As in the title, even with the AI Chatbot feature disabled, the keybind still opens the menu and it turns itself back on after any restart. I do not use AI, will never, and am tired of the push of this BS in life. I have keybindings that interfere with this and I'm not changing them when I should be able to turn the feature OFF and have it STAY OFF.

When performing search in search bar I want search results to open a new tab. The current behavior, either I 1. Manually open a new tab then perform search 2. Search results are displayed in the current tab

Greetings

It has been 5 years since Chrome introduced tab grouping. Meanwhile, the devs decided to start working on AI instead of getting this done ASAP. My workflow is completely dependent on Firefox so I can't simply change to another browser, the extensions available are not useful for me and I really miss this feature. Since this feature appeared on Nightly I've installed it and my experience just got a lot better, however, Nightly is just too unstable for me. Therefore, is there any way that I can cherry pick from Nightly this one feature that's totally working to my stable Firefox build through the browser itself without having to go to git/source code?

I really wouldn't like to wait another don't know how many years so they can get this done. I guess that my question would also be useful for other features that people are interested, that were already developed and that haven't been released yet.

The great and mighty Firefox that lords it over all other browsers about privacy has far too many opt-out features and options. I'm happy to know I participated in 22 studies before I found the toggle to turn it off, whatever the Hell those studies are. I haven't used Firefox in 13 years and this is the sort of non-sense I return to?

I don't actually want an answer, I just needed to complain.

(btw my browser is Firefox Nightly) Don't get me wrong, I love having vertical tabs. It's less busy than the horizontal tabs and I can look through my tabs more quickly. But, the way it's implemented sucks - It makes the layout of the webpage pop anytime I use it; there is no keyboard button attached to opening and closing the tab (I have to go through my horizontal bar to open my vertical bar); and recently my browser forgets the sidebar settings, meaning I have to re-check the "Hide tabs and sidebar" setting.

Bonus request Can the sidebar just go over the webpage (i.e. like the application menu) instead of squishing it? I'm ok with having some webpage features temporarily covered if it means I don't have to see the screen pop into a new rectangular shape every time I switch tabs.

I use translation A LOT. (I'm learning a foreign language.) It would help to be able to move or resize the results window. Right now, it covers the original foreign language text. I want to compare the translation with the original text and the fixed size and position of your results window makes that a lot more difficult.

turned on firefox today to find it had been updated. new page proudly p[roclaims that i can now edit pdf's in firefox, which is great because i want to be able to collate pdf files. i walked away from adobe years ago because they're just as evil as google-

but the 'try it now' link opens a page that is just an image of a form that looks like a joke [?] a letter to [fill out?] that seems dumb and a waste of time: https://assets.mozilla.net/wnp135-en/wnp-fx135-en.pdf

was i silly to expect seeing a privacy-assured web application to upload pdf's and edit them?

but this page does nothing, one can do nothing with it at all. was it supposed to be something one can actually type into the fields? if so, didn't anybody at mozilla test it first?

what is this?

Lately I've had to reload/refresh pages more frequently because of download issues. In order to the in FF I need to press the F5 key. To do the same thing in either Edge or Chrome all I need to do is right click and a little popup screen shows me the reload/refresh right there. Much more convenient to use. FF should use a similar technique.

And I thought that was pretty good. But the new vesion is awful. I seem to have losy all control of things like a dedicated homepage and so on.

AS you now seem to believe that you can run things for me, you can equally do without me. Tell me, which is less awful, Edge or Safari?

Useless!

I use Firefox Beta on Android. Recently there was a change so that a second bar appeared on the screen. I have the URL bar at the top of the screen, and suddenly a second bar appeared at the bottom of the screen with back, forward, tab and new tab buttons. I got used to this and really liked it. However it has now disappeared. I am wondering if there is a setting which I can use to get the second bar back, but I don't know where to start looking. Is there changelog for beta releases which I could look at to work out what this bar even was?

Thanks.

You haven't provided an off switch for this "thumbnail preview image of the webpage" on my taskbar? I don't want anything dropping down from my task bar on hovering over it.

This is a new thing, that Firefox for some reason thought was a good idea. Mouse hovering on my taskbar, and have a drop down thumbnail preview image of the webpage?

Thank you all in advance...  :)

Latest update reduced the size of tiles on my new tab page. they're too small now to read the letter or custom image. And only a few letters of the name of the site below the tile are visible. Not enough to know what the tile is for.

How do I return them to their normal size?

The keyboard shortcut L of "copy link" in right menu over a link is inconvenient for most right-handed people. I want it back to old keyboard shortcut A.

After new version 134 update, the shortcut L to A is not working again.

I posted 2 links in 2023 and 2021, but they are not working now. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1333526 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1433785

Could you please fix this bug?

Thank you so much! Brian
