Hi, I have been a Firefox user for 30 years, so I want to comment on your product. Every year I notice the performance of the browser getting worse and worse, more and more errors unexpected closures and slowdowns, it's bad to work because such small crashes make you look for another alternative. I do not write this maliciously, but that you think about how to improve the performance and speed of firefox. I only hope that someone wise will read this and pass it on to the higher-ups to make real changes.

In any case, you are going in the right direction and I still consider firefox with the most friendly and easy to use browser.

greetings to the team

Hi Today I updated Firefox to version 106.0 and I can't get rid of the "arrow button" from top right (screenshot attached - near the minimize button, I marked it). The function of this button is clear for me - tabs management. But I can manage my tabs without special button for it. I want to remove it. I tried right clicking on it, but the "remove from toolbar" option is unavailable. I tried to customize toolbar, but it won't work either (I can't take it from te toolbar).

How to remove this button?

On startup this morning, I saw the Colorways options. I tried a few, but decided to keep my Dark theme.

One of the first set of Colorways options was "no option," a circle with a slash. On the new Firefox View > Colorways page, that is no longer an option. I tried Settings > Manage Colors, to no avail.

The Firefox I'm using now has screwed up colors. I want to revert to the Firefox I had on startup. How do I do that?

File "bookmarks.html" in Profiles not updating.

I'm on two Apple machines, both running Monterey 12.6, a 2014 Intel Mac Mini and a 2020 M1 MacBook Pro. Both updated to Firefox 106.0 yesterday. The MacBook Pro seems fine, but the Mac Mini "bookmarks.html" file is not being updated. I noticed this as when I run backups, I have a script that copies the file from my profile into a folder so the backup program can back it up along with other files.

In the profiles location I have a folder named "bookmarkbackups" and a file named "bookmarks.html." Is there a setting that needs to be set/changed so the html file continues to be updated?

Why is the Republican National Committee Web Site "protectthevote.com" blocked by Firefox?

Why are both the Firefox and Edge Web Browsers blocking the Republican National Committee (RNC) Web Site "protectthevote.com" web site and functions? Our country is supposed to have the most "safe and secure" election system, so why is there a block on any effort "To Protect The Vote?" This is a grossly partisan action as if the DNC is controlling the Firefox and Edge Web Browsers. As an registered independent voter I'm requesting your tech team look into the below error code and correct this issue: Error 403 Forbidden Forbidden Error 54113 Details: cache-den8256-DEN 1666194678 467245676 Varnish cache server

Popup dialog never works right in Firefox, dialog is blank (no content) in Firefox....works fine in Brave browser

A required site I need to use for work has a popup dialog box that never works right in Firefox, the popup dialog shows up as a blank box or doesn't popup at all in Firefox. I must print what is supposed to be there in that dialog box. It's been like this for a couple of years now. I've tried everything imaginable and searched high and low for the fix. I have had this particular site set as an exception to popups blocking, and then I also set it to have all popups unblocked. Still doesn't work either way. I have to use the site in Brave instead, and it's the only way I can get what I need done. I used to love Firefox SO much, I used it exclusively. But it has undergone some unpleasant changes recently, such as hiding my open tabs on my iphone. Because of these issues I find myself using other browsers more and more.

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue with Sync for my Containers. I've run through this several times now, and I know this is supposed to happen by default. However, it is not syncing for me. I added the extension, created a container and added a site to it. I selected 'Limit to Designated Sites'. When I install Firefox and login on a different device, the multi-container extension is automatically downloaded but not the containers/site list I created on the initial device.

I have checked 'Enable Sync' on both devices in the container settings.

Thank you

It seems that the base colours of some add-on themes shows, but most of them just shows as a dark grey background for the firefox homepage. It shows the theme on the tab pages and bookmarks and etc, but it just cuts to grey after. I tried: Reinstalling firefox Setting the 'Override the colours specified by the page with your selection above' to 'Never' Went to the troubleshoot mode, which, for some reason, wouldn't let me click anything I reset Firefox It does the same thing with Firefox nightly and other firefox browsers.

Help!!!
