I have many years worth of e-mails in several folder in Hotmail/Outlook. I am about to download them to local HD storage. I will probably use the Outlook Export function which I understand will send me a massive single .PST file. Does Mozilla have a way by which I will be able to search, read and generally access those e-mails and their attachments? Thank you very much for your help - this is part of my campaign to become less dependent on the Big Tech Bros...

Unable to play a video on Hulu with my own Hulu account, which I have had no issues in the past doing, even with all my ad blockers and trackers enabled (Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin, AdBlocker Ultimate, Ghostery, and Malwarebytes). I have tried disabling all of the above extensions, refreshing the website and still no luck. I have also followed the instructions Hulu guides me to via a link on the screen (see attached screenshot) to their help page https://help.hulu.com/article/hulu-power-cycle?utm_source=hulu&utm_medium=error-message&utm_campaign=video-02 None of these have helped either. My internet speed is fine, I checked it through 3 different internet speed testers to verify Also checked my Wifi signal through our Google Home portal. I've searched online for solutions and haven't found anything new to help or in the Mozilla Support forum. My computer/laptop is up to date on all updates and software. Appreciate any support, thank you!

why do videos opened in new tabs have an audio delay before the sound comes on? this is a recent phenomenon. So, when I right click a video and click 'open in new tab' when the video starts the audio is delayed 2 to 3 seconds. normally there is no audio lag. this has been happening for perhaps two weeks now. is it related to a setting? I recently adjusted the security and privacy settings.

this is still really annoying: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1500761

why is the icon even there or why does it have to disappear and then also change the tab size ?

1) if its there to enable you to play a tab in the background, then i want the option to switch the feature on or off (because i do not want to play anything in the background, atleast not via a 24/7 target practice with a mouse)

2) if its there to give you notice that there is a 'multimedia' tab open in your browser, then i want the icon to stay there and not dissapear plus change tab size...

like what is this even ? are we back in the 50s ?

Where is "Just go to about:config and switch browser.tabs.groups.enabled to false"? All I can find is that response when searching for a way to turn off tab grouping in Firefox.

That tab grouping "feature" really is too much like modern software developers' tendency to roll out a new "feature" and turn it on automatically no matter how annoying some users may find it. Some times when a mouse cursor goes too far and wanders into that tab zone, Firefox starts grouping tabs. Please allow us to turn the thing off.

When I am using the Private Browsing feature of Firefox, and I search for something like a restaurant menu from Google, the browser is able to receive my location data and use it for the search query before Firefox shows the pop-up asking if Google can receive my location data. I'll note that I don't include my location in my initial query, just something like "[restaurant name] menu." I'm not sure if this is an issue with Firefox or whether Google itself is having this issue, but I'd like to avoid having my location data automatically given before I get the chance to object to it. My main two questions are:

  • Why does this happen?
  • Is there anything I can do on my end to prevent it?

Thank you for your time.
