This is a feature request to allow users to change the order of tabs in the vertical tab bar. I would like new tabs to show up on top of the vertical tab bar rather than the bottom. I would also like the 'new tab' button to be at the top rather than the bottom of the browsers.

In the past month any browsing window I use suddenly goes to full screen and I have to manually reset it by resizing it. Why does this auto-full sizing occur? I can not find a setting that allows this. I just want any screen window I have to stay the way I set it.

The article explaining why one should not downgrade ignores a critical reason why one needs to downgrade and that is when it turns out that the new version breaks an existing website!

I got bitten by this when Firefox "upgraded" me to V143 after which point the ticket system I use to support my customers stopped working. That same ticket system continues to work fine in Safari, Edge, Chrome and Brave, etc.

Worse, when one does try to downgrade, the old profile gets removed which means you lose EVERYTHING you had (tabs, bookmarks and presumably all the settings and saved passwords, etc). You need to be keeping the old profiles around so that they can be accessed again should someone NEED to downgrade. Fortunately I was able to use Time Machine to recover the old profile --- but somebody just didn't think this through.

Much as I have loved Firefox over the years, I'm starting to feel that it's time to give up on it and move to something else.

Turning off automatic updates is not a solution because eventually one will choose to upgrade manually and most people won't remember to make a copy of their existing profile. Should one then encounter a problem, you're back to square one

Very disappointing .

I just updated my browser less than a week ago. Today I got another notification for yet another update. This logs me out of everything.

WHY so many and so frequent are firefox browser updates. I am about to stop using this brower if it continues. It's very disruptive!

Thank you for your attention to this.

Website: https://www.londonpicturearchive.org.uk/view-item?i=119810&WINID=1764158938344 (for example) On Safari I see there is a message overlay from the website saying "press the command key to zoom the image". On Firefox, this message is not displayed, and the website is greyed out.

I have looked at all my settings: I can't see anything wrong. Any ideas?

Also McAffee notification with all these popups stating that my McAffee protection expired yesterday - I have never had a McAffee notification for a virus or pair for protection from them. Popups are happening every 10 seconds continuously! looks like about 20 or more popups describing different problems with 20 digit numbers and letters as a serial number of the problem!

Why doesn’t Firefox support Messenger calls or end-to-end encryption? I use Firefox as my main browser, but Messenger features don’t seem to work properly, Sorry if this sounds insulting. Thank you.

Allow Audio or Video calls from messenger. and the end to end encrypt as well. if its not too demanding. thank you and sorry for the trouble.
