Request to enable X25519MLKEM768 on detectportal.firefox.com for improved privacy

Dear Mozilla Team,

I kindly ask you to add support for the X25519MLKEM768 hybrid post-quantum key exchange to the domain detectportal.firefox.com (the URL used by Firefox connection testing). This small change would significantly strengthen privacy protection for millions of users who rely on Firefox's connection test URL. As you know, this mechanism has already been successfully implemented on almost all of your other domains. Extending the same protection to detectportal.firefox.com would ensure consistency and close the remaining gap. Thank you very much for your ongoing work on privacy and post-quantum cryptography. I would greatly appreciate your attention to this request. Best regards, Anonymous

I have been using Firefox profiles for years, long before the announcement of the new profiles UI. The new profiles UI launhed with FF 144. I'm on the latest version, which is 149.0.2 and I still don't have the new UI. Specifically, I do not see my profiles in the new UI.

When FF launches I see the new UI but my profiles are nowhere to be see as you can see in the screenshots:

https://postimg.cc/gallery/tFXz00m

I have 2 profiles and they each have their own name.

Instead I am presented with 2 option "Original Profile" and "create new Profile". When I click on orignal profile, Firefox opens my default profiles which has its own original name. However, when go throught the new UI o switch profiles, I do not see my other profile. Moreover, if I click manage profiles, I don't see either of my profiles.

The only way I am able to launch my 2nd profile is the old fashiong via "about:profiles".

Why can't I see my profiles in the new UI?

On my 2nd profile, I don't even have the new profiles UI.

Why dont't I have the new profiles UI months after you launched it?

Please help!

Hi. I run Pop_os 24.04 linux and have run the latest updated firefox for linux and the latest expressvpn for firefox and am not able to get firefox to connect with the vpn "on". It did work a week or so back but not now. With the vpn on, firefox takes at least 15 seconds to load. I've run the troubleshoot mode and it didn't help. Are there settings on firefox that could be the issue or is it a vpn problem? Thanks

There have been a reoccurring problem with Firefox that seems to show up in Linux, Windows, and MacOS. When I log into icloud, I get an error message that the icloud username and password is incorrect, even though the same password has been enter in Safari and other non-firefox browser without issue.

I have tried

  • Run Firefox in safe mode.
  • Clear icloud site data.
  • Clear all Firefox browser data.

The only fix seems to be to create a new profile, which seems to point to a profile corruption issue. The problem is that the problem return after a while.

1. My left-hand sidebar contained about 150 URL links, mostly not bookmarks. I have used this constantly for the last 10 years to access desired websites. 2. After installing 149.0.2 this sidebar with all links disappeared when Firefox was restarted. 3. I tried several suggested remedies such as changing profile or settings on General or Home tabs. None of these were successful. 4. I have seen a portion of my list twice, enough to believe the entire list is stored someplace. It displayed in a box on the Firefox page, but I cannot remember how I produced this list.

How do I get back to having a sidebar full of links?

gmail no longer works in firefox. Nightly has been giving me a message about clearing cache and cookies for many many many months. After I do that, nothing changes and I still end up in a website about clearing cache and cookies.

Firefox ESR is not able to delete gmail emails after I check the delete box. It says they are deleted but the don't ever go away.

I cannot find any version of firefox that works with gmail. Please let me know if you have found one and provide a link for me to download that version.

thanks
