Locking this thread, please continue here: [/questions/1572529]
I've been using alt+a to open new tabs in a multi account container for a long time. Recently that shortcut stopped working possibly with the update to v148 as indicated in this reddit thread.

alt+a is not listed as a shortcut in about:keyboard or in about:addons > manage extension shortcuts or in my ubuntu shortcuts nor in any software I can think of thats running. I've disabled all my add-ons except multi account containers to no avail. I can change the shortcut to another and it works fine.

Why would just that shortcut stop working? What else can I do to diagnose the problem?

I have Firefox installed on multiple devices and most/all of them don't keep sessions or browsing history

I noticed that these files are updated while browser is open and get deleted once browser is closed:

  • sessionstore-backups/recovery.baklz4
  • sessionstore-backups/recovery.jsonlz4

No other files are related to sessions

I have "Open previous windows and tabs" checked

Installations:

  • Windows 10
  • Debian 12
  • Debian 13 (Firefox 148.0 Snap)

On Firefox for Android, this issue doesn't happen, I can even see the whole browsing history including history lost on PC installations

Hello, Mozilla. I really appreciate the way you think about internet access. What you stated about the app is truly reflected within it: fast connections, accurate results, and most importantly, the security. However, when it comes to advertisements, I was really expecting that whenever I watch YouTube contents, there will be no ads shown. To my surprise, ads are still there. I provided a snapshot of my desktop to give a proof about this. Is there somehow a way to get rid of them, like perhaps an extension to block ads? If there's none, that's fine as well. Thank you and high praise to the developers of this browser.

Hello,

I've been using the profile manager, and wanted to delete a profile that i have made. However, when i select the option to delete it, it only opens up a new tab in the profile called "about:deleteprofile', which displays an empty page and does nothing. Then, I would try to delete the profile manually, in the profiles folder, but if I opened firefox or restarted my computer, it would just come back. I have attatched the relevant images below.

You might be wondering why we lumped fractions and greatest common fractions together.
The fraction

24
80
. What you may have learned was to get the prime factorization of the numerator and denominator and again
24
80
reduce by eliminating common factors. For our example we could write

The first time the inline table creates a new line second time inserts in fraction where it is (which is how I want it) How do I prevent it from forcing a new line?

I know you can block it and opt out of the AI options in Firefox, but just wanted to voice my opinion.

We did not ask for it, nor do we want or need it. The bubble's gonna pop soon and then we are stuck with these AI artifacts.

By default the AI options should be blocked/off/opt out. If we want to use it, we'll opt in ourselves.

Version 148 recently installed as auto update and problem seems contemperaneous to that.

My Home page is set to show only the Firefox "search the web" as an entry box in the screen centre, but will no longer allow any input: instead the awesomebar (aka address bar) shows on the tool bars at top of screen and accepts/displays the entry. I wish to revert to the simpler display.

I thought the solution lay within the advanced preferences that can be accessed (via app:config) and the value of the awesome bar changed. However tthe awesomebar preference is the only one shown for which there is no setting at all. Edit brings nothing up. There is a delete bin symbol available.

Can anybody explain what is going on and how to rectify this situation, please?
