In about.config i set javascript.enabled false for most browsing, unless i really need to do otherwise (e.g. ecommerce). If i close the app (menu quit), and restart it, javacript.enabled is reset true. This behaviour is not replicated for other settings i may make, e.g. dom.storage.enabled, or permissions.default.image. Being Android i have no root so no possibility of creating a user.js to override Firefox ignoring my settings. This seems to be a bug. Version is Android Nightly version 121.0a1, 2023-11-05.

I'm wondering why FF doesn't have something built into the browser that will resize text when you zoom in. Right now, if I zoom in on text, it DOES get larger, but then it also goes outside the edges of the browser so that I have to constantly scroll left and right to read the article I did come across an add on, but come on. This is something basic that should be build into the browser:

Greetings. I bought a new phone and downloaded the latest version of FF for Android. I use Private Browsing mode on both phines. This new version has the Search Suggestions from Boommarks and I don't like it. It's too distracting for me. My question: How do I turn it off? Thank you.

Since Firefox nowdays is Multilanguage,but the downside is that when I choose one language( let us say English- UK or US).

Every time I visit any site it automaticly associate every site as if I were in England( or US). This also include ( based on my search history) that it also via default search for English websites. Since lagre multilanguage corporations have local websites as well.


But however in older versions it never had this issues. However for me it's quite disturbing( annoying). Since I myself live in Sweden( and isn't so interested of what happends in the states or england) Can some one please change( make correction).

I must disable popup asking to open link in another app l. I must stay in firefox, without this annoying popup appearing everytime on AliExpress. Even though I choose to never open links in outside apps, it keeps asking. Hell this is so annoying. The proposed solution does not fix it, the only way for me to get rid of the annoying message is to uninstall AliExpress, which I don't want to do, because I have two accounts and must use both for personal purpose. Please enable a way to diable at all this pop up without going to the app, as Must stay in firefox. Sincerely yours, J.M.

I'm running the latest version of firefox on my redmi note 12 with android 14. When I try to add a website to homepage, I get a pop up to name the shortcut, but when I click add, nothing happens, it just closes the menu, and no shortcut is added to my homepage. It used to work perfectly on my Mi A1 with android 9.
