When using a traditional 3-button navigation bar for my system UI, I can long-press the "back" button to call up the current tab's history, allowing me to navigate back or forward several steps at once. However, when using gesture navigation at the system level, there no longer is a back button to hold. How do I open the individual history in that case?

Unable to view YouTube comments using Firefox on android. I can view the comments on Opera, duckgo and chrome.

This problem started about four days ago. Comments show on the short videos but not the regular videos. When I tap on "comments" the resulting page/frame is empty.

Stop Firefox from randomly replacing my pictures

I download pictures frequently and have noticed an issue with Firefox. It appears that Firefox is accessing my files and replacing random pictures I had previously organized in my Pictures folder. Even though I declined the permission for Firefox to access my pictures, it somehow still reads my files and replacing them it likes to. How can I stop this behavior? It doesn’t happen with other browsers.

There is an easy way to replicate this issue on the Firefox release, beta, and nightly versions:

1. Download a picture.

2. Move the picture to any folder within the Pictures folder.

3. Redownload the same picture again.

4. Click "Open" directly and open in Google Photos.

5. Click the three dots in the top-right corner to confirm the file's location.

You will see that Firefox knows the new file location and opens it from there. This indicates that Firefox is accessing file information directly because the "Open" function wouldn’t work if a third-party app was responsible for managing it.

Hello guys !!

As the title says is there any way to do that ?? It's possible on Nightly for android and of course on desktop but on the stable and beta on android not.

On the Nightly there is an option that can you disable called "Suggestions from Firefox Nightly". On the Stable and Beta this option is missing.

Google maps does not work even tho both the browser and gmaps site have location access and location is turned on . The problem is with firefox for android (stable version 133) . It has been like this for sometime i thought I'd just wait for it to fix itself but that's obviously not happening . Infinite loading or location not detected error . Have tried running with all protections and extension off . Do any of you have this issue ? Is there a way to fix it ? is the issue already acknowledged and worked on ?

I have opted to create collections in the pocket app, not tags. When I save an article I would like to see the option to save it to a collection. I now won't be able to tell which articles are in a collection. Also, on the saves page, I only see 3 collections listed, where I created more than 3. I don't see a way o select the other collections.

PS love pocket to read on my new kobo. Valeria
