I would like to reiterate everything said below. This needs to be a standard feature. This seems like a no-brainer and should be a standard function on any browser. It only shows that Mozilla is getting left behind, even Edge has this feature, what makes it worse...IE had this feature and that is considered ancient tech now. from: kenmendell Now that I've got you and we're on the subject, Firefox seriously, MOST seriously, needs to bring back the "Bookmark All Tabs" command and have a "Save All Tabs" command of its own. There are no third-party apps and Add-Ons that do this very well anymore or at all, the older ones that used to do this no longer work well or at all. Firefox needs them in the browser to stay. It's never been the same without the "Bookmark All Tabs" command and trying to "Save All Tabs" the same way you would save a single page with "Save Page As" is frustratingly impossible to do. Any older Add-On or program that did this no longer works well or at all and hasn't for almost a decade or longer. It needs to be a standard function of any advanced browser. Firefox needs these functions as the normal standard. So, bring this up with your design team as an imperative because my having to migrate to these other lesser capable browsers the way others have doesn't appeal to me when Firefox should be a decade beyond their design and development, especially for functions that shouldn't be difficult hurdles for any modern browser to have.

Since the last update to 136, home screen shortcuts are awful. Icons are smaller, but that is not the main issue. Biggest issue is the text below icons: I do not need it, it just confuse my view, so since this morning I have missed 3-4 times my favourite sites! It is not good. Please consider rollback the look from previous version, now I have to downgrade Firefox

I found the tab groups more annoying than useful, so I went into about:studies and removed it, but doing so just makes a study entirely disappear with no way to bring it back if you misclicked, so that made me wonder, is removing studies permanent? Is it impossible to opt back in once you've opted out of a particular study?

I'm not particularly regretting my choice in this case, but it made me nervous how easy it would be to lose access to a feature just by accidentally clicking the wrong thing.

There is no Japanese in the language to which the website is translated. It is understandable that Chinese is available in the Asian region. However, we would like to ask why there is Indonesian, Vietnamese and Korean, but no Japanese.

'bold text My updated version of firefox does not have my bookmarks, will not print all pages, will not allow to select print in color, will not display images in downloads only text.

In updated version I lost my Mouse right click screenshot and edit ability of any images, how do I get it back? I rather use the old version of Firefox and wish Firefox does not force us to update

Hi all,

I’m a longtime Mozilla supporter, and I really value the organization’s commitment to openness, transparency, and user-first principles. That’s why I was surprised to see that Mozilla continues to partner with AccuWeather, and I wanted to open a respectful conversation about it.

AccuWeather’s CEO, Barry Myers, has a long and well-documented history of lobbying for the privatization of weather data. Under his leadership, AccuWeather pushed for legislation like the National Weather Service Duties Act, which would have prevented the National Weather Service (NWS) from offering public forecasts if private companies like AccuWeather were already doing so. Critics including meteorologists and open-data advocates warned that this would effectively limit public access to life-saving weather information.

Myers was later nominated to head NOAA during the Trump administration, despite his deep ties to AccuWeather and multiple ethics concerns. To make matters worse, in the present day, we’re seeing reports that NOAA is being actively dismantled from within—through budget cuts, leadership changes, and political pressure that favor privatization. These efforts echo the same ideology AccuWeather has historically supported: turning essential, public-facing weather data into a for-profit model. This is especially alarming in a time of increasing climate instability, where equitable access to accurate forecasting should be a public right, not a premium service.

Given Mozilla’s dedication to transparency, public interest, and open access to information, I’m genuinely curious how this partnership with AccuWeather aligns with those values. Has this relationship been re-evaluated recently? Or are there specific factors that Mozilla considers when forming or continuing partnerships with companies whose practices may not reflect Mozilla’s core mission?

This isn’t meant to be combative—I really do want to understand the reasoning behind this decision, and whether the Mozilla community has discussed these concerns internally. I’d also welcome thoughts from other community members who may have more insight.

Thanks for reading.

Greetings

It has been 5 years since Chrome introduced tab grouping. Meanwhile, the devs decided to start working on AI instead of getting this done ASAP. My workflow is completely dependent on Firefox so I can't simply change to another browser, the extensions available are not useful for me and I really miss this feature. Since this feature appeared on Nightly I've installed it and my experience just got a lot better, however, Nightly is just too unstable for me. Therefore, is there any way that I can cherry pick from Nightly this one feature that's totally working to my stable Firefox build through the browser itself without having to go to git/source code?

I really wouldn't like to wait another don't know how many years so they can get this done. I guess that my question would also be useful for other features that people are interested, that were already developed and that haven't been released yet.

'm not a programmer, but the almost daily new versions of Firefox that you publish make me question whether you know what you're doing? It's a shame to have a product that needs so many constant fixes. I've been using Firefox almost since the beginning, ie 20 years, but I'm seriously considering trying Opera or another browser that doesn't offer a new version every day.

Recently my Browser was updated and a fairly broad sidebar apperared from nowhere

As an experienced user with Firefox i have always been happy with it - it is just the Browser

WHY DO YOU KEEP ADDING STUFF LIKE SIDEBAR? It is fairly broad with a settings flag at the bottom. I already knew where settings were in menu. Why do i need this broad panel having the effect of decreasing possible width to expand a page if needed.

To me, this is just playing about, copying other browsers that are garbage that's why we use Firefox isn't it. If you try find out how to turn off it becomes a ridiculous unnecessary exercise. If you want to add stuff like this it should be configurable like everything else and not just appear.

It is so irritating i absolutely hate stuff like this, people playing about not improving it. Making it worse. Why are half the users trying to do what i am? - get rid of it.

HOW DO I REMOVE THIS HIDEOUS BAR? PLEASE ADVISE. arwatkins52@gmail.com

If you keep this stuff up it will drive me and many others back to other browsers which is damned annoying.

I look forward to receivine your guidance.

I have gone through themes and it was no use at all. I could not even see the sidebar to select it to turn it off? No doubt for some other ludicrously complex reason? I just want a simple page to read the internet. Please help!!!!!

The Password Manager is very good, but...

It needs two additional fields.

1) a field for a website name or a note.

2) a 2nd username or email address.

For example, I just added the login information for Bluesky Social. However, "bluesky" is not part of the url. If I later search for "blue" the correct login will not be shown.

Also, the login allows for input of a username or email address. The PW manager should store both.

Hello dear,

Please add "read pronunciation English and French" extention to browser Android.

Thank you.

The great and mighty Firefox that lords it over all other browsers about privacy has far too many opt-out features and options. I'm happy to know I participated in 22 studies before I found the toggle to turn it off, whatever the Hell those studies are. I haven't used Firefox in 13 years and this is the sort of non-sense I return to?

I don't actually want an answer, I just needed to complain.

(btw my browser is Firefox Nightly) Don't get me wrong, I love having vertical tabs. It's less busy than the horizontal tabs and I can look through my tabs more quickly. But, the way it's implemented sucks - It makes the layout of the webpage pop anytime I use it; there is no keyboard button attached to opening and closing the tab (I have to go through my horizontal bar to open my vertical bar); and recently my browser forgets the sidebar settings, meaning I have to re-check the "Hide tabs and sidebar" setting.

Bonus request Can the sidebar just go over the webpage (i.e. like the application menu) instead of squishing it? I'm ok with having some webpage features temporarily covered if it means I don't have to see the screen pop into a new rectangular shape every time I switch tabs.

It seems to me that Firefox's DoH implementation is not just pointless but actually harmful. It is security theater. Let me explain:

• There is no fine-grained control
• There is no ability for the user to choose what level applies to what networks
• Default Protection provides no protection when there is a canary domain (trivial)
• Increased Protection provides no protection when the default provider fails (trivial)
• Max Protection requires manual intervention when the default provider fails
• Bonus: it's inconvenient or impossible to use on mobile

For DoH to be useful, the user has to invest effort they could better spend setting up a proper system-level solution.
