As a stakeholder, I am unhappy with Anthony Enzor-DeMeo's ideas to incorporate more AI into the Firefox browser in the future. Most internet browsers are using AI nowadays, and I think Firefox's lack of AI makes it a very appealing browser for users. This is because new AI technology annoys many people. As other browsers continue to incorperate more and more AI, this will increase Firefox's appeal for users who are annoyed with AI.

Overall, I think Firefox will be a much better browser if it does not incorperate AI. It will mean a lot to me if these concerns are taken into account. Thank you for all that you have done.

Sincerely, Eli Buikema

I am constantly getting messages in quick messages to clear my search history! This is supposed to happen automatically when i close the site and in fact sais it has been cleared. I cant ever find the last sites i visited but it is rather disturbing to think that someone is seeing my search history without my authorization! So tell me squarely ,why do i keep getting that disturbing message?

I love the browser and use it daily with Android phone and Linux laptop.

Concerning the new Android version, it is great. But please, bring back the select all tabs function. I like to save and backup my tabs by sharing them externally, and selecting them one by one is a very slow process.

Appreciate!

Hello,

I am experiencing a recurring issue with Firefox on Kali Linux.

Environment:

- OS: Kali Linux (running inside Termux on Android) - Connection: VNC (RealVNC) - Device: Android phone (low RAM) - Desktop: XFCE

Problem: Whenever I open Firefox, tabs frequently crash with the message: “Gah. Your tab just crashed.”

What I already tried:

- Disabled hardware acceleration - Disabled recommended performance settings - Ran Firefox in safe mode - Created a new Firefox profile - Lowered VNC resolution - Restarted the system

The problem still persists.

I believe this may be related to graphics rendering or memory limitations under VNC/Termux.

Please advise if there is a workaround or configuration that can prevent this crash.

Thank you for your support.

We don't need any more "AI Browsers"

Many of us have AI and its features forced down our devices, apps and browsers without the option to opt-out or make a choice, and this makes them run slow and inefficiently becoming unreliable with the additional bloated memory and software.

Firefox claims they're always looking out to protect the privacy and data of their users, but with implementing AI we have the right to doubt this move and consider giving up on Firefox altogether for a more secure, browsing alternative.

Firefox used to be known as a browser you can trust in competition with others to bring an accessible and reliable browsing experience, listening to their customers feedback but as it turns out that'll no longer the case if the new CEO plans to clog it with unnecessary AI features.

I truly hope they see our feedback and pushback because this decision is not an upgrade but a disappointing downgrade.

SCENARIO: One or more tabs are currently open and the user wants to open a new one.

CURRENT BEHAVIOUR: It seems that a user can only open a new tab by long pressing on a random link found on an open tab/web page and choosing "Open link in private tab" from the pop up menu.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR: A user should be able to open a new tab from the expanded tab count pop up next to the address bar, perhaps above/below "Close other tabs". The tab count should be displayed even when there's only just one tab open; in this case the "Close other tabs" option should not be displayed.
