Web pages that are supposed to contain emojis are blank. I can highlight where emojis are supposed to be shown but the actual images of the emojis aren't there. about:config font.name-list.emoji correctly contains "Apple Color Emoji" If it is relevant, this has been a bug/issue that has persisted for a couple of months now (can't name an exact date).

Sometimes I want to enter arbitrary IPA strings into websites from my phone. I've tried finding a privacy-respecting way to conveniently do this and the best way I've found so far is to use the app Unicode Keyboard by Tim Wunderlich, available on the Google Play Store, and enter the code point for the IPA letters or diacritics I want. This works in every other app, but in Firefox, there are two characters I can't enter this way - the combining grave diacritic U+0300 and the combining acute diacritic U+0301. Even other combining diacritica work. I like researching and talking about linguistics and conlanging online, and sometimes this involves using those diacritics to mark tones. This is such an odd specific incapability for Firefox to have but it has persisted, since at least as far back as 2024. I've just had to enter those diacritics in another app and copy&paste them in. I can enter the diacritics directly as keyboard input in Firefox on Windows and GNU/Linux.

When I go to another app, and back, tabs have to reload, often loosing what was done in the page. I have set Firefox as "No restrictions" on my Xiaomi 15 Ultra (HyperOS 3, Android 16), but Firefox still seems to unload memory very frequently.

Firefox 148.0b2 (64-Bit) Disable search function in address field

Since version 148.0b2 (64-bit), it's once again not possible to enter search terms in the search box of a new tab; instead, the browser searches in the address bar. I've had all the settings I found in the forums configured correctly for over five years, and they haven't changed. - browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar = False. Despite this, the search still occurs in the address bar. Now I'm back to the awful search in the address bar. How can I fix this? Please fix this bug as soon as possible.

Original: Set der Version 148.0b2 (64-Bit) ist es wieder nicht möglich die Suche im neuen Tap, im Suchfenster einzugeben, sonder es wird wieder im Adressfeld gesucht. Ich habe alle Einstellungen, die ich in den Foren gefunden habe schon über 5 Jahre so eingestelle, sie sind auch nicht geändert. - browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar = False. Trotzdem wird die Suche im Adressfeld geführt.

Jetzt geht es aber wieder mit der Schrecklichen suchen in der Adresszeile los. Wie kann ich dies ändern? Bitte diesen Fehler (Bug) schnellst möglich beheben.

I am writing to report a serious performance and connectivity issue with Firefox on Android. The browser is extremely slow, pages take too long to load, and connections frequently fail despite having a stable and fast internet connection. Other browsers on the same device work perfectly, which suggests the problem is specific to Firefox. Clearing cache, disabling add-ons, and reinstalling the app did not resolve the issue. This significantly affects daily browsing and productivity. I request that this issue be investigated and optimized as soon as possible, as Firefox reliability on Android has noticeably declined in recent updates.

All searches get blocked by reCaptcha, quoted as being caused by 'unusual activity on the network' After going through the "I'm Not A Robot" process the search is o.k., but this happens for every search. The problem does not exist if I switch to Chrome. How do I fix this?
