Firefox Community Forum

I've always loved Firefox because it's open source, privacy-focused, and developed by a nonprofit rather than a company whose business depends on advertising. Despite all of that, it seems like relatively few people use it compared to other browsers.

Why do you think Firefox hasn't become more popular? Is it mainly because of marketing, website compatibility, user habits, or something else? I'd be interested to hear the community's thoughts.

I have Windows 11 in this Thinkpad!! Why was using FireFox which I guess is out of business? So now I need a way to get Gmail, but Google Chrome has pop-ups that are taking up 25% of my screen space!!! Why? Help? should I go to Best Buy? What to ask? What did I do wrong? I'm 81. (Hate to tell age!) What to do? Thanks, Terry

iv'e been using ff to recover my google account and have gone between the android phone and windows 11 ,i have been having issues and not finished yet , should i be using the ff for android or windows?

I suspected I had hit a "translate" somehow, but with further inspection I think I may actually have been compromised. I'm using Firefox, but the problem follows me even if I switch to Chrome or smilar.

Can you help? Tks!

Mozilla and Firefox and getting into email used to be so easy until the new Mozilla. I am lost. How do I get into aol.com?

Hello everyone,

I would like to ask for clarification regarding the distribution of Firefox through third-party packaging methods.

As I understand it, Mozilla's trademarks and branding are protected, and in some cases official permission may be required to distribute Firefox under the Firefox name and branding.

Within the Ubuntu Touch community, there is a method called "Crackle" that can repackage existing applications and make them available as installable "Clickable" packages on the platform. One of the applications that has been repackaged in this way is Firefox.

However, this Firefox package is currently not available in the Ubuntu Touch software store because there is concern that distributing it may require explicit permission from Mozilla.

My question is therefore:

Does a project or community need Mozilla's permission to distribute a repackaged version of Firefox through a software store? If so, what would be the correct process for obtaining such permission? Alternatively, if the software is merely being repackaged to provide an installation method on another platform, without modifying Firefox itself, is additional permission still required?

We would appreciate any clarification regarding Mozilla's policies on redistribution, repackaging, and trademark usage in this context.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

What have you done to Firefox ,so many issues it makes me sad that the best browser in the world has been wrecked. After 2+ decades of using this app I am not sure if I can keep using this blotted app any more. This is not a swiss army knife stop making it "MORE" and just work on making it a great browser. I'm so sad :( for what you have done to it. Uses way too much of the computers resources I might as well be mining for bitcoin with the amount of resources it is using. I know you all will not change anything and that makes me sad.
