Hello Again that white stripe at the top of the screen is back this PM: I refreshed firefox yesterday and it solved until now: have carried out the dirty dozen: updated FF yes, clear cache yes etc.

Can anyone help me in layman terms: I checked safari and it was OK there. would prefer FF : I use (have done so since its inception) DuckDuckGo as my home page .

Thank you

Emoji no longer display after upgrade to 148

Since updating Firefox from a previous version, the browser no longer displays any Unicode emoji characters. Where an emoji would normally be rendered (👁️), the browser instead displays empty space. Websites such as twitter and discord, which use their own artwork for emoji, are unaffected. This has negatively affected my browsing experience.

For illustrative purposes, I will add a series of emoji and include a screenshot of how they are displayed: (😀🙁😡💀). Other characters still display correctly: (β❖♞䷲⎈𐘢𓀺இ). My computer otherwise displays emoji correctly. The issue persists after disabling extensions, and has persisted between computer restarts.

I'm running Linux (NixOS) and Firefox version 148. I've tested on Chrome based browsers and they work fine. Tested on Firefox forks and they also don't display correctly. This is new since less than a week ago.

Thanks for any help with this.

About ready to leave firefox over it, and been here for years.

How to hide "Take a screenshot" and "Original Profile"

Hello. I have two questions about settings. 1. I want to hide the "Take Screenshot" option from the Firefox right-click menu. 2. I want to hide the "Original Profile" option from the options that appear when you click the Firefox hamburger menu.

I'm asking about these two points. 1. I'm trying to hide the "Take Screenshot" option, but I couldn't find a solution even after searching. about:config ↓ extensions.screenshots.disabled ↓ From true to false ↓ Even restarting Firefox didn't hide the "Take Screenshot" option. 2. Regarding hiding the "Original Profile," I can't find any information about this option, so is it impossible to hide it? I'm asking about these two points.

Thank you in advance. I have a question about the "Screen zoom ratio" that appears in the Firefox address bar. I don't know how to hide it. The address bar is set to 105%, which I find to be the best zoom ratio, so I keep it set to that. I know you're busy, but I would really appreciate it if you could let me know. Thank you very much.

After tinkering with about:config (shouldn't have...) the background of every page that does not specify a body background color turns the color of my theme background color.

Using the firefox color pipette says its white, but it clearly isn't.

The theme i have is dark, making any page that expects the background to be white unreadable (without DevTools -> Body -> background-color: white)

I haven't been able to find the config that fixes it.

This may sound really stupid to some but I get really ticked that the 'refresh' arrow is so far away from the URL. I have to use my trackpad to do this and it's a pain to have to go so far. Every other browser has it right next to the address bar. It may sound lazy but I'm 70, have arthritis and try not to overuse the track pad. Harumph!

As you can see Chrome has it right next to the address bar while Safari's is contained right in it. A simple thing but it can make all the difference. Does it but anyone else?
