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 have a Tablet which I use for everything and I often need to browse and use websites. One day all websites were suddenly completely off in scaing. It's like I am browsing on my phone, but only looking at the top third of the website. I don't thing that I have changed any settings as it was just like that the next day.

it's exhausting and seriously disruptive

My Firefox for Android has gone nuts. Everything shows in tiny fonts and all formatting has been lost. By that I mean that entire web pages are now showing where previously only pertinent sections were showing.

I've attached a screen shot of my Yahoo email page. Previously only the inbox showed with 20 emails to a page. Now the whole page shows. I have no idea what changed, or what I inadvertently changed, to get this result.

Hi, my browser on my tablet keeps making all tabs stuck in desktop mode with no way to turn it off. It started happening today when it updated to the latest Firefox Android 133. The desktop mode toggle is set to off, and when I click it it still is set to off and it's still in Desktop mode. When I copy the URL to another tab I can turn desktop mode off, but that gets reset to on whenever the browser is killed in the background.

I've tried force closing the app and clearing cache, any help would be appreciated.

Even though destop site mode in the pull down menu on the right is turned off it's affecting my site like it's turned on. I also can't turn it on to turn it off since it just stays off when I click on it. Also I'm not sure if this helps but everything now opens as a destop site instead of phone site when I open something new.

Horizontal menu on a web site changed suddenly, no change made to web site

Hello!

A web site I frequent, livebyliving.org, has a menu structure running horizontally across the top of the pages. Each option has a pull-down sub-menu. Yesterday afternoon or evening that menu turned into the three bar menu icon in the upper corner of the pages and the horizontal menu disappeared. When I click the three bar icon the entire menu structure is displayed vertically.

Firefox on my Android tablet was updated November 26. I used the site in question numerous times since that update and the menu was displayed correctly. It displayed correctly yesterday morning, Nov 29. In the evening, when I went to use the site, the menu behavior had changed. I also note the change when using my Android phone. The last Android update for my tablet was February 6, 2023.

I tested with Chrome and Google today and they display the menu correctly so it seems as if something specific to Firefox changed yesterday.

I've attached three screen shots. The first is the correct behavior with the horizontal menu. The second image shows the same page with the changed menu presentation. The third image shows the sub-menu presentation after whatever changed.

Any thoughts would be most appreciated!

Firefox on my Android smartphone is well synchronized with Firefox on the computer. I can see that both contain the same list of logins and passwords. When I must log in other applications, there is a notice that appears saying "unlock faierferox" followed by the sign of fingerprints. But when I try to have my fingerprint recognized, nothing happens.

What should I do?

Thanks for helping.
