Forum communautaire Firefox

Under settings / Data collection.... everything in Data Collection is turned on... I had turned it all off.

So Firefox overwrote my settings with an update I guess - nobody else has access to my PC or Mobile and I certainly didn't do it. They turned on Send technical and integration data, turned on Studies, turned on Daily Usage Ping, turned on crash reports.

Its pretty disappointing - this is the sort of stuff MS or Apple do. It breaks trust. If they are changing this then what else do they change that I cannot see. I suppose I need to see about a different browser.

None of these sites can access the camera, and say that I blocked access even though the popup never appeared:

https://meet.google.com https://webcamtests.com/ https://webcammictest.com/ https://app.zoom.us/test

Interestingly, webcamtests.com says "A web camera was detected." -- but still can't access it. Chrome can access my camera just fine.

Fedora 43, XFCE. Latest updates applied

Names of screen parts are not clearly known to everyone. The ribbon along the top with back button, and web address, lacks the symbol to access the pull down menu for bookmarks. A very convenient feature that seems to be lost. Spent a long time trying to find it last year on a different machine. Convoluted process. Now not finding it.

I'm struggling to disable this behavior of firefox. When I type "something: text", it's opening a pop-up asking "Open link with System Handler?".

I would rather just search the internet for "something: text".

How can I do that?

I've tried to play with parameters like network.protocol-handler.expose.something network.protocol-handler.app.something network.protocol-handler.external.something network.protocol-handler.warn-external.something

but didn't manage to do it

I'm exploring Steam Deck desktop mode more and I'm running into issues with Firefox not rendering some videos on my personal website. I wasn't sure if it was a Steam Deck, KDE Plasma, Firefox, or an issue with something else, so I tested the same website with Vivaldi and the video played without any issues. This makes me feel like it's probably Firefox, but not totally sure yet.

I've already tried adjusting the autoplay media permissions for the website from the default to "Allow Audio and Video" in case that was doing something. I've also tested in Troubleshoot mode to see if the one extension I have installed was causing any issues and that didn't change anything either. Any other ideas I can try? Or, is there some way to determine if this needs a bug fix/there's nothing I can do on my end?

In recent activity if I click the kebab menu and select Delete from history the thumbnail disappears to reappear again after a couple of seconds. Only after repeatedly clicking Delete from history the activity actually disappears.

Is this normal behaviour?

I've just switched to Fedora 43 KDE plasma from Windows. On Windows, everything was totally find with videos on Firefox. After migration I kept having an error message "The media playback was aborted due to a corruption problem or because the media used features your browser did not support." not only on one site (else it could have been the site). After searching for solution here and on the Net, I found out that it's not related to Fedora but to Firefox when using Radeon RX7700XT on Linux (idem with several distros). And indeed, when installing other browser and testing them there was no problem, even with LibreWolf. So can you please take action as I like Firefox and I would not like to have to move everything to an other browser. And it seems that this problem has been around for at least two years ... which you should be ashamed of.

my favorite browser firefox isnt enough help to keep my privacy secure (Its 100% confirmed)

I just learnt that my internet provider is blocking some domain like web.telegram.org which is very annoying. The solution i found on internet is vpn or tor browser.

Am i expecting something from firefox that it cant help me with?

A free vpn or tor browser like functionality?

I am so sorry to go away from it but look like if there is no way firefox can help me secure my privacy then i will have to.

Please try to be friend and help like a friend
