Firefox doesn't sync automatically nor manually via "sync now" setting. Don't know what could be the problem, but it takes 4 to 5 days until things are refreshed. Any clue on how to fix this? Has this bug been reported yet?

When will Gecko-based Firefox Android increase the number of default search engines in 2025?

Currently it hosts only Big Tech namely Google and Microsoft Bing and DuckDuckGo, which is Bing and MSN results in DuckDuckGo and Qwant (same Bing results) latter which works only in the UK.

I'm using Gecko-based browsers like Fenix and Mull and Iceraven, and they all come with like 5 to 10 search engine options.

Adding new search engines is a mess and doesn't sync with Firefox account settings, so futile efforts.

Even Chrome allows us to select our search engine, if we are visiting it too much.

Is Firefox really privacy based browser or just Big Tech in Firefox like Google as default search engine out of the box, no asking which the XYZ user wants?

While browsing www.youtube.com, the site is not running smoothly. When I'm scrolling in the YouTube homepage, it's like cutting in the middle. On the other hand when watching YouTube shorts, when scrolling to a new video, it's like jumping and then loading, which seems extremely inconvenient. Overall the YouTube site is not working properly in Firefox mobile (Android 13). Note: I have tried the cookie delete option. Still persistent.

I have purchased a VPN plan from Mozilla and I would like to use this on Fedora.

I am having difficulty following the build instructions written on GitHub -

https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client

- is there some way that I may use Mozilla VPN on Fedora? I am not interested in whether or not I use their client directly - I just want to be able to use the VPN I paid for.

Will someone help me with simple instructions to utilize this?

How to export passwords from Firefox Android in readable format like CSV for other password manager apps like KeePass XC or AuthPass? 

Currently as I'm seeing all Gecko-based browsers especially on mobile not just Firefox but also Mull, Fenix, Waterfox and Iceraven, lacks this.

Is this intentional or should I just keep Chrome as my browser because to jump to Firefox, I need basic things to be covered, which I don't see, Mozilla Firefox team doing on its own. 

Other browsers like Opera have proper in-built system of password manager. 

How unfortunate.

Hi. FF Android seems not to show a context menu automatically when text gets marked/selected. By holding the finger longer then appears the popup context menu. It should be standard to get always this option when text gets marked/selected because its a logically following action.

And when moving by car or train or feet, it is impossible to hold a finger calm.

Thx Am I right here to ask for that?

While using Firefox for Android, I'd like to see additional detail of my browsing history. Mainly a timestamp and length of time spent at each page. Currently, I can view these choices; Today, Yesterday, Last 7 days, Last 30 days and Older. I can only assume these are listed chronologically in the order I visited each page. I'd like to know what time I arrived at the site and how long I was there, if at all possible.
