using Firefox Developer Edition Version 130.0b5 (64-bit)

https-only mode is enabled for all windows enabled, with a couple exceptions. one of those exceptions is www.bom.gov.au , which does not support that mode. anytime someone tries to open a page from there in said mode, leads to a page that redirects to it's homepage, highlighting that it is unsupported, and changing from any specific url to the redirect url.

in the past it worked well to have this page listed under the exceptions for https-only, always loaded without a hitch. but now it's treating the page as not an exception. i've removed it from the exception list and tried loading, re-added and tried loading, but the result is always the same. can anyone please help?

Cursor is not auto-hiding after taking a youtube video fullscreen on macOS

Whether a person clicks the fullscreen indicator or types F on the keyboard, the cursor will remain on screen as the video is playing until it is again moved. This also affects video played through the browser on steampowered.com. This issue appeared as of 143 and is still going strong in 144. This seems to be macOS specific as I am not noticing this behaviour on the Windows client. Could be a conflict with Tahoe.. I don't really know at this point.

There used to be a website where you could fire off a 'Firefox made me happy/sad' which is where I would've preferred to send this. So, have other people encountered this issue? And if so, are there any lasting solutions beyond wiggling the mouse?

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at marvelsearch.com.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox Developer Edition has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

i am using a local dnsserver and firefox is connected to it. is this the reason? if so how can i disable this? other firefox features are working beautifully.

Hello:FF dev 156.0b3 sept 2026. w11p. Is there a simple way to reduce the number of items/cut back the list of items appearing in the context menu (R mouse button)? A 6-yr-old post on reddit says to use userchrome.css. This advice may no longer work? And the instructions seem a little confusing to me. Thank you.

First, apologies if this is the wrong forum. This is about the FF Developer edition browser.

It used to show the browser width counter in the top right corner when you resized it. Now in the latest version I no longer see this. How can I get this back? It's a great feature!

Attached is what it used to look like. I don't know what version it appeared in and which it disappeared in.

Thanks!
