Dear Firefox, I am a new user, so I must apologize in advance for how naive I may be. I had attempted to search for my answer online, but did not find it.

I was previously on Chrome, and enjoy the tab interface there. As I move to Firefox, I notice that instead of having all my tabs listed at once, after some point I instead am met with "Scroll forwards" and "Scroll backwards" options.

I understand that this may look cleaner and less cluttered to some, but I personally dislike this, as I took comfort in the organized chaos of my many tabs - I was able to navigate through with ease, a single click to open the tab I desired rather than scrolling through my many tabs, which I feel may become incredibly annoying and inconvenient for me.

Is there any way to fix this?

When reading the New York Times, on any page but the first, links do not work.

This problem does not occur in Troubleshooting mode, which I understand means some setting or extension is causing the problem.

How do I find out which setting or extension to change?

I've reported literally EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE ABOUT HER in an attempt to maybe hint to the grand ol algorithm that I have NO interest in her life, marriage, or whatever else keeps getting beamed into my eye sockets. Nothing has worked. No dismissing, no reporting, NOTHING keeps me from seeing another article about her. I DON'T CARE WHAT SHE'S DOING STOP SHOWING ME ARTICLES!!! PLEASE!!

I have been using Firefox for years. I am not tech savvy. A very tech savvy member of the family recommended firefox years ago (and now says we should use Brave or another).

Does anyone run Firefox? Why is there no contact centre/people? Why do other members have to answer questions? The reason I am losing total faith in Firefox is that it must made me update and restart and every open window I had (and the tabs on each window) have been lost. I cannot retrieve them, which I have always been able to do via "Restore previous sessions". There was so much important information on those windows and tabs from way back - too far to shift through the history. Can anyone give me one good reason to stay with Firefox? Thankfully, there are many browsers to now use. Firefox has perhaps just become a habit and one I should have changed a long time ago. Thank you.

Can't pin an extension to the toolbar

I have Bitdefender SecurePass Installed, enabled and populated but I can't put an icon for it on my toolbar or, apparently, actually activate it in any other way. Bitdefender suggests there is a bug in Firefox causing this. They suggested that setting Firefox to save history should fix it but it didn't. They also suggested that working in incognito mode might be the problem. I have tried turning off incognito mode and this still has not solved my problem.

When I originally set up SecurePass, it worked fine - the logo icon appeared on the toolbar and it activated when required. I then had a problem with getting multiple popups that purported to be warnings from Firefox about viruses and trojans. I eventually had to completely uninstall and then reinstall Firefox in order to get rid of the popups and now I have this problem with being unable to actually use Bitdefender SecurePass.

I'm unable to see some pictures in Mastodon and I don't know why.

At first I assumed it was a filter blocking "sensitive images," but I turned that off.

Then I turned off the "Show colorful gradients for hidden media" setting, and I just get black images instead.

If I have a pinned tab, but I close out of the browser completely, that pinned tab should NOT open there when I relaunch the browser. NO tabs should be opened when I relaunch the browser after it has been completely closed.

PLEASE provide a way to disable this annoying "feature" (i.e., bug).

Thank you
