How to download Firefox from Firefox
Mozilla website hides ALL Firefox download buttons when you browse it from Firefox.
This might seem as a silly problem - but it is extremly frustrating when you're trying to get installator for different system. I spent more than 15 minutes trying to figure this out. In the end I had download Chromium in order get to page with Firefox installators.
Please at least add link to 'https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/' into the footer...

Heya.
The link is there, it's just poorly worded; see attachment. I've struggled to find the page myself. If you'd like, you can leave direct feedback at https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback, as your words may not reach the right eyes and ears through the volunteer support forum.

Hi
If you are downloading a copy of Firefox from within Firefox, the page should have the option to "Download a fresh copy" which should take you to this page with all languages and systems.
I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

You are both right - when i directly access "firefox.com" or go through google - download links are indeed available. I should have taken this approach. Sorry for bothering you.
Still - However - when you access firefox website like this:
www.mozilla.org -> Firefox -> Firefox for desktop
i'm fairly certain there aren't any download buttons on those pages (when in firefox).
No bother, we're here to help!
The link is there too, the same pattern/assembly is used in most official locations, see attachment. The user does have to scroll past all the propaganda though, which is a little obnoxious (the Free Download link goes to https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/new/?scene=2#download-fx).
That's exactly what i don't see in my Firefox :D
Do you have FF 44.0?
Here I attached screenshots from both browsers - i guess since we spent so much time with this already, i'll send link to this topic to the offical mozilla support ( the link you gave me earlier).
Alrighty then - guess it's not there if you're on 44? I'm waiting on 43.0.4 until 44 becomes fully viable for me (currently has a connection issue on some systems).
The feedback portal is definitely the way to reach Mozilla with suggestions and criticism.
