Default homepage is yahoo. Since the update to version 149, if I do a search from yahoo, the new tab that opens with the search result is blank most of the time. I have to click reload for the search results to show up.

Is anybody else having that problem? Seems to be yahoo search specific but not 100% sure.

Best Buy Tech support took control of my computer today to get my printer to scan to the computer. After that was done, I went to my FIREFOX hompage only to see it completely changed from the way it was and I am now trying to get it back.

All I want is the ability to have my weather in the upper right hand corner of my opening screen. It was that way then you people decide for some reason that it should belong as a Widget in the lower area of my opening screen. But sense I do now want all three of your Widgets, I am left with this very awkward looking screen. Then a new update was released and my weather was returned to the upper right area of my opening screen. Then today you people updated again, and the Widget was returned to the lower left area of my opening screen.

Since you people clearly can't make up your minds, is there any possibility that you could see your way clear to offering us (your users) the ability to select where we would like the Weather the appear? Please say "Yes". Thank you.

My Home page is a local HTML file featuring a CSS-based tabbed notebook holding links organized into various categories. When exiting FF, I always have this page as the active browser tab, so that on start-up it's still the active one in the event of multiple open browser tabs.

Until v151.0.4 (and still now with v152.0), if I exited FF with the active notebook tab (actually a styled radio button under the hood) in my CSS tabbed notebook something other than the first/leftmost tab, FF would restart with that being the active tab, but after a few seconds of CPU activity as the browser initialized the active notebook tab would switch to the first/leftmost one. (In my HTML I also have <input type="radio" name="tabs" checked> specified for this first/leftmost instance.)

Since the update, however, it remains stuck on the one from the last browser session as first displayed. I suppose I can live with this, but I do wonder what accounts for the change in behavior. If it's by design, where is it documented? If not ... maybe it calls for a bug report.

My home page has a Firefox image and the word "Firefox" at the top. That's new here, and I don't want it. It chews up too much real estate, but I can't find a way to get rid of it. Nothing in the Settings appearance choices affects it. It didn't used to be there. How do I get rid of it?

I did not really know what happened but every time I opened home page, it did not load. It was working before but suddenly it didn't. I have tried writing "about:home" into search bar and it returned nothing. Just a blank page and an empty search bar.

I've checked the settings and it should be fine. Nothing wrong with it. I've checked the flatpak version and its ok. I was able to open my home tab.

I am using Firefox 148.0.2 (64-bit) Debian .deb.

why not

New Tab is either the FF page or Blank? Just Like Goggle Chrome?? REALLY!!!???

If you plan to be "Chrome" by a different name, then why don't we all just move TO Chrome?

TRY not to be STUPID, Please.

When I long press shortcut and choose remove, it does not remove. Some will others won’t. I don’t think it is a sponser shortcut because I think I originally put it there.

After firefox update, start page changed to first photo i added here, second photo is how it was before, is there any way to get it back? Before update i had version 131.0b9, now its 136.0b1

I have used 4 rows of site icons on my home page for years. (Linux FF since 2013, various distros.)

After an update, they became tiny AND so close to the bottom that a zoom of even 110 percent was unacceptable. (I prefer 100 percent.) 100 cut off the labels at the bottom.

I deleted my search bar from homepage yesterday, and had already deleted top stories and weather years ago.

Several searches over the last few days have done nothing.

Screenshot of zoom at 110 and straight 100.

The new Firefox Home layout wastes screen space and pushes shortcut rows lower on the page. Please provide an option to restore the previous compact layout or remove the oversized centered Firefox logo. Productivity users need density and customization, not extra empty space.

I have to reduce the screen page size down to 67% to see the entire screen.

Hi Firefox Team,

I know how hard you guys work and I've used you almost exclusively since the beginning in 2003 and talked a lot of folks into switching to you over the years.

I'm so frustrated about your decisions to change the options for what we users want on our home page and new tabs. Seems I can only use a blank page or your default home page. And if I want my normal home page I need to click on the home icon. In the course of a day, that's a LOT of extra clicking or the alternative, typing my search query into a tiny URL bar.

Are you planning to change this? Or is this Mozilla control by default the new norm? I'm so sad to admit to be exploring Mullvad and Brave now. Never would have even considered it, even though I'm consciously weaning off other US digital products.

Thanks for any suggestions and for all you do. (Yes my IOS is up to date)
