How can I prevent firefox from DELETING all my bookmarks EVER AGAIN! FUCK!!!!! They did some kind of screwy update and reverted my bookmarks back by 6 months and I can't get them back. And yes, I saw all the backups they "stored" but they are not in there.

On my homepage dismissing suggestion after suggestion of random websites i've visited singular times. It's creepy as hell the way firefox chooses random shit from my history to suggest to me. Remember that wikipedia article you read last week? They'll suggest that page instead of suggesting wikipedia itself? It's not helpful, I'm not navigating the web quicker because of it, if i wanted to find something from my history I'd search through my fucking history, it's creepy firefox's homepage algorithm tries to do that for me. It's annoying that I can click "dismiss" on a page, and it'll just show up at the end of the list! I fucking hate it and I spent way too long dismissing page after page after page until it finally suggested non-creepy links that i could pin so I never get a fUCKING suggestion for a goddamn reddit discussion I read five months ago ever again. It'd be nice if there was just a way to choose the fucking links that go there, or to fucking tell firefox to stop suggestion certain things outright, but who at mozilla actually gives a shit about what the user wants? I saw what y'all did with the mobile app, ya'll hate your userbase and having a functioning product god damn.

I want to setup the VPN in firefox but the instructions refer to the VPN icon which is not visible to me. When I try to add it to the toolbar the instructions say to click more tools from the menu at the top right, but there isn't a selection called more tools.

Hello!

For few minutes it says "Performing a TLS handshake to youtube.com", then this message appears:

==

Secure Connection Failed

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

What I did so far:

1. Deleted cache and site data for youtube.com. 2. Checked if date and time setting is set to auto and synced it just in case. 3. Tried restarting firefox in safe mode. 4. Tried turning off ocsp stapling. 5. Deleted ALL cache and site data. 6. Tried creating a new profile. 7. Set HTTPS-only mode to "don't enable" and added youtube.com to exceptions

I do use DoH. I can't not use it. YT won't work without it for sure. Provider is google: https://dns.google/dns-query

Everything works fine in Chrome (yes, I use DoH there too).

Today, when opening Firefox, it ran an update (to Ver. 151.0.2) and crashed. It attempted to restart, but instead ended up creating an "Old Firefox Data" folder on my desktop. How can I easily reinstall my previous setup from this data?

Hello, I have been experiencing tab crashes while watching MSNOW at 4pm eastern. These have also occurred in troubleshooting mode. I have submitted the error codes and pasted the most recent five here. I also received an error code which to the best of memory stated to possibly reinstall firefox. Any assistance would be appreciated. Regards Bruce Caress

the resolution offered to my earlier question about removal of logo did not help and the youtube video also did not help. What am I doing wrong? Please consider me a tech 'idiot'.

Bonjour, Quand je suis connecté à mon compte Mozilla, je ne vois pas apparaître l’icône VPN en haut à droite, et je ne la vois pas non plus dans la personnalisation de la barre d'outil. Merci pour votre aide. Cordialement

Hello,

In Firefox (up to date), the “module” (right-click) that allows for direct translation is great, and I want to thank you for it.

However, do you plan to keep the “Windows 98-style” stamp-like format of the dialog box that opens for much longer? In 2026, on 27-inch screens, it’s honestly very annoying—even if you can zoom in just a tiny bit, it’s a pointless step and not ergonomic at all! It’s the little details like this that make us look elsewhere!

Thank you in advance for your understanding!
