Linux. I'm trying to add speech synthesis through Piper (which has much better voices than what's installed by default). I've got it set up in speech dispatcher and can use "spd-say" on the command line without issue. But Firefox refuses to say anything through this configuration. I've configured one voice for Piper and it shows up in the voices list in FF.

FF can play other sounds just fine, such as video. FF could also play the voices from the other module that was preinstalled. So this might not be a FF issue? But as mentioned, speech dispatcher responds correctly on the command line and FF lists the voice I've configured through it.

I'm not sure where to go from here as searching has turned up a lot of dead ends. Any help would be appreciated!

I believe that I purchased a lifetime subscription to fireshot pro and I don't know how to place this on Firefox so that I don't have it asking me for money. Please tell me what to do. Thank you very much

The regular version of the browser is open with a bunch of pinned tabs and a private version. And!!! If you close the REGULAR version , but DO NOT close the PRIVATE one before that, then when you try to reopen the REGULAR one, ALL OPEN WINDOWS AND TABS will BE DELETED!!! WHY?!?!

And these tabs are not saved in history, because they WERE NOT active in this session!

Where do developers' hands grow from?! Well, this glitch was a couple of years ago! But now?! A month of work preparation went to hell because of Firefox failure... How do I restore tabs that were just blown away by the browser?

Hi - Recently when I was on either my desktop or laptop I saw a notification that the sidebar would be going away. I can't seem to find any information on that now though. Will the sidebar still be going away soon? I for one would like to say that I enjoy that feature and would like to see it stay an option on desktops/laptops. If it does go away, how do we access bookmarks and synced tabs? Is there anything I need to do ahead of it possibly going away? Thanks in advance for your help!

I've lost access to my [edited] @hotmail.com email address that is associated with this account, and I'd like to change my email address now before I'm locked it forever. This is the last computer that I have that is still logged in! It seems that to add another email address I need verification from my first email address, which I can not get. Please help! I don't know if your response to this help question will go to my Firefox account or my email, but if it goes to my lava950 email I won't receive it. If you could please also send it to [edited email from public community support forum], I'd really appreciate that. Thank you!

How do I roll back an update that is not working on my system? I am very displeased with Firefox overall. You are a memory hog and no settings that I try help. Now, when I open a new tab Firefox freezes and I often have to close and restart, sometimes more than once. You are pushing me away from your product. I am now looking for a browser that is user friendly and compatible with my older computer (windows 10 is the most upgraded OS I can use). I hope to hear from you with a resolution soon.

I guess I'm hoping an engineer or someone who works on firefox can resolve this cause it's always what pushes what me away.

I'll be sick of Chrome harvesting all my data, I'll download firefox, and I'll set it up. A couple years ago I deleted my chrome profile and switched completely over to firefox. I want to say once a month, I'll open firefox and websites won't load. If they preload they'll act like they're offline.

It's happened to me on Windows machines and Mac machines.

If someone wants to seriously drill down and figure out why this happens across platforms and DECADES, I am happy to provide logs and video chat or something.

I've tried to import all the passwords I had saved on Brave, which I am leaving. There's one way which is in Firefox itself, where the little icons spin and it says passwords and other things have been saved. But the passwords have not come over. I've gone to several AI engines, and they have me create HTML or .csv files, but these aren't working either. When I tell AI this, I get suggestions so complicated I'd have to be an expert to use.
