Can I undo the "optimize for mobile" setting for my tablet? I'd like the pages to work more like they do on my computer than on my phone.

When I first started using my tablet, the browser seemed to function as it does on my computer. For example, Facebook messages would open within the Facebook page. Now, I… (read more)

When I first started using my tablet, the browser seemed to function as it does on my computer. For example, Facebook messages would open within the Facebook page. Now, I have to open the Facebook messenger app for those messages. I'd rather not have to do that. I'm thinking I may have clicked a button to optimize for mobile, but I can't figure out how to undo that. Please help.

Thank you.

I was literally overjoyed when I discovered the use desktop view as default setting under the site permissions settings in 133.0 when I installed it on my Android phone (not tablet). I enabled it, and it worked exactly as expected—fantastic!

Unfortunately, the next day it was gone again, and the browser's behavior is as if I never enabled this setting. Please, where did it go, and how do I get it back? Failing that, is there a configuration variable that can be set manually to achieve the same behavior?

How to disable home button icon on URL bar in Firefox Android like Chrome allows in 2025?

It takes up too much space and URL is hidden and unreasonable. In Chrome, all is optional and customisable.

Is Firefox team updating it to current standards of 2024-25?

With site permissions for location set to "ask to allow" I respond by allowing access to my location for a specific website, but it continuously reverts to "blocked" quickly and automatically on Firefox for Android. How do I fix this problem? I want this site to continue to access my location without intermittent blocking., as it has for more than one year without problems.
