I can no longer see Shortcuts, Bookmarks or Stories Home page in Private mode. They are displayed in normal mode and they seem to behave as before (I can add or remove individual items in Shortcuts and Bookmarks). Can I fix this myself or is this a bug or a new design choice?

I also have the issue with dark mode permanently enabled documented elsewhere. I am actively thinking of changing to another browser after many years using and financially supporting Mozilla

"Jump back in" has preview for wrong site

On my copy of Firefox for Android, I have had issues with the "Jump Back In" feature, where the preview image doesn't match the site listed in the description. I think it is that the site is the last one used, but the preview is the site preview from the second-to-last site rather than latest. This is confusing. Clicking the link takes you back to the last site visited correctly, so it looks like the preview is the bit that is wrong. After clicking a few sites back and forth, it sometimes gets the preview to show correctly for a while and show the right site, but it always seems to break again and lag behind on the preview again.

See attached image as an example. Description shows Minute Cryptic websitr being last visited (which is correct), however preview shows a Google Search, even though that was second to last tab visited.

Any thoughts or things I can test?

This is latest Firefox for Android (146.0.2) on Android 10. This has been happening for me for many months.

After the update yesterday, all of the pinned icons/links on my home page have been rearranged or replaced with others. I restarted the computer and also closed the browser and opened it. Still messed up, I have several that are the same link and some that are missing.

Any way to get them back in order other than trying to figure out what is not there and resetting it all up again.

Thank you

It was suggested that the pencil icon was not enabled.

The pencil icon shows that the shortcuts are enabled in the "on" blue position - 2 rows. I also checked the shortcut box in the firefox settings home and it is "on " as well.

Tried rebooting my Dell laptop running windows 11 and still no shortcut appearance on the opening page.

Thanks for your help.

(IOS) Am I having a stroke here or is something wrong? When I was on a webpage before and wanted to go to another website, I could click the marker in the browser line, delete the address and I could just click on my shortcuts from the main page. I don’t know if there has been an update or something but now I am no longer able to access the shortcuts directly!? Only if I open a new tab I can now access my shortcuts. Anyone else having issues?

Until a few weeks (or days) ago, tapping the address bar opened the homepage. Now, it opens search. Is there a way to go back to opening the homepage?

Followup: when activating the setting to show shortcuts in the address bar, only the first two shortcuts are shown - can I get Firefox to show more?

How Do I Reverse Mozilla's Terrible, Garbage, Mind Blowing Bad Spacing of Shortcuts.

I updated (latest Firefox for desktop, but feels like I downgraded) and now my home shortcuts seem to have 4 acres of land (padding), each! Mozilla must think my shortcuts are thinking of starting their own space program or something.

Mozilla needs to stop doing these little things, and just leave them as options. Annoying to have to look through the terrible list to find what they changed. It's why I disabled updates in the first place. Too many changes by someone that doesn't physically interact with people in the real world.

Mozilla makes me mad how poor their design changes are. - Bad Mozilla.

Why add something has has no benefit and leaves one wondering why?

Thank you for your time on this issue, greatly appreciated.
