Hello everyone,

Is there any software that allows software developers to see what the CSS they are creating is doing in real time ?

Because I can't imagine they're doing it blindly. I see some CSS files that have hundreds, possibly thousands, of lines.

If there is software that helps them see immediately what their CSS is doing, can it be used to create extensions (add-ons) for Firefox ?

Thank you for your attention.

I have a Snowflake add-on, which requires WebRTC for connections. But WebRTC is not permanently active in my Firefox browser. See image. I activate WebRTC by toggling the config variable media.peerconnection.enabled into 'true' and the add-on works. For some time, only! After a couple of days it is back to 'WebRTC not detected'. What is wrong?

I joined a Microsoft Teams meeting through Firefox on the web on a Linux machine. When I tried to share my entire screen, I was asked if I wanted to share the entire screen in a Firefox pop up which I said yes. Then the "you are sharing your entire screen" came up, the sharing icon was red and the "stop sharing" button was red. See attached image. This all disappeared and reverted to the default state almost instantly.

Teams has a feature to "manage what attendees see manage what attendees see" where the meeting host can preview shared content before making it live.

I am concerned that the meeting owner was able to see my entire shared screen without me even knowing it through this preview.

Can someone help? Microsoft just sends you around in circles and I can't contact Mozilla.

I know with the implementation of this new CEO, he plans to add more garbage AI to the browser we've all been using to avoid all the new AI tool crap just to steal our data and sell it to a third-party. I have been a long, dedicated user to Mozilla Firefox since I was in middle school and played games with my friends, I'm an adult now and have never particularly been interested in using Chrome or any of the hundreds of Chromium based browsers. I've always stayed dedicated to Mozilla Firefox because the browser was specifically made to be user friendly and open-source. If you take that away I won't be using Mozilla Firefox anymore, I will just move to the next open source project for a browser.

I can't wait until this AI bubble bursts so we don't have to deal with any of this garbage any longer.

Do you have a set date to when you're going to be implementing this big change so I can have a proper funeral for one of the best browsers to be taken outback and put down into the AI slop this new CEO wants it to be?

How to disable firefox from suggesting emails/passport numbers/phone numbers when you are typing in details?

See the image below, how do I prevent that black box showing up and showing anyone who uses my device my sensitive data? How is this not a common setting to be changed?

Very insecure and Horrible to have on by default. Recently switched to firefox from chrome because of security concerns but stuff like this is making me want to go back, because HOW IS THIS SAFE AND SECURE?!?!?!?

I've typed in passwords in boxes that arent really password boxes, and firefox has suggested my own password in plain sight like in the image below.

Strongly recommend firefox to not make this default and make it an accessible setting to disable because I've leaked my sensitive information to online calls because of this. This urgently needs to be addressed as a security concern. At least have a cogwheel button next to the black box to quickly disable this setting. Very very disappointed.

I use the Menu Bar and discovered that when I select History and then right click one of the entries it no longer shows the small window which allows you to Open in a New Tab etc.

If I use the 3 bar option on the right hand side to Open application menu, then select History, then right click an entry, the small window I mentioned above opens as it used to when using the Menu Bar.

I have attached screenshots showing the issue when using the Menu Bar and also when I use the application menu on the right.

I have been using the Menu Bar option for years now so I can only assume that this issue has arisen after a previous update.

I am currently running Firefox 140.0.4 and this issue is there even when I disabled all themes & extensions and when I ran Troubleshoot Mode!

Hopefully a simple fix will resolve this.

I have been getting this error for about a week - absolutelyu no changes have been made to my usual use of the PC and browser. There may have been Firefox/Windows updates installed. I'm not doing anything different to the usual work I do.

I have tried using a new Firefox profile with no cached info carried over, this doesn't solve the problem. I have no extensions or add ons. I do run Avast, but haven't had this problem before.

Crash report: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/1fe71926-ad8e-4592-b103-9874f0250722#tab-annotations

NB: I do not usually get the opportunity to submit a crash report when these crashes happen.

Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to search-crown.com. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it.

If you are on a corporate network or using antivirus software, you can reach out to the support teams for assistance. You can also notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

Version 140.0.4 (64-bit)

As the title states, if you have a private window open and you close your main (non-private) window and attempt to relaunch Firefox (mine is at the taskbar) you will then encounter a window with none of the previously opened tabs and simply a single fresh tab. This is despite having the setting to continue browsing where I left off in the settings ("Open previous windows and tabs") enabled. Luckily the lost window can be recovered by going to History -> Recently closed windows -> "___tab names____"
