I don't know who thought it was a good idea to put someone who is pro-AI in charge of the anti-AI browser. I'm on Firefox because it doesn't use AI. You want to add in the most foolish, expensive, environmentally destructive, money sink that none of the userbase wants? Fine. I don't have brand loyalty. You choose personal wealth over the health of our environment and community by shoveling AI stupidity at us, I will drop this browser like a lead weight and switch to the lesser known browsers. I hear Waterfox hasn't bought into the slop yet. Might be time to change over to a more mindful system.

I use Firefox specifically because I appreciate(d) the flexibility and the privacy. Default AI makes it significantly more difficult to customize the browser to my preferences (ie, zero AI anywhere) and threatens the privacy that Firefox is known and recognized for. This is an absolutely incomprehensible decisions; it is no longer a "trustworthy" browser if it incorporates AI. Why ruin a good thing??
Please stop adding AI to your browser. It is making it slower and is a data privacy concern for me as well as many others. If you do not remove them I will be switching b… (lire la suite)
Please stop adding AI to your browser. It is making it slower and is a data privacy concern for me as well as many others. If you do not remove them I will be switching browsers. AI is not only bad for the environment, it does not even do the features you want it to do correctly. Please remove AI from firefox, i have been using this browser for years and would hate to leave because you refuse to remove AI features nobody asked for.

I am using Firefox on my MacOS Tahoe. There is a persistent annoying issue where whenever I close (physically fold) my laptop screen and reopen it, Firefox will be frozen. It will be frozen in the sense that I am unable to interact with any tabs or anything until I manually quit Firefox and reopen it (which automatically reopens all my tabs), making it usable again. This doesn't happen every time I close and reopen my Mac, but it definitely happens the majority of the time and makes the browser hard to use.
I've attached a screenshot of what a new window looks like when Firefox is frozen. It looks just like a Firefox window when unfocused.
Notes:
Things I've tried that haven't fixed it:
Let me know if there's any more information I can provide or fixes I can try. Also let me know if I should go ahead and file a Firefox bug report for this. Thank you.

If I go to the profile folder, exit firefox then copy and paste the folder to a backup location. The attempted backup fails. Something about permissions as I recall. I have tried many things unsuccessfully. Something has changed that does not allow for the backup of profile folders. Adding a backup option to the profile manager would be nice. I noticed some people have found work-arounds but I need a straight-forward procedure for backing up my folders. No work-arounds please, just a simple procedure. May I ask for help with this issue?

My Profile Folders can't be backed up. Messages I receive while attempting a backup state that permissions are required to backup certain files. I'm working in an administrator account so that shouldn't be an issue and I use to backup my Profile Folders without an issue.

I have Linux OS Mint Cinnammon 22.2 and firefox 145.0.2 I have ticked "Save and auto-fill payment info" and my credit card ## are recorded. When I want to pay, the default credit card ## appear correctly, but if I click on them to apply, nothing happens. Every time I have to re-enter all the numbers ! Many thanks for your answer.

I have a chromebook with linux enabled and installed firefox according to mozilla's instruction - via the sudo get-apt command. The cursor changes from the default to a very small adwaita. I've spent hours googling this issue and everyone I've come across had used some third party repo or was trying to shove in their own custom cursor theme. Literally all I want is my regular cursor back, and I have no clue why mozilla would have a specifically set cursor for their browser instead of just having it default to os. I don't really know what I'm doing here, but I cannot begin to state how tired I am of messing with this dead-end issue.

I have an old Laptop which works perfectly for what I need, and I use Firefox for my Browser.
I had to shutdown my Laptop and everything seemed Ok on reboot. However, I can no longer access my Gmail account as I apparently "need Chrome" to get access...?
Do I? If so - how do I get it installed on my system?
Thank you

When I access a specific website the .css files hosted at http://cdn.ct-static.com/ don't load. The Network Tool console indicates that they time out. I have been told this is usually a network setup issue however if I use the MS edge browser the site loads. How do I troubleshoot this?

From "About" on the Firefox menu I am trying to download the update from 145.0.2 but it is stalled at 27.1 of 31.3 MB. The little pair of spinning arrows icon just keeps spinning without making any further progress. I'm on a 2020 iMac running Sonoma 14.5 My internet connection is still functioning. I'm wondering what I should do. Is there a way to just cleanly stop and start over? Or stop and continue.
