Firefox Community Forum

Hello,

In Firefox (up to date), the “module” (right-click) that allows for direct translation is great, and I want to thank you for it.

However, do you plan to keep the “Windows 98-style” stamp-like format of the dialog box that opens for much longer? In 2026, on 27-inch screens, it’s honestly very annoying—even if you can zoom in just a tiny bit, it’s a pointless step and not ergonomic at all! It’s the little details like this that make us look elsewhere!

Thank you in advance for your understanding!

Greetings...

I successfully deleted the new weather widget that appears at the top right of my Firefox homepage but the horizontal space at the top of my homepage remains. I followed all of the steps (3) to delete the weather widget but none of them also deleted the horizontal space. As a result, there is a wide white top "margin" that appears on my homepage, below which the customary Firefox graphic logo appears.

On my Firefox homepage, I have three rows of shortcuts that now appear lower on the homepage and a vertical scroll bar now appears on the right side of the homepage. Before the new weather widget appeared on my homepage, the three rows of shortcuts were vertically centered on the homepage, without the need for a vertical scroll bar to appear.

Either there is a way that the horizontal space at the top of my homepage can be deleted, or I will have to resort to creating a custom HTML webpage containing my shortcuts.

Please advise which solution will resolve this problem. Thank you very much for your time and feedback.

Take care...

I cannot see my left side vertical list of my bookmarks (including 'other bookmarks'. Can you tell me how to access this list every time I open Firefox on my desktop and other sites?

Is there the ability to highlight the open tab on the tab bar above the browser in a different colour this would help as well identify which tab we are working on for example if I am on Firefox, the tab above is highlighted in for example yellow so I’m aware that this is the open tap thank you

Whether or not I activate the "weather" display (top right of home screen), the blank space above the FF logo remains.

I have 4 shortcut rows displayed and have to scroll down so that I see the bottom row - this is a pain. If I could eliminate the blank "weather space" above the FF logo, my home screen would display all 4 rows properly i.e., no need to scroll up and down.

Thanks!

I found on a browser search that setting icon means there are customizable features available. I updated to latest version of Firefox but have no idea what other features are available to customize. Too many setting options to go through every one. How do I find out what I need to do to get the settings icon to go away.

How can someone give feedback to Mozilla, not to the "help forum" per se? I want to let Mozilla know I do not like the Firefox logo with its surrounding invisible banner that takes up two-thirds of my home page and pushes my medallions or icons thingies of saved links so far down that they are most invisible. This makes no sense and is unpopular, I have been able to take it off the Home Page, but no linger can go into the config to change it appearing. The web is abuzz with unhappy users over this new update. I want to tell Mozilla, but all I can get is the Forum, which I assume is full of other Firefox users like me, and not "Deciders". Suggestions?

I'm suppose to see a sparkle button, and I recall having seen it on my desktop, but it's disappeared. I do have accounts with both Anthropic and ChatGAPT, I'd like to access them from the side bar, not a tab. How do I get that sparkle button back?

Since the last Firefox update circa 5/18/2026 there is an orange cast on the home screen. toggling the hardware acceleration on or off makes no difference. Cannot find night light on/off in settings.

I love Firefox so much, Ive been using it for about a year now Ive came from using Opera GX but honestly Firefox is just my go to browser. I miss the old logo and think it looks better please go back.

I use Firefox as it is one of the last good browsers that isn't chromium based. However, I use it for work and like a nice clean PROFESSIONAL look.

With the introduction of version 149, I see new cartoonish fox icons pop up all over the place. After a little research it appears to be Kit, the firefox mascot.

Let me be clear, I don't hate the mascot, he's cute. But that is not what I want in a browser. I find his appearance and lack of ability to eliminate him infuriating.

I try to run a firefox in a as minimalistic state as possible. Intruducutions of this character, make the browser feel cartoony and childish. Things I despise in an application. I know many people like him, but I would like the option to not have him appear in the application at all.

I was able to successfully remove him from the certificate warning page setting the flag: security.certerrors.felt-privacy-v1 --> FALSE.

However, I can't find other places to remove this nuisance. Take a look at the attached screenshot. Things like this are not welcome without a way to disable it.

Do you have any documentation or instructions I can use to disable this childish nonsense and restore an adult browser again?

In Windows 11, how do I add the Firefox icon to the extreme top left of its webpages?

When I switch tabs to Firefox, typically using Alt+Tab, I am often unsure at first which program I am in. I have searched Firefox settings, and googled extensively, and there seems to be no way to add the icon back. I believe that it was once there, but I am unsure of this.

Almost every other program places its icon on the top left of its pages. Surely it is possible to do the same in Firefox, which just has an empty space there.

(But I am wrong on the last point, because Edge, which I rarely use, also has no icon there. Surely Firefox does not want to share any problem that Edge has!)
