I see it as Thunderbird hijacking the resources of my computer to run Firefox and take me to the donation website. I'm fine with the request for money in the Thunderbird screen, I can navigate away from that. Don't open programs other than Thunderbird before I require them.

I have seen a custom css workaround solution to add category colors into calendar events. That solution still relies on calendar events having to be categorized in order to support color functionality.

How is it the year 2024 and Mozilla Thunderbird Calendar doesn't support event colors, independent of categories? This feature has been standard in most major calendar apps for literally decades now. All my Nextcloud calendar events are color coded (without categories), and won't sync to the Thunderbird app.

Can Thunderbird please add this functionality?

Since the recent updates, my Thunderbird has gone bonkers with confusing settings. I have lost all my previous settings and in particular cannot create any subfolders. I have had no problems in the past. I have tried a few solutions suggested by other subscribers without success. It would be greatly appreciated if the developers (who have done a marvellous job for so long) can rectify the problem ASAP. Otherwise, can I revert to an older version?

I have read and tried all the previous discussions on this and they are no help. I have Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed checked, and I have a list of exceptions. I also have Clear history when Firefox closes with Cookies and site data checked. When I close or Exit Firefox, and then restart it, all the cookies that were there before are still there. If I Delete All Cookies, then it deletes my exceptions too. If I'm doing something wrong, then you are making it way too hard to do.

I have two GMAIL accounts synched via IMAP to Thunderbird.

Thunderbird shows several folders for both accounts that I don't want or need to see namely ALL MAIL and IMPORTANT and STARRED that I want to disable from my Thunderbird view.

I have looked in Gmail settings and labels, and also in the Thunderbird Tools Account Settings and have not been able to suppress this despite following the help offered by various web page searches. What am I doing wrong or better still, what do I need to do to fix this please?

Thank you

Just wondering why Firefox on Android does not allow default desktop view of things such as Google Drive and to open Google docs in browser? I need the full Google Docs in the browser as the Docs app does not have all the things I need, such as equation editor. I have the Samsung Tab S10 Ultra so I know it is capable of doing this, I do it in Chrome on this tablet all the time, but would love to move over to Firefox, but can't because of this. Even the Samsung Internet app will allow this. Seems like Firefox really has not supported larger screen and more powerful Android devices properly.
