I used to have a "reload" icon on the bar with "home" and other things like "bookmarks." I found it in the "overflow" icon place. I tried to grab it and place it where it used to be on the toolbar. It disappeared and I have no idea where it is now. It's not where I found it in the "unused buttons."

Approximately 2 years back, for a short period of time, FireFox let you choose an audio output device in video conferencing web apps, through the web app directly.

This seems to be gone now, but I'd like to turn the feature back on.

It's very problematic to have to change your default audio device for video calls, as your computers sound effects and whatnot will also play in your headset as well, where as before, all you got was the audio from the video call in your headset.

Is there a way to turn this on again? Owl Practice (one of the VC web apps I use) still shows the different output devices, but regardless of which one you pick, it always comes out the default device. For a while this feature actually worked, but now it doesn't.

Is there a setting I can change? Maybe in about:config?

Thanks!

Hello there. Firefox has just updated to 130.0, and it’s changed the appearance of the dark theme. There are now blazing white borders around the buttons in the toolbar.

This defeats the object of having a dark mode. They also flicker off and on when the cursor passes over them. I fear it may already be giving me a headache.

Is there anything that can be done about this? Some option I’ve missed to make dark mode actually dark again? User-control of theme components would be the dream, so we could darken the text on browser tabs and the menu bar as well.

Why isn't Homograph / homoglyph protection enabled by default? It's common sense. 99.9% of addresses only use simple ascii anyway.

How can I prevent the password manager popup from showing up? I don't like how Firefox just shows up all saved logins automatically every reload of `https://discord.com/channels/@me`.

Hello, I had surgery on my thumb and I'm unable to type, except with one finger on my non-operative hand. I have been using dictation software to dictate everything that I need to type/write, then edit the text, then copy/paste it into the browser page or application that I am working with. This is rather time-consuming. I searched for a speech-to-text add on for Firefox, which is my default browser, but I did not find one. Does one exist? And if so, how good is it?

Thank you!

Hello,

In the settings I check "always ask where files are saved" but the files are automatically saved in the "Downloads" folder.

Is this a bug? How to solve it please?

Thank you in advance for your response

Sincerely, TD

Hello. How do I do if I want Firefox to open a new window every time I click on the icon? I tried to insert the command "-new-window URL", which used to work before but it doesn´t anymore. Is there anybody out there who knows something about this?

All other modern browsers have autofill as standard for names, addresses, phone numbers and emails.

I am in the UK and just started using Firefox and really love it but the problem is is that there's no way to turn on autofill.

Looking into it, the only way is to change your language to US and then the option will come up. However, it doesn't then work as it won't let you enter UK formatted addresses or phone numbers.

Why is such a basic feature missing from the UK version and does anyone know when it will release to the UK?

Thanks so much in advance.
