Ecrypted/Dig signature help needed across multiple Thunderbird installs

I think I need a walk-through with links to focus what I'm missing. Short version, I need TBird Android to backup/save private keys so I can take them and import them to TBird in my Kali Linux and Windows installs so everything uses the same keys.

Longer story: I'm finally digging in to Thunderbird (coming away from Outlook client) using GMail. I'm doing this because I am beginning to migrate away from Windows to Linux so I need something neutral and capable. As of today I'm not completely off Windows so I need to dual boot for a while. And as a bonus, TBird for Android was just released.

First, A month ago I got TBird running in both OS's. I wanted to set up digital signatures and encryption because I'm interested in security and.. why not. Under WIN TBird I started the key generation, but then it pushed me down a road to say I needed to purchase a service from a Cert Auth to use SMIME. Possible would be DigiCert for about $75/yr and I googled and found SSL.com is spoken well about for $14/yr or $20 for 2-yr. I haven't gone that far yet. First question.. do I NEED and S/MIME cert to encrypt and sign?

Now I've discovered TBird for Android was released. I got it going and in its e2e section it also allowed key generation and usage for encryption and signature. Now I'm second guessing the need for the cert. I did that there, published it to keys.openpgp.org, made it public And now I want to sync my new key-set between my 3 instances of TBird.

Next issue is that I cant seem to find where I can export/back up my private key from TBird Android. Next I will need to move it to my PC (securely.. not using one drive.. etc) so my 2 instances of TBird here can import it.

So like I opened up with, I think I (and maybe the community at large) needs a walk-through of the links to the steps to accomplish setting up encryption, and backing up/moving it over to other instances of ThunderBird.

(Wouldn't an account login for TBird be useful to sync settings the way Firefox does right about now?)

Thanks all. -Guy

How can I remove "Firefox suggests" URLs from the address/search bar on Android? I found the help article "Firefox Suggest for Mobile" (last updated 4/22/24) but when I follow its directions, I only see the first 3 toggleable options. "Suggestions from Firefox" and "Suggestions from sponsors" don't appear at all. The suggested URLs are frequently sites I have never been to and never want to go to, and their appearance is extremely irritating. Attached is a screenshot of the settings page as it appears to me, with only 3 options.

If you leave more than one tab in the background while using Firefox, it may irregularly automatically shut down. This happens even if you manually change the close after n hours in the settings, and I'm currently using Samsung Galaxy. For Galaxy Tab, I've tried to lock the app, allow the background, etc. to prevent this irregular shutdown, but to no avail. How do I solve these problems?

Updated to the latest version of Firefox Beta today on my Tablet and have noticed that now there is support for on-screen visible "Desktop-Like" tab strips.

I want to turn this feature off because it's consuming too much vertical space. How can I disable this? I've looked everywhere within settings and even within the debug menu and about:config, but I can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

Tab P11 Pro (2nd Gen) (8GB 256GB) and Firefox Android

Hi all, I recently got a Tab P11 Pro (2nd Gen) (8GB 256GB). I believe with the following specs: MediaTek Kompanio 1300T (8C, 4x A78 @2.6GHz + 4x A55 @2.0GHz) Inte… (자세히 살펴보기)

Hi all,


I recently got a Tab P11 Pro (2nd Gen) (8GB 256GB). I believe with the following specs:

  • MediaTek Kompanio 1300T (8C, 4x A78 @2.6GHz + 4x A55 @2.0GHz)
  • Integrated ARM Mali-G77 MC9 GPU

However, I'm getting 'hardware acceleration' errors with roll20, the roleplaying site, in Firefox.

If I try to launch a game in Firefox, roll20.net gives such error, and the site is not rendered at all.

I then tried Firefox Beta. Better, but I get an error that hardware acceleration is not enabled. The menu in the game is then rendered incorrectly.

On Chrome, the site is rendered, but the menu is way off to the right, similar to Firefox Beta.

Is there a setting in one of the flavours of Firefox on Android which I can turn on to activate hardware acceleration? I would have thought the tablet is powerful enough to use that. If anyone has any ideas what is going on, would appreciate it,

P.

When will Gecko-based Firefox Android increase the number of default search engines in 2025?

Currently it hosts only Big Tech namely Google and Microsoft Bing and DuckDuckGo, which is Bing and MSN results in DuckDuckGo and Qwant (same Bing results) latter which works only in the UK.

I'm using Gecko-based browsers like Fenix and Mull and Iceraven, and they all come with like 5 to 10 search engine options.

Adding new search engines is a mess and doesn't sync with Firefox account settings, so futile efforts.

Even Chrome allows us to select our search engine, if we are visiting it too much.

Is Firefox really privacy based browser or just Big Tech in Firefox like Google as default search engine out of the box, no asking which the XYZ user wants?

While browsing www.youtube.com, the site is not running smoothly. When I'm scrolling in the YouTube homepage, it's like cutting in the middle. On the other hand when watching YouTube shorts, when scrolling to a new video, it's like jumping and then loading, which seems extremely inconvenient. Overall the YouTube site is not working properly in Firefox mobile (Android 13). Note: I have tried the cookie delete option. Still persistent.
