When I have multiple tabs open, around the 6th tab, the entire computer freezes. I have to press the physical button to shut down and restart. This behavior started with the last Firefox update. It doesn't happen when I use Brave browser. What changed to cause this?

I'm running Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint mint 100 - 1.0 version 141.0.3 (64 bit) on Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon. These are the latest versions of Mint and of Firefox for Mint.

Hi,

Pressing "enter" seems to double space next line my text automatically on platforms, and pressing "alt+enter" does single spacing next line. Is there anyway to change it to single spacing? Some older help threads mention going to settings or tools to find the "composition" option but that doesn't seem to exist anymore?

Thanks

No matter how many times I visit Amazon.com, it WILL NOT show up on my Home Screen as an ICON. I have tried 2 Rows and 4 Rows. I visit amazon many times in a week, sometimes many times in a day and it never shows up on the Home Screen after my last Firefox Upgrade to 142.0. Before the upgrade, it was always on my Home Screen. I have deleted many ICONS hoping it would somehow fill in as I visit Amazon - but it's not happening.

How can I fix this?

Thanks!

This is a little embarassing to admit, but my firefox suggest keeps suggesting me spankbang.com when i type sp, I noticed this when i was trying to search spanish on the search bar.

When I follow the suggestion to it's full autocomplete it leads to a video I watched a long time ago but have since cleared from my history. I tried long pressing spankbang to remove it from suggest but I don't really know how to remove this. I did include a screenshot, but the attached troubleshoot data is from my computer not my phone. I'm not sure how to include that.

Please help me, I have a date and I don't want to accidentally have that autocomplete.

Sincerely, Firefox Android User.

Usually, when I start typing the address of a website I visit frequently, Firefox will suggest the complete address. Now, for the last week or so, it doesn't. For example, if I start typing guardian.com, the default is to search, and then only when I type the final "m" does it switch to "visit" when I press enter.

In settings, under Search, and Address bar, the box to suggest browsing history is checked, and at about:config, browser.urlbar.autofill is set to true.

I have Firefox version 141.0.3

Why a browser needs AI? I don't want this, turn this off, completely.

The settings page is vaguely providing an option to turn off this feature. I don't care what you want to call it, be it AI/ML/chatbot, it's not related to browsing the internet and I don't want it. I don't want it to consume ANY resources of my computer, I don't want it to exist in my computer unless I EXPLICITLY use it, I don't want to be FORCED to go and search everything in about:config page to get it completely (probably) deactivated. Provide a button that DOES deactivate and hide (without running it in the background either) the whole AI/ML/chatbot integration. I don't want to use it, again, I don't want it being shoved in my face or my computer against my will. Firefox IS a web browser. Otherwise, let's stop making any kind of websites (eshops, newspapers, social media and other) since they will not be browsed by people that want to browse the web, since the web browser decided to put AI in front of everything to consume everyone's content and dictate their own design, alignments caused by bias disagreements etc etc.

How can I customize the headers and footers of a print job? Specifically, I want to change where the header and footer info appear on the page, i.e., left corner, center, right corner. I'm using Firefox Browser version 141.03. Under Print > Options, the only option is to show or not show the headers and footers. There is no option to EDIT them. Thank you.

I am an EX EU employee and have access via a double authenticated procedure to the "EU LOGIN" which gives me access to several internal webpages of my former work organisation. The most important is the access to the HEALTH SERVICE, which actually is blocked since one week-- and now it seems like this-- through your web browser. I am an ancient Mozilla user and supporter. After claiming my help desk in EU that my EU LOGIN is blocked, I got the answer, try to use another browser- and I saw that with another browser it worked. What happened with Mozilla? Do you want me to go to apple-microsoft or what ever?
