I have check add-ons and extensions none are listed as installed. How is firefox being vectored off to this site? See screen shots.

I have bookmarks saved in 11 folders. Occasionally when I expand a folder to work with a bookmark and then close it, the whole folder will be saved at the bottom of a different open folder, not in its original location. I was struggling with trying to locate wandering folders untiI I learned to search a bookmark that I knew to be in the missing folder. Still, I would like to know if there is a setting that prevents folders from slipping out of sight. I have observed this happening for years.

Hey, AI is taking over the internet and mega software houses have started to adapt Chat GPT or many other products of OpenAi, but Mozilla is still not getting in this field.

Is there any chance of Mozilla to acquire any feature of Open Ai or Chat GPT. There are many sites who are now providing different information of Chat GPT, but Mozilla is invisible so far.

Why is it so?

Team,

I have an M2 macbook air. On average, Firefox on my Mac uses between 850megs and frequently well over a gig of my system's RAM. I have deleted all of my extensions (this helped a tiny bit), but the issue remains. It is noteworthy that Chrome, which has more windows opened and is used more frequently, only reports RAM usage of 125 megs up to 275 megs. Please help me.

Systems details M2 Macbook Air Ventura 13.3 (the issue remains between several software upgrades) Firefox 111.0.1 version (again, this memory issue remains after many software upgrades)

On many sites, various elements are in a strange font, that I think is "Impact." I have tried a couple things to fix this, but I have not got anything to work. I have noticed that this is only an issue for some elements on every site, and not every single element on every site. My best fix has been to use a "Font Changer" add-on that changes the font of the site back to something readable, but this tends not to work on many embedded webpages and things like that. I am very unsure of what is causing this, or where this font even came from. I have attached an image of a random eBay page where the issue is particularly prevalent, but this happens on most sites.

Thanks in advance for your help! - Benjamin

Dear Mozilla team, how can I delete the search bar on the bottom of the page? I want to put information on top of the site, but my query lands in the bottom and I have to put all back again in order to do the search. The search bar appears on the bottom left side of any website. It is very annoying and I don't need it. Even if I want to search for something, it does not give any further information. thanks for your help!

I am trying to access different audio tracks in a video on Firefox, but I am having issues. In order to have the media track button visible in the media player, I enabled media.track.enabled in about:config. However, clicking the button does not reveal a dropdown menu with the different audio tracks like it happens in Chrome. Attached follows a screenshot to illustrate the audio track button I am referencing (headphones icon). Is there another setting I can enable to allow the dropdown to show the tracks?

  • This doesn't happen with chrome.
  • If I enter a website directly in to the search bar, I am able to open the website; I just can't open it when going through google.
  • If I go through duckduckgo, I can open the website directly.
  • This doesn't happen for all websites, but the ones it happens to is weird. Today it was the Red Cross blood donation website.
  • I am over 18 and am noted as such in my google account and in my firefox account; I just double checked.
  • I am working on a PC using Windows 11 Pro. Firefox is up to date. I only have 2 extensions, neither of which block sites.
  • I tried going through google and accessing admin rights, can't do that so apparently I don't have admin rights through google. But again, I can open websites through google using chrome, just not firefox.
