I just did a Google image search on my pixel 8 and saw that all the image results were forced to "fit width" so I can only really see 1 result at a time. I have the "Google Search Fixer" installed and dialsabling it returns the image search view to gallery. But when I enable to addon it goes back to that "ft to wish" view.

I've looked through the options and tried searching for similar problems/solutions and found nothing. How do I return my Google image search view to gallery? It's really obnoxious and frustration to only be able to see 1 image at a time when searching.

Hello

I am writing to report a problem with the context menu in Firefox for Android. I am very dissatisfied with how it is designed and I would like to have more control over it.

First of all, there are too many options from other apps that I do not use, which clearly take up space and I want to remove them, but I cannot. They are irrelevant to my browsing experience and they clutter the menu.

Secondly, I do not like that despite the bulkiness of the context menu, it only displays 2-3 items, and to get to the one I need, I have to scroll through the menu several times, which is extremely inconvenient. For instance, I often want to copy text, but this option is hidden at the bottom of the menu. It would be much easier if it were visible at the top or have the ability to build the context menu for my needs.

In other words, there is a bulky and inconvenient menu, which also has unnecessary and annoying options that I cannot do anything about, because apparently, the ability to customize and change the context menu is removed in the Android version.

Hello,

Quite à few month ago, after update, my new Firefox for Android does not allow me to access to the print option. I cannot find the page nor the tools options using my mobile. When using edge, chrome or other browser, I still do have this option and therefore able to print pdf copies of the resources I do want to archive. Is it possible to know why these printing options are unaccessible on Firefox using Android ?

Regards

Disable opening of new tabs when selecting a newly visited page in the URL field

How do i disable FF for android to open new tabs when i pick a recently visited page when i stand in the address field of an existing tab? If i starts typing an URL it opens in the existing tab, but if i pick a recently opened page, it opens a new tab. Even if i pick the very same site that's already open in a tab, it opens it in a new tab! This behavior is absolutely idiotic! If i want to open a new tab, i open a new tab. If i want to change the content of an existing tab, i go to the address field of that tab and pick whatever page i want to open in that tab! That's how FF on windows works, that's how it should work on android!

I realise this is a bit of a niche problem, but it's really annoying.

I use a British newspaper crossword site, https://www.theguardian.com/crosswords

The crossword consists of a lot of 1-character text fields, and when you type into one of them, it auto-advances to the next one. Firefox on Android always tries to put the new box that the cursor is in as close to the center of the display as possible. This takes 1/2 a second, during which Firefox misses the next letter I'm trying to type.

Either I need to slow my typing down, or I need to stop Firefox auto-centering the new text box.

Is this possible?

The firefox app always rotates to landscape mode if I turn my phone. I can find a setting that locks the screen for the phone itself, and it appears to stop other apps from rotating, but firefox doesn't seem to care if I have screenlock set to on and just keeps on rotating.

Being a decade user of Firefox I must say that I started to hate it because the last editions hide the choice for enabling or disabling javascript. The stupid comand "about:config" leads nowhere and all previous answers are absurd. Why Mozilla decided to hide the option " turn on / turn off" javascript? It turned a previously great navigator into a stupid user unfriendly useless software. I use the internet for over 40 years and Firefox has always been my favourite. What obscure financial reasons made developers decide to hide the simple option of earlier editions? Please put back the "on/off" option for javascript. Untill then I'll use Chrome.
