Up until a few days ago, whenever I opened Firefox a right-side sidebar would open with the bookmark directory - including all bookmark folders visible at all times. Now I can't find how to do that. Instead there is this awful hover feature that has a VERY clunky and time consuming way to find an individual bookmark. How to change back to the prior method? Can I revert to the prior version of Firefox? Thank you!

I would like to make the toolbar and bookmark font larger. When I search for answer it keeps telling me to change layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to a larger number. I have done that a couple of times, and after restarting Firefox the font is still the same size. I search the community and didn't see an answer either, so figured I would ask. Thanks Jack

Thank you in advance!

I had an issue today while on the Geocaching.com website where I started getting a lot of virus warnings continually popping up on the webpage. This continued to happen even after I left the website and quit Firefox then reopened Firefox to its homepage. I ultimately had to uninstall Firefox the reinstall it to get out of this problem. I am using Windows 11 (with current updates) and at the time, Firefox was also current in its updates. Running Windows Defender didn't resolve the issue. I finally got the settings for my browser back to where they were before all of this happened except now I have this annoying Customize Homepage button on the bottom right side of the homepage which I can not get rid of. For me, this may be a deal breaker. I am also using DuckDuckGo fo my search engine.

Ongoing bug that first started occuring on Firefox Nightly before being introduced to Firefox stable and now showing on forks such as Waterfox and Fennec

When viewing first view it takes up 3/5 of screen to extra click of full menu covering virtually entire page, also slower both from a usable standard along with the animation introduced.

Classic menu is simpler to use especially when with different browsers such as Chrome, webpages and many other none browser Android apps. Default use of address bar at top - same as on desktop - means that navigation involves moving thumb from top right of screen to bottom, instead of keeping in same area.

Example attached on how the function did and should still work.

The new UI makes the tabs too long, blocky, and annoying to use/traverse on mobile, it takes me nearly double the time to scroll through my tabs than it used to. I would really appreciate a way to revert this as it is making my experience unpleasant and I am genuinely considering switching to a new browser because of it.

I'm having a problem where I can't get the old menu UI back. I've done everything I could and turned off what I was supposed to to use the old menu for android but I woke up this morning and everything it back to the new UI. Everything is still turned off to make sure I was using the old menu where everything was to the right of the screen but it still won't come back up the way it's supposed to and now I don't really have a clue what to do?

Could you make a shortcut to switch on between "dark mode" and "bright mode" in the mobile app browser + pc desktop browser?

There are enough webpages that don't show correctly in dark mode. It is not convenient to change the dark mode each time in settings!

Thank you

I use the Firefox Search bar a lot (the one that has a magnifying glass). The latest version of Firefox's Search bar seems different and the magnifying glass has been replaced by an icon of my default search engine. Although the old and new Search bar are very similar, the newer one has a larger font, and the search options on the drop down menu have a magnifying glass next to it. It also takes up more space on the browser (not as packed) which I don't like as much. Is there a way to revert to the previous version of the search bar? The first pic is the new search bar and the second is the older version.
