As per the topic title. I would like pages to always automatically translate from english to my chosen language. However, when I select the option in the context menu, then revisit the setting, the check box remains unchecked. This remains the case on multiple tested operating systems, Arch Linux and Linux Mint. Thank you in advance.

Hello,

I have a Mac desktop running Seqouia 15.1.1, and I'm using Firefox, primarily.

Inside LinkedIn, the "see more" link is missing in people's profile sections. I can;t expand any of these sections to read them in full.

They are present in Chrome. They are present on my iPhone.

I've reset everything I can think of but nothing impacts it. Also, this is a fairly new problem. So, something updated that caused this but Idk what.

The attached images give examples.

1st image (FF): Where the "..." is, a "see more" text link should also appear. 2nd image (CH): "See more" is present.

hi everyone, first of all, happy new year.

while browsing reddit, i keep seeing these strange underlined empty links on random words/names. for example this comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/moviecritic/comments/1hpse0f/comment/m4jxdwq/ shows the name of actress underlined.

i disabled all my extensions and the problem persisted. i checked using chrome and the problem didn't exist.

on inspect element i found something called faceplate-tracker though.

any clue what is this? and how to deal with it?

Your PC doesn't have an app that can open this link. Try looking for a compatible app in the Microsoft Store.

Your PC doesn't have an app that can open this link. Try looking for a compatible app in the Microsoft Store.

Is this Microsofts way of saying "Use Edge?" Can I change settings to make it work?

Hello, This is definitely an annoying bug because each time I right click a specific tab then "Open a new tab on the right", there's no focus on the url bar. And when I want to type something I have to bring the mouse inside the url text zone and click before typing.

It would really be a nice QoL to have.

Thank you ~

I am looking for a solution that will allow links to open in the same tab rather than tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab, tab. I am also having issue with sign ins opening a new blank tab and not having the ability to sign in at all. I've been using Firefox since I quit Netscape. And yes, I tried many epic fails that were disguised as solutions that don't work. I'm seriously about to give up on this browser if I can't get what I had after a SSD drive fail that forced me to reinstall from the ground up.

Why can I not use a shortcut key to slow down or speed up speech. Some things are easy, and I want them to be read fast. Other things require some thought on hearing them, so slow down would be appropriate. And it is inconvenient to have to go inot the options for Read Aloud in order to do this. Besides which, when you go into options, you really don't know whether you have changed the speed the appropriate amount until you go back and listen to the text. As well, I listen to things in English and Spanish and need to switch speeds for these different languages."

Hi Support Community,

I wanted to share a strange finding. I’m currently learning Vietnamese and often read articles with translations to improve my comprehension. I also use Reader Mode with voice playback to practice my listening and speaking skills.

Today, I accidentally pressed Play after translating a news article — and to my surprise, a Vietnamese voice started reading the English text aloud! I tried changing the voice settings, but it seems the model is stuck (Standard = Vietnamese). And it can be fun, listening to that Viet voice trying to pronounce English words, but in the end, it's of no use. I would rather prefer a matching englisch voice modell, in case I should decide to listen to the translated text, one day.

It’s not a big issue, but I thought this might be something worth passing along to the development team.

Thanks in advance!
