Translation extension on firefox doesn't have an option for translating Chinese. I downloaded all the available languages and Chinese was not among them however I have found in the past that Chinese is the language which I most often come across sites,web pages, apps,etc written in and needing translated into English.

"Always offer to translate" is off, Firefox still always offers to translate

Using the latest version (127.0.2; installed from Play store today, on a fresh Android install), any non-English site I visit I get the nagging popup asking me if I want to translate.

'Never translate this site' works, and 'Never translate Dutch' (and presumably other languages as well) too (so at least I can workaround it, but 'Always offer to translate' off will still nag about translating sites, so is bugged.

And I still have the translate button taking up space in the URL bar. How do I remove it?

for a recent update or two, when I am watching videos in fullscreen, at least like me, for example, when I entered fullscreen, the video should play horizontally, but after merely half a minute, the screen orientation goes back to vertical mode automatically, which is not happening when I began to use Firefox android months ago. Watching same website on different browsers, only Firefox goes wrong, so I think this should be Firefox's bug.

Hi, I've just changed my phone & PC. on my phone (Realme 13pro+ on Android 14) Dark mode isn't working on most websites. I have glaucoma so it's very difficult for me to endure white backgrounds. I've checked on my old phone & the same sites are dark as they should be. I've tried 'Dark' & 'Follow system dettings" but neither work. on my new laptop, Dark mode works, but is preceded by a horrible flash of full brightness before it goes dark, which is really bad for my eyes!

Any help appreciated. Rich in UK

Since my addon was unlisten from AMO and I've been told to self-distribute it cause the audience is too small, I created a website that hosts it. Installation works fine on desktop, on mobile it just downloads the file.

Is there any way to distribute this addon for mobile users?

I used .xpi file that I downloaded from AMO page and response has correct content-type headers. I distribute it here if anyone wants to check whats going on https://ifv.banocean.com

In about.config i set javascript.enabled false for most browsing, unless i really need to do otherwise (e.g. ecommerce). If i close the app (menu quit), and restart it, javacript.enabled is reset true. This behaviour is not replicated for other settings i may make, e.g. dom.storage.enabled, or permissions.default.image. Being Android i have no root so no possibility of creating a user.js to override Firefox ignoring my settings. This seems to be a bug. Version is Android Nightly version 121.0a1, 2023-11-05.
