Hi - Recently when I was on either my desktop or laptop I saw a notification that the sidebar would be going away. I can't seem to find any information on that now though. Will the sidebar still be going away soon? I for one would like to say that I enjoy that feature and would like to see it stay an option on desktops/laptops. If it does go away, how do we access bookmarks and synced tabs? Is there anything I need to do ahead of it possibly going away? Thanks in advance for your help!

See attachment, some sites are not loading correctly at all, which ironically includes the mozilla sign in page. I also noticed it on camelcamelcamel.com. See attachments.

I already tried clearing cookies etc. Unchecking the "allow sites to choose their own fonts" fixes it but obviously I don't really want that disabled. I switched off Chrome recently so I'm already quite disappointed tbh.

I've tried to import all the passwords I had saved on Brave, which I am leaving. There's one way which is in Firefox itself, where the little icons spin and it says passwords and other things have been saved. But the passwords have not come over. I've gone to several AI engines, and they have me create HTML or .csv files, but these aren't working either. When I tell AI this, I get suggestions so complicated I'd have to be an expert to use.

Setting a custom search option as the default search doesn't seem to stick.

I created a custom search option for the No-AI version of DuckDuckGo but Firefox seems to be periodically resetting it back to regular DuckDuckGo. I haven't been able to catch when it happens (my best guess is that it's getting reset after Firefox updates are applied but I can't test that until the next update happens) but it has happened multiple times. It stays as the default through exiting and restarting Firefox, but at some point it always seems to sneak back to using regular DuckDuckGo and I can't figure out how or why.

It isn't deleting the "DuckDuckGo No-AI" option when this happens, but it is changing the default search back to regular DuckDuckGo.

Hi,

I have saved websites with save as and when I try to open the saved page, that page opens for about 1-2 seconds and then goes to the home page for that site, where you can search for information?

For example, when you open a saved job from Indeed:com, the job opens for about 1-2 seconds and then goes to the page in the attached file.

Have a great day!

Regards, Daniel Eklund

Hello, I have a few rows of website icons on my home screen for quick access to my most used sites. The rows were always spread across the screen so that the icons were a convenient size, and the text (i.e. labels) under the icons were complete and readable ... until yesterday. Now the icons are pushed together into a smaller area of the screen. Not only are the icons small, but the labels under many of them are truncated in order to fit into the smaller space. I did not make any changes to my settings so I don't know how or why this has happened. I am hoping that there is a way to restore the home page to its former state. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks for any help!

For 24 hours now I have not been able to connect to Facebook via Firefox browser on my laptop at all. I can connect on my phone, but not my laptop. I've made sure there are no extensions on my browser, my firewall is off, all cookies and cache have been cleared, I even Uninstaller Firefox and reinstalled it. When I try to bring up Facebook, nothing happens. It won't even bring the page up. All other websites work fine. I can't even bring up Facebook to clear the caches in Facebook per the troubleshooting guide. It says to open Dacwbook and click the lock on the address bar, but I can't even open Facebook. What am I missing here?

"Close multiple tabs": ONLY right tabs is useful (for me). How can I adapt the menu?

FF used to have a "Close right tabs" menu point. EXCELLENT. Fast. Useful. Since some time, feature creep has expanded that into "Close several tabs" and the sub-menu close right tabs close left tabs close all tabs

Minor point: I use close right all the time, never though close left or close all ("Close all" would be "move to start", then "close right", anyway) So, I go one level further down for nothing added.

Major point: Inadvertently closing to the left or closing all destroys a lot of tabs I do not want to go.

This new "feature" is annoying and harmful. At the very least, developers should ask users whether they actually want that stuff. Before spending/wasting time on it.

Now, "close left" and "close all" being unfortunately present: Is there a way to remove the two dangerous options and stay - as before - with just "Close right tabs"?

Without any change made on my part, effective May 18, have been denied access to the web. This even includes long time bookmarked important investing/banking, etc. Have checked macOS Privacy & Security settings but not aware of any blocking there. Has recent Firefox update changed things? I have not updated Firefox updates for some time.
