Hei!


I have used firefox.localhost to test my html page containing some JavaScript.

Now suddenly (it has worked nicely many times) it claims that there is not connection:

I also tried the "BlueFox" (developer version) and the response was exactly the same.

Firefox was just yesterday updated. OS is Windows 11.

Here the response text:

Hello,

I’m the developer of SnakeGame.Live , a browser-based multiplayer snake game with mouse steering on desktop.

I would like to understand the difference between Firefox’s F11 fullscreen mode and fullscreen activated through a website’s Fullscreen API.

For a mouse-controlled game, do these modes behave differently when the pointer reaches the top edge of the screen? Is there a recommended way to let players use fullscreen while keeping Firefox’s normal exit controls available?

I’m using Windows 10. I would appreciate guidance on the expected Firefox behavior and any relevant support documentation.

Thank you.

I've been using firefox for a little while- maybe three months now. I'm no expert on any of the config options. I run firefox using the built in VPN that my friend showed me how to enable, and I've been using it since. But now, as of roughly today, whenever I enable the VPN, no websites will load. At all. When I turn it off, they load instantly. But whenever I turn it on, it just gets stuck loading forever and ever, never actually getting anywhere. I tried enabling network.dns.disableIPv6 in the config page, because that's what I saw on a mozilla support page- nothing. Didn't do anything. The browser.ipprotection.enabled is still on, and I didn't change anything in settings. There was a firefox update very recently, but everything still worked with the VPN on. I just updated my computer, but I don't think that's it either because it wasn't loading things earlier today either. Not sure how to fix this. Please help?

The access to the email I used to sign up for my Mozilla account was revoked without warning earlier this year. I can't change the email address because it insists on sending an authentication code to the email address that no longer exists. There doesn't appear to be a way around this.

Request for a Discounted Mozilla VPN Plan Due to Financial Hardship

Dear Mozilla VPN Team, I hope you're doing well.

I'm writing to ask whether Mozilla could offer a discounted subscription or a customized plan to accommodate my financial circumstances.

I'm an English language teacher based in the Middle East, where severe internet restrictions and filtering make a reliable VPN essential to my work. Of all the services I've tried, Mozilla VPN is the only one that has consistently provided the reliable connection I need to teach my students without frequent disconnections.

My work involves interactive online classes, streaming educational materials, and sharing learning resources, so I estimate that I need approximately 150 GB of bandwidth per month.

Unfortunately, my monthly income is only around $100, and $3 per month is the absolute maximum I can currently afford for a VPN subscription without compromising my basic living expenses.

I genuinely value Mozilla's commitment to privacy and an open internet. I'm willing to upgrade to a regular subscription and pay the standard price as soon as my financial situation improves. For now, however, reliable VPN access is essential to my ability to teach, earn a living, and improve my circumstances.

I'd be extremely grateful if you could consider my situation and let me know whether any hardship discounts, educational pricing, financial assistance programs, or alternative subscription options might be available.

Thank you for your time and consideration, and for your continued work toward making the internet more accessible and private.

Warm regards, Amir

Weird Bug when editing Top Sites

I have a Mini PC connected to my TV. I use the Top Sites shortcut feature to remind me of which TV shows I'm streaming. Each time I complete an episode, I edit the Top Site and change the URL to the next episode, so that, when I come back and hit the shortcut -- it keeps my place in the series.

This all worked perfectly until the recent Windows desktop build of 157.0.1. Now, when I edit the shortcut and click save, it doesn't Save the edit. Instead -- it creates a duplicate shortcut in my bottom row.

It doesn't matter which Top Site I edit -- they all do it.

Can anyone duplicate this bug?

When uploading photos, Firefox is not Showing the last folder used. Normally, when uploading a photo from a certain folder, the next time you do that, the same folder shows up unless you choose a different one. Now, it keeps going to one specific folder even though I uploaded from a different folder previously.

Example: say I uploaded a photo from my folder "sympathy pics". Then I upload a photo from "my documents". The next upload pop-up box still pops up the "sympathy pics" folder when it should bring up "my documents".

Can someone please help me?

The new theme is terrible, but after choosing the grey option, it's usable. My problem is it resets for no reason. I don't use Firefox's home page, but that is the only place to change the theme of new Firefox. WHY? I have been a Firefox user since it was called Phoenix, and this recent change might finally break me.. Floorp is looking really good these days.

Don't know where it should be. But here is the issue: I check my personal email often, so I used to open Firefox, click the address bar, and my Outlook would be at the top. Now, for whatever reason, Firefox tries very hard to make that disappear, even though that is my most-used website. First, it'll drop a few places in drop-down, then some more, and then disappear. To bring it back, I'll have to delete unwanted links (the ones I open like once a month!) from history, and after quite a bit of work, Outlook will be back. Then rinse and repeat.....How can I fix this?

Hi there,

Since i have changed my primary email (the last primary became the secondary) i can't no more sign-in to "firefox relay" or "paid subscription" from my account. So I'm correctly logged in https://accounts.firefox.com/ but from there i can't connect to others services. I have this message :

Menu: Third-Party Login Failure An error occurred while attempting to login via your third-party account.

It a little bi annoying when you have paid subscription...

Thank you for your help.
