Below I have attached two images, what it currently looks like, and an approximation of what it used to look like. Since the last update, the logo has been far lower down, and the shortcuts spaced out more (I believe.) It feels rather uncomfortable and difficult for everything to be on the lower half of the screen, whilst the tabs and bookmarks are on the top half of the screen. Is there a way to revert this change?

Have been a FireFox user for a dang long time, like over 20 yrs I think, but this is getting out of control what is going on with the browser!~ They First removed all the Un-Used short-cut tabs an left us with one over a year ago, then they forced it to the end a few months ago!~ Now they moved the Short-cuts up higher without even giving us the chance to lower them back down to better eye level, an the purple ring around them is not a good look either!~

I know this browser is free to use, but still it's like the government forcing things onto us without even the ability to say anything, you want people to be happy using ya Internet Browser, but never ask ppl their opinions on anything you do!~

What is it the PUBLIC can do to get this to stop or atleast be asked before anything is added so that way you do not end up loosing more users to goofle or other browsers like Internet Explorer??~~

new updated firefox. i had the four rows of most visited sites and they were centered and larger. now they aren't and close to the bottom of the page which is annoying.

After upgrading to 149.0.2 (64-bit), when starting FF or opening an new tab, the preferred URL is not loaded. It is configured in Settings/Home/New Windows and Tabs All previuos FF versions were OK with the same URl (https://search.yahoo.com/web/advanced)

On the new tab page I have set for 4 rows of shortcuts. In the fourth row I have 3 open spaces for tiles/shortcuts. There is no way to add the tiles whereas there was previously a tile that would show that said "+add shortcut". Given I have room in the row to add 3 shortcuts, how do I add tiles to allow for added shortcuts?

Hi, Lately I haven't been able to add a bookmark icon on my 4-row new tab page. There's still to empty spots I would like to fill but can't find the usual + button. Thanks for the help

Hello,

On the Firefox home page, there are shortcuts. I have pinned some of these shortcuts. When I click on a shortcut, it opens in the current tab. I would like to have the shortcut I click, open in a new tab, without having to Ctrl+click Is this possible?

hi there

after the last firefox update i am unable to access my webmail at first, but now i have lost my firefox home page that has all my saved icons/shortcuts to frequent web pages.

at the moment i am using having to use another browser to access my emails.

if i want to go through the history/bookmark tabs i can find some of my saved web pages. still cant access my webmail this way.

i am running windows 10 for the moment.

thanks for your help.

I'm an 81 yr old white male. I've chosen Firefox as my browser for 2 reasons. I feel that it keeps me relatively safe, and I enjoy the stories you choose for the home page. The problem is that over the years,, many stories on the homepage require the reader to subscribe to the story's source in order to read it.

For a man my age, that's nuts.....subscribe just to read that one story.....not gonna do it. Consequently, I've had to look elsewhere that which I wish to read. I recommend that you research other periodicals that might allow reading without the required subscription.

Firefox on macOS. After most recent update, when I open new tabs I get

Oops, something went wrong loading this content. Refresh and try again

I went to settings to make sure Firefox Home was the default loaded on New Tabs, which it is. How do I fix this?

I need more Quick Links. 32 Quick Links is not enough. I am a project manager and have the need to be able to add an unlimited number of Quick Link Icons my main page. Is there a way to do that and if so how do I add more to my main page. If the answer is no, then when will I be able to add more Quick Links.

That doesn't work as I've already maxed out the Quick Links and I have hundreds of other bookmarks I use on a regular basis. Please advise when addition Quick Links above 32 are available. The Quick Links are one of the most valued items with Firefox and the need to add more as needed would be the most helpful feature associated with fire fox besides the tabs.

The quick links on the home page should be exactly for that QUICK LINKS! not for visited sites! also you only have four rows. OPERA have unlimited. To make matters worse, the stupid sites that I visited only once cannot be removed.

Title.

Keyboard focus properly defaults to the address bar for new normal windows, and new tabs both normal and private. It is ONLY in new private windows that the address bar does not auto-grab keyboard input.

The address bar is highlighted as though it SHOULD have input focus, but typing does nothing until I click in the address bar manually.

This is unfathomably annoying. I've tried fiddling with various settings in about:config, and I've tried running in troubleshoot mode to rule out extensions causing the issue. Also tried a fresh firefox profile and the issue persisted.

On my windows 11, when I open a new tab on my Firefox, not only do I get my apps history; there is window (widget) where news stories etc. run. I would like to get rid of this widget.
