Typing about:config in the address bar does not bring up a list of configuration files. All it does is produce a google search list of YouTube and Mozilla help sites. How can I access Firefox configuration files so I can stop websites from refreshing?

Some PDFs do not save/print properly. They are displayed correctly, but that is all.

For these problematic PDFs, Share > Print does not do anything, i.e. no print dialog box or error message.

Share > Save to files does appear to work, but the result is an empty PDF file, typically 4-7 KB.

I think the affected files are those generated for me, eg bank statements and receipts. The problem has existed for a long time on multiple new iPhones and iPads with up-to-date Firefox iOS/iPadOS (for example iPhone 15 Pro with iOS 17.6.1). On my MacBook Air it all works fine.

ARRGH!!! Firefox used to be good! I want to use it for the little browsing I'm forced to do on the phone because I think it's pretty secure, but it is really impossible to deal with the way you all have the tabs arranged!

I open the app to find a tab I've recently used, to show someone something and the tabs are gone. There's a box with a number, and the tabs are in there, but in a totally inconvenient format where anyone who is with me can see all the pages I have open as I scroll through to find the one I want to show them. It's very annoying.

So instead of just being able to scroll the tabs back and forth and choose the one I want, where it's just the tabs with descriptions in type so small nobody but me could read them, I have to open that effing stupid page and then angle my phone, so curious clients or family or others who happen to be next to or behind me can't see all the tabs I have open. It's awkward and weird.

I just don't need people giving me a hard time about, or even trying to discuss with me, politics or art or anything else I've opened but don't choose to share with them. Your design makes it so I sometimes have to. Seriously Mozilla, what the eff are you people thinking?

I don't want to be confined to some developer's idea of how I should be browsing. Just give us choices, Mozilla!
