I.opened Firefox today and it felt like Google had taken it over. It was fairly scary. It took some time for me to figure out how to get to Firefox settings and disable Google as my search engine.

Please share a link about what Google (AI??) is doing and how Mozilla is dealing with this. What can users do by way of publicizing what Google is doing and defeating its ridiculously overblown sense of entitlement.

Firefox for iOS built-in translator performs partial/incomplete translation on Wikipedia

When using the native translation tool in Firefox for iOS to translate an English page (specifically tested on Wikipedia) into Portuguese, the translation is incomplete and inconsistent.

This behavior mostly occurs inside collapsible sections (the topics that expand and collapse when you tap the arrow icon). The translation failure is not just on a paragraph-by-paragraph basis; it often occurs partially within the same section, where some sentences are successfully translated while others right next to them remain entirely in English.

Ios 18.7.8(22H352) Firefox 152.4(74210)

Steps to reproduce:

   Open Firefox on iOS.
   Navigate to an English Wikipedia article (mobile view, which uses collapsible sections).
   Trigger the built-in Firefox translator to translate the page to Portuguese.
   Expand one of the sections using the dropdown arrow.

Expected result:

The entire text, including all sentences and paragraphs inside the expanded sections, should be fully translated into Portuguese.

Actual result:

A broken, partially translated layout where some sentences/paragraphs are translated, but others immediately below (or within the same block) remain in the original English.

(Note: Please attach your screenshot showing the open section with the arrow and the mix of Portuguese and English text).

Anyone know what is happening? In the past month or so trying to view websites on iPhone, even on Firefox has become impossible.

The number and size of ads has metastasized to the point they block out all content. Is this a new trend? Is it my settings?

Who is responsible for this shift — the website ad settings or the browsers? Is it Google further breaking the internet?

For the neurodiverse, it’s an accessibility issue as well as a dystopian nightmare.

Please tell me there’s a way to fight this apart from permanent reader mode. This has vastly reduced our use of the internet. Each site feels like a trap and a scam.

The ads cause anxiety as well as irritation and general thwartedness as I cannot reach the content! What are these people/bots thinking?

Thanks

The active tab in iPadOS just shows a slightly lighter white at the top of the tab. It is easy to mix up which tab I’m actively using or wishing to close.

I was wondering if Firefox for iPadOS could include an option to set a custom color for the top of the active tab? I believe this would help in quickly seeing which tab I’m dealing with.

Thanks.

If I click on a YouTube link in another app, say Bluesky or my RSS reader or something, and Safari is my default browser, as soon as it realizes I have a YouTube link it jumps to the YouTube app.

Firefox instead opens the YouTube link in a Firefox tab, and has an “Open in App?” banner along the top.

How can I skip that middle step? This is pretty annoying.
