Ever since the 152 update, every time I go to a Google website only, I am prompted to give Firefox location permission in system settings. They're definitely already turned on. It's so incredibly annoying I had to switch to Safari.

This is Firefox on a brandnew Fedora installation. Using Jupyter notebooks on Google Colab, I experience delays when typing into input fields. It's not quite a deal-breaker, but annoyingly sluggish. On a Chromium-based browser, Vivaldi, I don't notice this problem.

My hope is there is a certain overlap of the demographics using Colab, Firefox and Fedora. I wonder if there is a known problem in this area? Is there a configuration settings you can suggest?

Thanks in advance!

Bernd.

There are a million links when searching this problem; none of the fixes work and a search on this site was nothing more than FAQs about bookmarks and what they used for, blah blah. Astonishing, for such a big issue that seems to be a legacy problem now. So little clarity over the gazillion alleged fixes for this. Tempts you to get a browser with paid professional support... The consultants I support as a programmer and using Firefox are asking again frequently, "Any idea when we'll get a clean version that simply fixes all the bugs and forgets about flashy new shit and all that ?" A very compelling question...

Is there a handy fix I can transmute easily and won't have to waste hours on for each person etc ?

Is it possible to access Settings>Accessibility>WebsiteContrast to quickly turn it on and off, by setting it as a bookmark (or quick access) rather than having to click settings and search for it each time?

Can you let me know if this is possible, or possibly add it in a future update if it is not?

I know that there are extensions that allow you to do this, but I am wary of using too many extensions because they can be a privacy vulnerability.

Hi everyone,

I use Firefox for most of my research and frequently save articles, documentation, and webpages for work. Is there a simple way to turn this content into presentation slides without copying everything manually? I recently came across MagicSlides AI PPT Maker, which seems to generate presentations from existing content, and I'm wondering if anyone here has tried it or knows similar tools that work well with Firefox.

Firefox Profiles messed up my entire system

I thought original profile would save all my bookmarks, history, passwords, etc. I created a second profile for work, but that also does not contain any of my bookmarks, history, passwords, etc. I imported my bookmarks and other history/passwords from EDGE. I did this in my work profile because I couldn't get my original profile to import anything. I signed into work with my main firefox e-mail and exported bookmarks to HTML so I could upload it in my original profile. The original profile now wont log in and says I need a different e-mail account, so I'll lose everything on my original profile. It is ridiculous that my profiles don't have the same log on and don't use the same e-mail. I need someone to help me recover my system to normal working function. This has been a horrible experience and profiles are unusable.
