Recent update nuked all my custom containers, and closed every page that was currently open within those containers (pretty devastating bug).

Now, I go to add sites to the new custom containers I made to replace the earlier ones. When I go Manage Containers > pick a custom container > "manage site list ..." and there is no list. Just a blank window.

linux, firefox, and duck duck go search engine---i want to stop picture in a picture. include every instruction like if i am to use the address bar, where do i find that?

How can I make sure the Vertical Tabs sidebar stays visible in full screen mode?

It worked this way by default until the [154.0 release](https://www.firefox.com/en-US/firefox/154.0/releasenotes/#note-792047):

> Fixed the Vertical Tabs sidebar staying visible in full screen mode. It now hides along with the toolbars and reappears when the cursor moves to the edge of the screen.

Is there a config setting that re-enables the old behavior? I want the address bar to be hidden in full screen mode, but not the Vertical Tabs sidebar.

In some multi-line text fields:

• when I begin typing, a menu drops down or pops up.

Each menu option is a previously-typed phrase, not necessarily recent.

Is this a hidden feature of Firefox?

It's very recently evident with at least three websites:

• old Reddit, pictured at https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@grahamperrin/117120940452711262
• Mastodon, pictured here and at https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@grahamperrin/117124332180878790
• here – support.mozilla.org – when I began typing.

Reproducible with multiple Firefox profiles. Also evident with Firefox in safe mode.

Not evident with Microsoft Edge.

At a glance, I don't see anything relevant in release notes – https://www.firefox.com/en-GB/firefox/154.0/releasenotes/

It's possible that the feature was inadvertently enabled in response to an unknown combination of keys (shortcuts) as described in Mastodon.

so i installed the atarashii extension, but it didn't work for me, so i deleted it, then rebooted my pc to notice that it's running, and i can't unistall it, i disabled it but for some reason it still works

I love having the VPN Add-on on my Windows 11 laptop and now I see that there's a plug in for my Android Tablet, too.

I see there's options to turn OFF the VPN, but i don't need it on all the time. To save the data limit, I keep the VPN turned off.

There are some sites that I log into that require me to either not be from Australia amd some I need to be VPN linked to specific countries, like the UK or USA.

Will there be a place to be able to list particular websites to turn the VPN ON for, and, where needed, specify a country to connect to?

Environment

   • Firefox 153.0.1 (64-bit)
   • Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS
   • Wayland session
   • Input method: IBus
   • Keyboard layouts:
       ◦ US
       ◦ Bulgarian (bg+bekl)
   • Graphics:
       ◦ AMD Radeon Graphics (renoir)
       ◦ WebRender (Software)

Summary When typing a multi-word search query in Bulgarian into the center search field on the Firefox New Tab page (about:newtab), the first word disappears immediately after pressing the Space key. The issue occurs only in the in-page search field. Typing exactly the same text in the Firefox address bar works correctly. Steps to reproduce

   1. Open a new tab (about:newtab).
   2. Click inside the center search field.
   3. Switch to the Bulgarian keyboard layout.
   4. Type the first word, for example:   български
   5. Press the Space key.

Actual result The first word disappears completely. The search field becomes empty and the caret remains after one blank space. Typing continues normally from the second word onward. Interestingly, pressing Ctrl+Z immediately restores the missing first word, indicating that Firefox performs an undoable edit operation rather than simply ignoring the input. Expected result The first word should remain in the search field after pressing Space. Additional observations

   • The problem does not occur when typing in the Firefox address bar.
   • The problem does not occur on google.com or in other web page input fields.
   • The problem is reproducible in:
       ◦ Troubleshoot Mode
       ◦ a brand new Firefox profile
   • No third-party extensions are installed (only the built-in OpenH264 codec is present).
   • Setting

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSearch = false removes the in-page search field, therefore the issue disappears because the affected widget is no longer present.

   • Disabling

browser.search.suggest.enabled does not change the behaviour.

   • If the address bar already contains text before clicking into the New Tab search field, the issue may no longer reproduce. This suggests that the bug could be related to focus handling or interaction between the New Tab search widget and the address bar.

Reproducibility Always reproducible on this system. Notes The issue appears to be specific to the Firefox New Tab search widget (about:newtab) rather than to the operating system, keyboard layout, input method, or user profile. ____________________________________________________________ The text above was created following extensive discussion and numerous tests, in collaboration with ChatGPT.

I just recently installed the VPN on Firefox. It hadn't shown up because of my privacy settings. It works fine except for the United States connection. When I choose the other countries, it works fine, but when I choose United States, it still shows Japan (where I live). It still shows Japan, but it does have an effect. It changes it to Tokyo, where I don't live. So, the vpn is having some effect, but it is just not connecting to the United States. Why is that?
