updating. So I had to turn that off. A recent update removed the simple "!gm" shortcut to Google Maps. I had to create a new shortcut for Google Maps so I could type into the URL bar something like "!gm Missouri" to get the map to display. It wasn't displaying before this and returned search results like "General Motors". Ugh.

Can't Firefox stop updating my configurations and making life difficult for me?

I have strong ethical objections to the current generation of LLMs, and really strongly dislike contributing to Google's massive monopoly on most internet spaces, hence my using Firefox instead of Chrome. I was disheartened by the addition of an AI label to Firefox, and really would love to be able to continue using a good browser that doesn't shove AI slop down my throat. If the integration of LLMs to Firefox is going to continue, I wanted to ensure there will at least be some way to remove it from my browser

I am seriously concerned about the upcoming use of AI in Mozilla Firefox. The only reason I use Firefox is because it is one of the few remaining widely compatible browsers that allow me to switch off any AI features. Generative AI is needlessly wasteful and absolutely pointless. Is there any way to prevent this from being forcibly added to Firefox?

Look, as previous users have mentioned, many of us use Firefox because it isn't a bloated AI crapshoot. Syncing across devices and having a pretty skin on is nice, but I'm getting tired of having to manually disable the current AI crap just so I can do some basic browsing in peace, and if this browser adds any more of that tripe I'll be done. I don't want to be, I've enjoyed this browser since it was launched and until recently it's been good to me. But if I have to do any more in-system tinkering I'll go back to Safari because somehow we've ended up in a timeline where that of all browsers is coming up top :|

Is there a way to turn off the “shake for AI summary” function on IOS? It doesn’t add anything to my experience, and more often than not, I end up accidentally shaking my phone and getting a summary I didn’t ask for.

If there’s a way to completely turn off the AI features, i’d like that too I’d prefer if my browser didn’t summarize the websites I visit in a way that can be inaccurate or lie to me.

Mozilla, please just remove these features entirely. If we want AI, we can go to ChatGPT or another website, I just don’t want it added into everything I use all of a sudden.

Thanks in advance for any help. :)

This might be quite "old man yells at cloud" of me, but oh my god I am so fed up of everything putting AI in as a "feature" for no reason.

1) No one asked for this. 2) It is bad at doing whatever it is designed to do. (It's not helpful, it's not even neutrally unhelpful, it's ANTI-HELPFUL.) 3) It is always on by default, or worse, impossible to turn off.

At the very least AI features need to be off by default, because it's rubbish.

Firefox is meant to be a bastion of sanity and safety in a world of exploitative techbros trying to steal our data and trick us into making money for them. So-called "AI" goes against this. Please, Firefox, be better.

As of 20th Nov 2025, here's how to turn off AI features. Go into about:config and set all of these to false (yes, you’ll have to copy and paste them one by one):

  • browser.ml.enable
  • browser.ml.chat.enabled
  • browser.ml.chat.menu
  • browser.ml.chat.page
  • browser.ml.chat.page.footerBadge
  • browser.ml.chat.page.menuBadge
  • browser.ml.linkPreview.enabled
  • browser.ml.pageAssist.enabled
  • browser.tabs.groups.smart.enabled
  • browser.tabs.groups.smart.userEnabled
  • extensions.ml.enabled
  • browser.search.visualSearch.featureGate

in addition to nuking AI, it’ll also speed up your browsing

More of a suggestion than a question - I've been using Firefox for 20 years because of it's focus on privacy and it's lack of pushing trendy slop options (Sloptions?). Almost everyone who uses Firefox is going to be doing so because of this - It's what it's known for and is what makes it unique compared to other search engines. What is going on with the pushing of AI? At they very least make it easy to disable it, that's the bare minimum. This is such a weird shift for the company after years of differentiating itself and with a loyal user base who are using Firefox to avoid this. Why would we be here if not because Firefox is different? Please stop pushing this kind of crap!

I often use the key combination Ctrl+Alt+X in Google Docs when on different devices but it doesn't function properly when instead it brings up the AI sidebar gadget. Removing the sidebar button doesn't really help and it's annoying. So how exactly do I turn off the key combination for the sidebar?

How do I remove the pop up blocker on Firefox for certain websites? I am doing an online course and each introduction for each chapter has a short video that pops up but as soon as that happens Firefox sends a "Critical error" message then the video stops so I thinks that's happening because pop up blocker is turned on and I just dont know how to turn pop up blocker off for specific websites only like this one I am using for my study course. How can I turn the pop up blocker just for this one website so that this doesn't keep happening?
