I have an quite annoying( disturbing) issue related to your browser. The problem is that Firefox is stuck into Desktop mode.

Since I have an Samsung Galaxy Tab S9Fe ( SM-X516BEE). However I've never experienced it on previous versions ( below 120-30 something). My pervious version is: 138.0.2

Not only that all of my serach results are the same as on PC( since Android is LINUX based), bus also that many pages are opened as if they were on PC. But as well that the graphics is completly wierd.

However I have already Deactivated Desctop mode- but however it's still stuck in Desktop mode.

So my vonclution is that Samsung devices( Tablets) make it easy for itself and make it equal to LINUX/ UBUTNU.

So it also sems that all versions published on Google Play= to Desktop( PC/ LINUX). So please get rid of this annoying stuff and publish an regular mobile version.

As shown in image, Though the current tab is highlighted, a previous tab has shadow around it.

My setting: 143.0.2 (Build #2016116031), ae41fe4e0410af90d829e92b192065938fcd51e2 GV: 143.0.2-20250922120053 AS: 143.0 OS: Android 15

How to reproduce: Press + button on tab bar, then select any opened tab or enter a new site. The tab that is focused after this will always have shadow around. Then move focus to other tab without clicking + button. The highlight moves but not the shadow. edit: the tab that is focused on firefox launch also have the lingering shadow, untill you press + and select another tab.

I think the virus is back, it interferesbwhen typing, it's stopping my smaller antivirusles from working properly, it keeps turning the VPN off, it's blocking my internal and using my pin card! And I'm blocked from my Amazon account because chrome went to buy something! I've had this virus before so you must have a report number about it, it's very clever but I'm fed up fighting it now, been going on for months and theres nothing wrong with my phone, but starting to think about getting another, this annoys me every day!

Hello,

On Firefox for Android, I get "Proxy is refusing connection" error while attempting to connect to any site on the Internet. But I didn't configure any proxy connection for Firefox! Moreover, this error happens when I use my home Wi-Fi network, but browser works properly when using cellular data or any other Wi-Fi network. Also, browser works for some time if I start VPN (Psiphon in my case), stop Firefox through Android settings, clear cache and start the browser again.

Best regards, Peter

After selecting Mozilla as my default browser, I tried to perform a search but the only page that loads is the page that wants you to download Mozilla on desktop and android, which I already have. Each time I've tried to do a search with Firefox this is the page that appears, no search results of any kind, but when I switch my search to duckduckgo and perform the search I get results. Can someone please help me understand why I can't perform a search using firefox?? Thank you in advance for your help!

Any way you are able I've been trying to get out for over ten years. This is very difficult to describe communicatively in this manner. I don't belong in a facility. I do not have any applicable issues that require me to be here other than to maintain the silence a criminal mind that keeps me here requires. Keeping me blind, and forcing me to lose my "Independent Living" status is the Facility Administrator's goal to take away my rights to administer my own medications, use my own doctors, not allow anyone else to touch me or bathe, dress me. Enter my home, or go through my things without my permission. He has given every caregiver a passkey to every apartment in this facility. They're breaking my closet doors while I'm in my bathroom, etc
