There is (IMHO) some missing functionality / unwanted feature or call it what you like (bug?).
History -> Manage History
select e.g. Last 7 days, right click on Name and select at least two attributes (you can choose from: Tags, Location,Most Recent Visit, Added and Last Modified)
Select the first entry of the list, all displayed fields are selected/highlighted.
Copy (either with the menu or with Ctrl-C) and paste it in your favourite text editor.
Why is only the URL copied? Other fields were also highlighted. Why are they not included?
This is WYSINWYG (what you see is not what you get).
It is possible to export bookmarks as an html file, so why is this not possible with history?
OK, it is possible to query the sqlite3 database directly to get some history info but it's a bit cumbersome.
To do so,
copy the sqlite (places.sqlite) database to some safe place then open the database (with 'sqlite3 places.sqlite') get the history info you are interested in with a sqlite query, e.g. select title,visit_count,site_name,url,description,last_visit_date from moz_places where url like '%support%';
But there is no simple (AFAIK) way to convert 'last_visit_date' (an integer) to something human readable.
So either include the whole selection when something is copied (WYSIWYG) or provide export history as an html file.
Any suggestions?
TIA

Site (https://www.pinerolo.news/
The animated images of the articles are loaded once every 3. On Chrome Android I have no problem.
I solve it manually by resizing the page, so they load.
Where could the problem be? In the animation of their site? Do you have any advice on a fix?

Hello,
I'm developing a web application. Yesterday I could access it with http://localhost:8000, then, I implemented https and it worked too. Today I needed to use http again for my tests, but everytime I type http://localhost:8000, Firefox changes it to https://localhost:8000.
I already tried to clear everything in the history, even the cookies, but it didn't work.
What should I do?
Also, could you fix this bug? I've found articles from 5 years ago reporting this issue, but the bug hasn't been fixed yet

I don’t understand what Firefox is doing. For example, I used to start typing the first few letters of “weather.com”, which I visit pretty much daily, and it would auto fill “weather.com”. Now it auto fills every time with http://www.weatherbase.com/. I don’t know where that came from. Similarly, I used to type the first few letters of “duckduckgo.com” and it would bring up “duckduckgo.com”. Now it brings up a magnifying glass below the url with “Search with duckduckgo”. I am thinking it might be best if I can start over, i.e. clear out any information it’s saved about where it thinks I want to go, and start remembering the sites I am entering now.

After updating to the current version of my OS(listed below) I can no longer drag a tab to detach it from the firefox window. Doing so drags a preview of the tab, but it is never separated from the current window. I can drag it to an already existing window to move tabs from one window to another, but not to create a new window from a single tab.

Firefox's website appearance settings include a setting to force a light theme, force a dark theme, or to have sites automatically adapt to the theme of the browser. I feel that's not exactly what I want. I don't want the browser's theme to have anything to do with themes of the sites I'm viewing, nor to force light or dark. I think I'd rather just use the site's default, or if not that, set a theme on the site itself. Is there any way for Firefox to just not meddle in a site's theming at all?
I kinda just don't want any connection between the theme of my operating system, the theme of my browser, or either of those and the theme of websites, and none to force a theme on any of the others. I'm not sure why that seems so desirable nowadays, but I don't want it.

I need to go over the head of the Mozilla Triage manager who has left https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1406865 open without a resolution for **seven years**. How do I do that? This is a bug reported in Firefox 57 and **still** not fixed in Firefox 125. I cannot find any support category anywhere in the Mozilla website that covers appealing a decision by one of their employees. The last comment from this uncooperative indivisual is "But given we support it on macOS and Windows yeah, it seems not very objectionable." Who is this **clerk** to override the fact that a number of customers very much find this "objectionable". I cannot find anything on https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/contact/ that addresses this issue. I cannot find even a surface mail address for Mozilla. For example my complaint has nothing to do with any of the following:
I’m having problems with using Firefox I want to donate to Mozilla I have questions about using Mozilla’s trademarks I’d like to report misuse of a Mozilla trademark I want to hold an event in a Mozilla space I want Mozilla to sponsor my event I’d like permission to use a Mozilla logo I’m interested in Pocket’s sponsored content on Firefox I’m a member of the Press and have a question for Mozilla
Yes I am having a problem with Firefox, but the clerk responsible has, through sitting on this issue for **seven years**, basically told the entire community that he doesn't give a reservoir.
In particular I feel this unacceptable behaviour should be brought to the attention of senior management, but there are no contacts for anybody in senior management.

Sorry to have this same issue again, knowing full well it can happen after finding this some years ago (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1319823), I tried to carefully connect two older PC devices back to firefox sync, however on one I managed to enable sync before disconnecting my profile (it seemed as if reconnecting sync temporarily was the only way to disconnect a profile from firefox's UI - I should have been more careful and removed the profile from the filesystem level): at which point I polluted the sync server.
I've noticed that `about:sync` has an option under bookmarks/engine actions 'wipe bookmarks', which sounds exactly what I need, and if I watch what happens once pressed it does the right thing and repopulates the sever with the 'correct' PC's bookmark set (when run from that PC), however it also says 'other devices will act like a reset', which i'm finding NOT to be the case: eventually one of my other device repollutes the server with bad bookmarks which propogate.
I'm thinking the culprits are my phones, If I wipe and do a sync on a phone, my phone's bookmarks stay polluted. If i'm right about that, I think my question is: can I wipe my profile (or preferably only my bookmarks) from my phones' Firefox without having to entirely uninstall/reinstall (or do you have any other advice for not re-polluting the server from some already-polluted device's bookmarks?
thanks in advance
