Today I got on my laptop and opened Firefox like I do every day. The browser looked different. It was an ugly purple color. A window showed me information about 'Profiles'. I didn't want any 'Profiles', I just wanted my regular Firefox Browser. So I deleted the Profiles. This also ended up deleting all of my bookmarks and passwords!! It took the last two hours and working with AI to recover my most recent backup which was two years old. Firefox hasn't been backing up any of my data that I actually need, and it actively deleted the things I rely on. Your devs and designers really messed up on this one. I bet no one uses Profiles, but everyone uses passwords and bookmarks to some degree. Why would you build it like that?! Shame, Mozilla. This was a serious error on your part. Bad product design. Make it easier to back up the things we need. Get rid of this useless 'Profiles' function that I bet no one uses.

Right now when I right-click to translate a word or a full page, it automatically picks one of my country’s regional languages as the default. I only want translations to go to English, but I can’t find any setting in Firefox to change that. How do I make English the default (and only) translation language?

I had to sign up for the Mozilla VPN before I could open my Yahoo account. I don't know what this is and don't want to pay for it. If it's part of my Firefox account, that's fine, but I don't want anything that will cost me.

While I can make the website text bigger, I can't make the menu items bigger. I have to lean in, shut one eye, and then I can squint to see the text on my big screen. On the Mac screen, it is too small to read. Enlarging the text on the Mac screen doesn't enlarge the menu items.

Mozilla can help by figuring out a way to allow the menu items to be enlarged, perhaps when the screen itself is enlarged?
