The camera just won't work on google meet. It works on zoom and teams just fine. The camera preview before joining a meeting on google meet also works just fine. Sometimes it works on private mode but not always. It works perfectly on other browsers. I have turned off extensions, removed protections and restrictions, created a whole other user account on my laptop and installed firefox on it just to test it out (without signing in/syncing settings) and it still won't work. It doesn't matter whether I'm signed into a google account or not or if it's my meeting or someone else is the host. On private mode it only works if I'm signed out but again not always. Not sure what's up

I'd like to know how to hide the previews for vertical tabs in Firefox. I've already unchecked the "Show preview image when hovering over tabs" option in the settings. Is it impossible to hide them?

Hey there Mozilla team, Love the new free built-in VPN for the browser and Kit. :D But I have problems with enabling the VPN. I am on Linux Kubuntu and the VPN cannot start. Funnily enough when i turn on Mozilla VPN on device level the Browser VPN does manage the enable itself.

Also I have a question about the Mozilla VPN browser extension. Is support for Linux still being worked on? And could we see the support being implemented soon?

Have a wonderful Day

First of all I've noticed that even logging in to the account management page doesn't work with my vpn on. So of course sync itself doesn't either. It works perfectly fine with it off though. Is there an IP address that I can add to split tunneling to allow only the sync/FF account manager through my vpn? Or another way I'm not aware of? I'd rather not have to allow the whole browser through my vpn if possible.

So whenever I visit a website, or websites, they get added up with my shortcuts on the homepage which gets really annoying because I have to manually dismiss them everytime. for instance, I've marked them with the green circles in the picture attached here. how do i stop them from appearing here?

I had a problem where FF 140.0 would not update, and in trying to get FF yo update, I used a re-install tool to which I was pointed in my problem report. This caused FF to wipe out my configuration, and I lost all my windows and tabs. I have gone to

    \Appdata\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Proifiles\abnfpged.default

cleared all of the data therein, and restored that directory from a backup I made last Monday. But I cannot get FF to use that directory. "about:profiles" shows only two profiles, but the Profiles directory has five profiles:

03/10/2026 09:39 AM <DIR> qf00ka5x.default 03/10/2026 09:39 AM <DIR> v842ceue.default-release 04/11/2026 09:16 PM <DIR> .. 04/11/2026 09:16 PM <DIR> . 04/12/2026 03:08 PM <DIR> abnfpged.default 04/12/2026 06:29 PM <DIR> jdfj91sd.default-release-1775960183850 04/12/2026 06:48 PM <DIR> f1jq4mlq.default

Only the profiles beginning with "j" and "f1" are seen in the "about:profiles" screenshot I have attached. And I have attached a screenshot of my profiles.ini file. Also, in the abnfpged.default directory I restored, where is the list of all of my open windows and tabs? FF used to keep that in a sessionstore.jsonlz4 file, but that file is only written when FF closes. I tried to save a copy when I was having problems, but I stored the copy in the same directory, which FF changed during the re-install process. Here is my profiles,.ini file:

[Install308046B0AF4A39CB] Default=Profiles/jdfj91sd.default-release-1775960183850 Locked=1

[Profile1] Name=default IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/f1jq4mlq.default

I have not worked with the ;profiles.ini file in many years, as my FF configuration has not had problems. Thanks.

If you do provide one, is it in real time can it see my screen at the same time as I'm using it? Does it use a sandbox or a slide deck? Does it use voice? Can it develop apps does it use sub agents? Thank you

Running Firefox 149.0.2 (64-bit) on MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) with Catalina (10.15.9).

I was in the process of updating a non-profit's website and had opened the html file on my computer. I noticed that the "y" (lower case) was missing from the days of the week. I checked the RUNNING website and saw the same thing. Checked he same website with Safari and the "y" suddenly appeared. Okay, so I then tried to add another "y" somewhere else on that page and ... nothing, so on a whim I added a "Y" to my Mac's file and guess what? It upper case Y displayed. Also noticed that on some web pages instead of showing me the characters in some words, it substitutes "ddddddd" for some words. What's up?

Mozilla has disabled the 1Password extension. I've used this version of 1Password extension for years without issue so do not share Mozilla concerns. How do I override the disabling to continue using 1Password as the risk is acceptable to me? It is more important to me to be able to use 1Passsword than Mozilla, so I'll switch to another browser if Mozilla won't let me make my own risk determination.

Firefox just updated a few days ago to version 149.0. Prior to, no issues. Now every time I enter a search term and hit enter. A new tab opens and the page is blank. It only happened after the update. Closing the tab and doing the same thing again opens a new page correctly.
