I cannot make fire fox work at all.for me. I need the file, edit, history, bookmark tool bar back. I'm pleading with you. Please I BEG you to uninstall the upgrade. Please let me have the Firefox I had last week. I,m 88 and will die before I ever!!!! i can't make anything work.I have over 5,000 bookmarks. I write for a few dollars to partly support myself. Right now I'm out of business. Where is the invisible email address? I have been using FIREFOX since it came out. i can't go through your circus. A browser should have a high degree of instinctive coordination, it shouldn't be similar to experts cryptic calculus level, when your totally unfamiliar with the level of calculus I'm sorry, I won't be able jump through hoops..

How do we convince Mozilla to add dark mode? It's a simple thing, and quite popular today.

I'm referring to Firefox on Desktop, but on Android, before the dark mode revolution, I would to root my phones to control the silly bright screens - it was a lot of work - but worth it. I still avoid apps that refuses to comply with popular and sensible dark mode.

The bright background fixation is due to people growing up writing on white paper... they don't get that it's silly - staring at a flashlight - or 1920x1080 flashlights. I started computers in command line days - dark was default. Then came blinding Windows - many years of blinding nonsense. Finally, in the last 10 years, while most tech has enabled dark mode, MOZILLA is a huge disappointing exception. Why?

The only way I've found to fix Firefox decreases security! about:config, extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains ... not recommended!

Using Firefox 135.0.1 with Mac OS 15.3.1. Sometimes the menus on the left side of the top menu bar (, Firefox, File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Window, Help) vanish from the menu bar at the top of the screen. The items on the right side of the menu bar are unaffected and remain visible. If I click in the menu bar area, the items that had disappeared return.

This does not occur with Safari or Chrome, only with Firefox and only infrequently.

Curious to know if it's a bug or something else.

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!!!!!

Where is the menu bar? I just got Samsung S9FE tablet. Getting around in Firefox without it is extremely cumbersome. I can see not having it on by default but no option to turn it on at all? That makes no sense. So, will it be resolved in future versions? I can't use firefox like this. Don't make me use Chrome or some other browser.
