I have private browsing disabled on Firefox but there is a way to still use it via Ctrl +H , right click an item and there is dropdown of "open in private window" and it works. However I have no other way to open private windows since I blocked it. Also when I Ctrl+T in the private browser, it says this is disabled.
Therefore this option in Ctrl+H right click menu should not be there and I don't recall seeing it before. Maybe a bug with a recent Firefox update.
Does anyone know what has happened or how to remove this option?
Thank you!

I have tried everything in the other support articles related to this issue. It pops ups even after disabling every option. I think its a bug.

How do I turn off the “suggest AI summary” thing? The popup is annoying the hell out of me while I’m reading articles. I’m not going to use the AI summary feature so I’d like it to just stop. I use the Firefox application on iOS.

I am seriously concerned about the upcoming use of AI in Mozilla Firefox. The only reason I use Firefox is because it is one of the few remaining widely compatible browsers that allow me to switch off any AI features. Generative AI is needlessly wasteful and absolutely pointless. Is there any way to prevent this from being forcibly added to Firefox?

Recently, I've found that the OSX keyboard shortcut for focusing the next window in the current application ("Move Focus To Next Window" in System Settings) has changed its behavior. Pressing [cmd + `] will only cycle Firefox's windows until it reaches what seems to be the "end" of the current list of windows open. After this, I have to press [SHIFT+ cmd + `] to go backwards through the list of windows to re-focus any of the other windows.
Before, the behavior was such that I could just repeatedly press [cmd + `] and Firefox would infinitely cycle through all open windows, no shift key needed.
I haven't been able to reproduce this changed behavior in any other applications. Testing this in others (Finder, Safari, etc.) yields the cycling behavior instead of making me reverse the direction with shift to get back to the previous windows.
This is tied to the operating system's command. If I remap the keystroke to something else in system settings, I still need to use the shift key with it in Firefox once I reach the last open window.
Is there a way to get the old cycling behavior back? I find the key command with the shift key to be much less ergonomic.

the only reason ive been using firefox is because its one of the few browsers that doesnt use AI. now this? anthony enzor-demeo what in the hell is wrong with you? no one wants this, stop pushing AI in a browser we all use SPECIFICALLY to avoid other browsers' (like chrome) sell out. i dont care if there's opt out I don't want this to be an option in the first place, and I know a lot of others feel the same.
i am not the kind of person who has brand loyalty, and if you continue with this I'll find something else to use.

This might be quite "old man yells at cloud" of me, but oh my god I am so fed up of everything putting AI in as a "feature" for no reason.
1) No one asked for this. 2) It is bad at doing whatever it is designed to do. (It's not helpful, it's not even neutrally unhelpful, it's ANTI-HELPFUL.) 3) It is always on by default, or worse, impossible to turn off.
At the very least AI features need to be off by default, because it's rubbish.
Firefox is meant to be a bastion of sanity and safety in a world of exploitative techbros trying to steal our data and trick us into making money for them. So-called "AI" goes against this. Please, Firefox, be better.
As of 20th Nov 2025, here's how to turn off AI features. Go into about:config and set all of these to false (yes, you’ll have to copy and paste them one by one):
in addition to nuking AI, it’ll also speed up your browsing

I have strong ethical objections to the current generation of LLMs, and really strongly dislike contributing to Google's massive monopoly on most internet spaces, hence my using Firefox instead of Chrome. I was disheartened by the addition of an AI label to Firefox, and really would love to be able to continue using a good browser that doesn't shove AI slop down my throat. If the integration of LLMs to Firefox is going to continue, I wanted to ensure there will at least be some way to remove it from my browser

Using Firefox 145.0.2, Flatpak installed via Bazzite's Bazaar store, there is no "sparkle" button in the sidebar, no options present like there are when I use Firefox on Windows.
I"m trying to set Firefox as my Browser.
kindly make easy access to the features of program, which will help us use easily
I heard a rumor that Firefox is going to add in AI/LLM slop. I use Firefox to filter that out. Tell me it isn't so!

Look, as previous users have mentioned, many of us use Firefox because it isn't a bloated AI crapshoot. Syncing across devices and having a pretty skin on is nice, but I'm getting tired of having to manually disable the current AI crap just so I can do some basic browsing in peace, and if this browser adds any more of that tripe I'll be done. I don't want to be, I've enjoyed this browser since it was launched and until recently it's been good to me. But if I have to do any more in-system tinkering I'll go back to Safari because somehow we've ended up in a timeline where that of all browsers is coming up top :|
