Autoplay (of video SOUND) is always set to OFF except in a few cases where it is set to ALWAYS ASK FIRST. Facebook reels often ignore this setting. How can I stop it. The same phone setting on my Galaxy phone covers both AUDIO and INCOMING PHONE CALLS (ringing). If I mute my phone I cannot hear it ring. If I don't Facbook blasts the entire room ... when it was never supposed to to do via the settings.

Hi,

Looking at my Firefox 147.0.1 settings for macOS 26.2 (Apple M1), I'm trying to adjust two settings:

-- I'd like to remove Languages -> English (GB) (its existence has odd side effects, like triggering United Airlines to offer fares in Pounds Sterling, and I'd prefer to just have English (US))

-- I'd like to disable Play Audio and Video for about:welcome (in regular and private windows)

I can see no way to accomplish this currently -- why?

Thanks.

Very often, Firefox asks at startup: “Should I open Firefox every time I restart my computer?” I don’t need this function, how can I remove this request forever?

There are only two buttons: 1. Yes, open Firefox 2. Not now :(

Was researching cookie management techniques in GROC where AI suggested I go to the DevTools feature in the Firefox browser, go to the Application tab & expand cookies in the side toolbar. However, I’m unable to find DevTools

Actually, given that this "feature" made it all the way through to prod, I seriously suggest you just fire absolutely everyone currently working for Mozilla and start over with entirely new people, and ideally have as one of your hiring criteria a sensible understanding that AI has no place in Firefox, or any other Mozilla project. Leaving aside the question of whether it's good or bad, it's simply irrelevant to what we're doing here.

Thanks for enshittifying one of the few parts of the internet that wasn't yet crap. Great job, well done Angus.

Initial setup and I login to FireFox, it stated that it would sync automatically; however in my settings I opted to not save password or payment information, how do I confirm it's not happening?

[article] This article claims there is an "AI Controls" section in Settings. This is not found in v 147.03 (up to date) for Mac. Please let me know how to disable all AI in Firefox.
