Hi there,

I'm wondering if I am experiencing intended behavior or if I've stumbled upon a bug. I am sometimes downloading files in a staggered manner (i.e., waiting for files to finish downloading before I start the next file downloads). However, any file after the first in that session shows an inaccurate progress indicator in the toolbar which includes progress of the already completed downloads.

For example, if I download two files completely, then start the download of two new files and both sit at 0%, the progress bar for the downloads actually shows 50% completed (2 files at 100%, 2 files at 0% -> Average of 4 files at 50%). I can't imagine this is intended behavior, for I imagine users would like to know how their current downloads are progressing only. This behavior is only fixed when I clear previous downloads, which resets the list to only active downloads, or when I restart the browser and start a new session.

Is there a setting where I can make the indicator report only active downloads?

Any insight is welcomed, thank you.

I have a local Rocky Linux server running a nginx web server. I am using a Macos laptop. I am trying to install a self signed ssl certificate using openssl on my web server.. The certificate I generated works with Safari but not with Firefox. I have copied the certificate to both Safari and Firefox for local use. Privacy and Security, Manage Certificates, Your Certificates. Firefox complains that that my TLS is tls 1.1, when I am using tls 1.3:

An error occured during connection to tls-v1-1.badssl.com:1011. Peer using unsupported version of security protocol.

My test on my server shows:

sudo curl -v https://caprock.home

Furthermore I can't seem to delete the certificate from Firefox and re add it?

The new built in VPN is not showing up on my laptop browser. I have version 150 so it should be on there if I'm not mistaken. I can not find any way to get it to show up. It has shown up on my work computer so I know what it looks like and how to activate it when I see it.

Whenever I try to watch videos on websites such as onlyfans youtube, etc., the videos will not play since I installed firefox. I have to shut my computer down and start it all up for them to play. I googled how to fix this and I need to go to settings and scroll to performance and uncheck use recommended performance settings and uncheck use hardware acceleration when available but I can't find this to uncheck these items. Can anybody help me? TIA

I have checked my setttings to ensure everything to do with history is checked and all is showing as it should but when I start typing in the URL search bar, none of my previously visited websites appear. They are still in my history so i know they haven't been cleared but it is frustrating, as even after I manually type in the address, if I try to go back to that website later the same day it still doesn't appear.

Perhaps I have missed a setting somewhere - while I like the concept of pinning tabs, I use the side bar to display my open tabs. If I choose to pin a tab, that tab is pinned to the top. Great. However, if I wish to pin 10 tabs, for example, they are all pinned in a single row. What I would like to be able to do is to stack them, maybe 3 per row, then have the 4th, 5th , and 6th form a second row. Is this possible?

Or to open the profile selection sidebar?

I don't see it in about:keyboard but maybe there's something else somewhere.

If not, what's the quickest and easiest way to switch profiles?

I don't know why Firefox made my homepage so messy, with so many junk suggestions. It used to be a lot of thoughtful / interesting stuff about science / nature / health / politics / philosophy think-pieces and now it is all just "(unkown celebrity name) clashes with (council) over (something I don't care about)" or "(american president) shocks defense community with late night Truth Social Screed (BROUGHT TO YOU BY TABLOID PAYWALL)." Everything is suddenly UK only, and it is all from the Metro, the Mirror, the Independent or Sky News. I never, ever read any of that. I am sometimes in the UK, but not now. And my VPN is never set there.

I don't want to block whole themes - Health? I might be interested in some of that, but I don't need ten stories from the UK health sector gumming up my feed every day. Food? I used to occasionally get good recipes on the home page, but now it's a whole section of choco-banoffie protein smoothies and fried chicken, which I would never, ever click on or prepare. Money? All of these things have potentially interesting options, so I don't want to block them, but I'm definitely not interested in getting loads more of any of it.

Is there any way to go back to region neutral 'this is interesting' stuff? I find the current home page to be really unpleasant.

I have found Manage Extensions to be useless. It should 1) show all extensions installed whether turned on or not, and 2) Include a toggle to pin/unpin the extension there, rather than users having to search for this. I don't know how to find installed extensions that are not turned on.

The Help says to use the Gear Icon next to the extension. I don't have a Gear icon. I have 3 dots and there is no way to pin/unpin or to change the order the pinned extension appears on the bar. I don't know how to change the order.

Nice-to-have: an option to put all extensions in one place, down the left side panel, rather than split between top and left panel.

By the way, I went to "Show details" below on this entry screen and the system threw out everything. I had to retype it all.

I have two firefox icons on my menu bar. One has a star on it, which I understand why. Each morning the icon is blank. The other double icon is Photoshop Elements. I don't know what I did to have this happen. Is there a way to clear this up. I hope that you can clearly see what I mean with the picture I loaded. Thanks for any help
