I am using Firefox on Linux Ubuntu 26.04. I normally work with multiple tabs. Then I quit Firefox with all tabs open at the point of quitting. Some times on the rare occasion there can be a forced quit due to some issues. In my settings I have configured it not to open the previous tabs. In fact I want a blank page. But whenever I reopen Firefox, it opens those tabs and tries to reload which is annoying. Some of these pages take a long time to reload, and why would I want to look at tabs which I already have read. Or if it crashes due to some website on a tab why reopen something that crashed in the place ? Can you fix this. Thanks.

Trouble using private containers with the new Floorp update (Version 12.16.3)

Hiii, I am using Floorp 12.16.3@153.0 on Debian 13 with KDE Plasma. Since the latest update, navigation from Floorp’s Private Container no longer stays inside the container.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open a new tab in Floorp’s Private Container. 2. Type either a URL or a search query in the address bar. 3. Press Enter or click the arrow button. 4. Instead of loading the address in the current container tab, the browser creates a new regular tab outside the container.

The new tab does not show the container indicator and uses my normal browsing cookies. However, clicking one of the shortcuts displayed on the new-tab page correctly loads the website inside the Private Container.

I have already tried the following:

  • Confirmed that `browser.urlbar.openintab` is set to `false`.
  • Confirmed that `browser.search.openintab` is set to `false`.
  • Restarted the browser.
  • Disabled Floorp Start.
  • Opened `https://example.com` inside the Private Container and then entered another URL or search query in the address bar. It still opened a new regular tab.
  • Tested by pressing only Enter, without Alt or any other modifier key.

Expected behavior: entering a URL or search query should navigate within the current Private Container tab.

Actual behavior: a new regular, non-container tab is created.

This previously worked correctly and appears to have started after updating to Floorp 12.16.3, based on Firefox 153. Is this related to a change in Firefox 153’s container behavior, or is it likely to be a Floorp-specific bug? Please help, I'm a huge floorp fan :(

The following content is machine translated: The passkey feature (login via QR code scanning with a mobile phone) is not available the Linux version of Firefox. Compared to Windows and macOS, the Linux version does not have a passkey option when logging in; it only has a "security key."(as shown in the image) I cannot use the pass key saved on my iPhone to log in to websites, which is very frustrating. Is this a bug or an incomplete feature? Thank you for your reply. device: archlinux

Untranslated (chinese) : 通行密钥功能(通过手机扫描二维码登录)在linux版的firefox上并不能使用,相比windows和macos,linux版在登录时并没有通行密钥选项,只有一个“安全密钥”(如图),我无法使用保存在iPhone上的通行密钥来登录网站,这很令人沮丧,这是一个bug还是没有完成的功能?感谢您的回复 设备:archlinux

Firefox 152.0.6 on Fedora 43 xfce vm crashes when one window loads

Hello all, I have FF 152.0.6 in use on Fedora 43 xfce Qubes OS VMs. The only issue I have encountered is when I try to load the web UI for Proxmox Datacenter Manager. As soon as I log in to the web UI Firefox vanishes. I have tried this in troubleshooting mode with the same results. I can open the same web UI in a Debian 13 Qube and it works perfectly. The FF version there is v.140.13.0esr. These are simply the default versions that come with Qubes 4.3 templates. I can also access the web UI in the original Fedora Qube with Chromium browser with no crash. I have also tried a different Fedora qube with the same failure result as the original.

I can use Chromium but would prefer a streamlined experience with just one browser. I thank all of you in advance any thoughts or suggestions. I am a long time Firefox and Mozilla user.

Have a great day. SS

My Firefox browser has just been updated .. not by me but somehow .. to 140.11.Oesr(64-bit) Its completely messed up all my settings .. why? Its taken me the best part of this morning to sort everything out . All my bookmarks were not displayed, the web pages that should have been displayed on startup weren't.. and to cap it all the "Done" button is hidden at the bottom of the page .. and why is it needed  ? all other setting just need to be changed to set them. Its so annoyed me that I've downloaded Chrome. and I'm using Opensuse Leap!

Similar names for Connected Services make "Send to Device" on Android unable to differentiate devices. The workaround is to "send to all devices". I can change my device names but I don't know how to change the Connected Service name. Here are some:

  • * * geoffrey’s Firefox on Geoffreys-q551ln-ASUS-Laptop
  • * * Gwheeler’s Firefox on GWHEELER-SM
  • * * Firefox on asus ASUS_AI2202
  • * * Geoffrey’s Firefox on Geoffreys-iMac
  • * * Firefox on samsung SM-G781V
  • * * gwheeler’s Firefox on GWHEELER-LT-SM
  • * * Firefox on SM-G960U1 Santa Maria, CA, United States

How can we improve this? Abbreviate Firefox to "Ff"? Use an in-line Firefox glyph? Also, I have a dualboot and run Lubuntu and Windows from the same device. I wonder how I can handle the device name to differentiate which OS I'm logged into.

I use Firefox for Linux on a Lenovo ideacentre desk top and on an Android mobile (Google Pixel). I live in the UK. I've saved my debit card details on both devices and autofill works perfectly on my phone but won't work on the PC. I've checked settings multiple times and everything seems to be properly set. I've just checked (via about:config) that my regions supports autofill and it does. When I try to use autofill, my card details appear in a box but when I click on the card number to fill the details, nothing happens! I've tried disabling the extensions I normally use on the desk top (Privacy Badger and ClearURLs) but that didn't resolve the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

This started since Firefox 153.0 (Debian package).

When I open Firefox for the first time after a reboot, it opens my latest tab but all the other tabs on that window are lost, and they show as "ghost tabs" as seen in attached image.

No other issue, other windows are preserved properly when I Ctrl + Shift + N

I have tried restoring my bookmarks using these steps but it doesn't work. Specifically, when I try to select "Choose File" in Step 3 nothing happens. The option will highlight, but when I click on it no window to choose a file pops up. Is there any other way to restore bookmarks using a json backup?

When I frequently turn off my computer using the system unit's power button, meaning a quick shutdown, after several such shutdowns, when I launch the browser, I'm prompted to log in again. Bookmarks that weren't synced disappear. And I'm also logged out of all the websites I was logged into, forcing me to log in again. Cachyos Linux.

The next firefox design is disgusting (personally). can we atleast get an option to keep the current boxy design? everything seems to be vibe coded.

I’ve been taking a look at the latest updates regarding the new Firefox design rolling out in Nightly, and while I appreciate the ongoing work and the return of features like Compact Mode, I wanted to share some thoughts from a user perspective, particularly regarding the aesthetic changes.

Personally, I’m not a big fan of heavily rounded edges across tabs and UI elements. For my workflow and visual preference, I much prefer a cleaner, sharper, and more traditional layout.

With these UI evolutions coming down the pipeline, it would be fantastic if Mozilla could provide a built-in option or setting to keep the current/classic style intact while still receiving all the important under-the-hood updates, security patches, and features. Giving users the flexibility to choose between the new design language and a more traditional layout would ensure everyone can tailor Firefox to their exact liking.

Would love to hear how others feel about the new look and whether a classic style toggle would be a welcome addition for you too!
