I couldn't find a proper category for this. Why does Mozilla make it hard to figure out where to report a bug? And then once you find where you need to be, they force you to create an additional login (something EVERYBODY wants to do more than necessary) to actually report the bug.

Yay, just what I want to waste time doing. I was hoping I could create another useless account somewhere with a new username and password to fill up my password manager with more junk. Thanks Mozilla!

Brought to you by the UI designer who thought it would be a good idea to remove all semblance of separation or delineation between individual tabs. This guy probably defiantly refuses to shave a break in the unibrow he got teased for mercilessly in high school.

Greetings

It has been 5 years since Chrome introduced tab grouping. Meanwhile, the devs decided to start working on AI instead of getting this done ASAP. My workflow is completely dependent on Firefox so I can't simply change to another browser, the extensions available are not useful for me and I really miss this feature. Since this feature appeared on Nightly I've installed it and my experience just got a lot better, however, Nightly is just too unstable for me. Therefore, is there any way that I can cherry pick from Nightly this one feature that's totally working to my stable Firefox build through the browser itself without having to go to git/source code?

I really wouldn't like to wait another don't know how many years so they can get this done. I guess that my question would also be useful for other features that people are interested, that were already developed and that haven't been released yet.

Is there a way to remove the thumbtacks and rounded edges off the shortcuts in the newest version?

I love Firefox otherwise, but the thumbtacks look terrible and are distracting. I use the shortcuts dozens of times daily to open my most frequent sites.

Please remove the thumbtacks and overly rounded edges in the new version.

Is there a way to hide the thumbtacks?

I have notice for some time the Firefox start have updates almost daily it is not too bad whats that bug me is the matter the updates only start show up the information the availability after you log in any account or web site , never in your Firefox Home. you can stay 1 hour with Firefox open with home screen and no alert of updated show 10 second after you login in on email account or enter in any web site the pop up the availability updated what start became annoying .

Thank you .

Hey new developement team you might as well remove and redo the entire support section. Tons of features, places we are pointed to-go to, options and whatever else were completely removed or moved to entirely different areas before the precovid developers were able to change it themselves upon being let go. Some spots the support points to more advanced features that the browser itself doesn't actually have anymore, because regressing 2015-1998 features somehow saves money? Removing features and functions that are up to 20+ yrs old seems like more work than just leaving them but what do I know... But the information on here is almost 5 yrs old now and desperately needs a complete rehaul. I don't know how many of ya they brought back but might want to play some catch up on one of the most important sections. I see tons of posts everywhere of people giving up and going to Brave or whatever instead because of this alone. Just as with a book, movie, whatever the beginning just as important as the end when it comes to capturing attention and sales..... Regards from every currently overly frustrated user that's also sick of/dealing with Windows (esp Win11) and Googles nonstop bombardment of bs.

Hi,

In my Firefox Developer install the new tab groups feature seems to now be working like one would expect, but my main Firefox install (Firefox desktop 138.0 (64-bit)) has some issues.

I can add tab groups, add tabs to groups, but left mouse clicking the colored tab header does NOT close the tab group, like it does in Developer browser. Mode of tab group clearly changes, as the tab is either dark or light colored after a mouse click.

I don't remember changing any other settings lately in about:config, except setting tabs.groups feature to true, and I don't have too many extensions installed, and I also tried disabling all the extensions, but that didn't help.

I would like to be able to view the names of tabs and the address bar. I am able to adjust the page views and all is well there. I do not want to use stronger glasses just to view the tabs and address bar and then switch to another strength of reading glasses.

(btw my browser is Firefox Nightly) Don't get me wrong, I love having vertical tabs. It's less busy than the horizontal tabs and I can look through my tabs more quickly. But, the way it's implemented sucks - It makes the layout of the webpage pop anytime I use it; there is no keyboard button attached to opening and closing the tab (I have to go through my horizontal bar to open my vertical bar); and recently my browser forgets the sidebar settings, meaning I have to re-check the "Hide tabs and sidebar" setting.

Bonus request Can the sidebar just go over the webpage (i.e. like the application menu) instead of squishing it? I'm ok with having some webpage features temporarily covered if it means I don't have to see the screen pop into a new rectangular shape every time I switch tabs.

I had a Firefox update yesterday, April 29th. Since then, my Bookmarks sidebar no longer opens automatically when I open my Firefox browser. I have to go to the sidebar icon at the upper right of my screen to open the Bookmarks. I went to my settings, and the box for automatic opening was not checked. I checked the box, and it still does not function. Any ideas as to what the problem is, and what the solution could be?

The great and mighty Firefox that lords it over all other browsers about privacy has far too many opt-out features and options. I'm happy to know I participated in 22 studies before I found the toggle to turn it off, whatever the Hell those studies are. I haven't used Firefox in 13 years and this is the sort of non-sense I return to?

I don't actually want an answer, I just needed to complain.

Latest update reduced the size of tiles on my new tab page. they're too small now to read the letter or custom image. And only a few letters of the name of the site below the tile are visible. Not enough to know what the tile is for.

How do I return them to their normal size?

I've looked at this page:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/customize-firefox-controls-buttons-and-toolbars

It shows the toolbar customization page like in the attached image I've named Customize Toolbar.

In my Firefox (138.0.1 64-bit on Windows 11), it looks like what I'm showing in the attached image I've named My Customize Toolbar.

I like the background shown in the Mozilla documentation. I hate the background I've got. I didn't choose that color. I have no idea where it's coming from. I sure would like to change that disgusting color to white.

How do I do that?

Hello,

It's safe to say that Mozilla is not heading in the right direction, with each FF release things are gradually getting worse and worse (example: the removal of the search bar ENTER key function, and the recent change of terms that allows mozilla to harvest user data through FF). Optimally, the user would be allowed go back to an older release, but with downgrades come the loss of profile ... etc, which is why I chose to simply stop updating FF completely. Not an ideal situation, but there's no telling what else Mozilla is going to f up in the next hour, week or months.

I thought my troubles were over, except there's now the added nag message, it shows up every few minutes, every time i start the browser, even starting private browsing window will activate the update prompt message. it's tedious having to press "dismiss" 20 times a day, the message itself imposes on page content, and can't be disabled by clicking outside the message box. I've already went into configuration, and activated the silent update message option, but to my amazement, the message came back again in a few hours, and the option was flipped back off.

how do i get rid of this message once and for all? and before mozilla staff clarifies how stupid it is to turn off updates, i understand the risks of my own stupidity, i just don't want to put up with mozilla's.
