Hi there,

I recently received notice of being a part of the one billionth data breach and I am officially sick of it. I love and use firefox and beta, but I know my privacy is not that protected. I was looking through reviews and found Waterfox which is supposed to be built on the firefox platform, but has better privacy protections. I downloaded it and all seemed right. I imported from Firefox. Then I tried to download it to my iphone and the only thing that came up was "Water Fox". I downloaded it and couldn't even get through opening it without crazy ads and it looking like some game app. It wanted my saved data from firefox to import. But, no way. Either this was pretending to be WaterFox and a scam, or WaterFox IS a scam. So, I'm hoping maybe someone here would know and would also know if I just made a huge mistake by installing this. If it were just an app pretending to be WaterFox, why wasn't there an actual waterfox app? That was the only one even close. And, the reviews said that WaterFox was students working with Firefox or something like that, but couldn't find anything about them in Firefox forums. Any info would be greatly appreciated. And, if I did just make a huge mistake, is there a way to fix it? I didn't sign in with the squirrely iphone app, but I did with the desktop. Eeeep.

Web browser issue

Since the last update for Firefox browser (Version 138.0.3 64-bit), I have been unable to access my default search engine which is startpage (https://www.startpage.com/). This is very annoying. I checked my extensions, and the extension is not disabled. I also haven't inadvertently blocked startpage. So this appears to either be a coincidence and issue with the startpage going down, or Mozilla Firefox have blocked the site. Looking for advice to resolve the access issue.

Where is the Firefox apt repository for Debian .deb packaged releases? The article's link is broken.

In the article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux#w_install-firefox-deb-package-for-debian-based-distributions-recommended

https://packages.mozilla.org/apt leads to 404, not a Debian software repository / archive.

Step 4 (is broken)

Next, add the Mozilla APT repository to your sources list:

echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc] https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.list > /dev/null

Since the last update, my bookmarks sidebar does not open automatically when I open Firefox. A minor annoyance, perhaps, but an annoyance nonetheless, especially since it used to work until Firefox monkeyed around with it unnecessarily.

Every help I've found gives the same answer: Make sure the Bookmarks Toolbar is checked "Always Show." Well, it is checked, it was never unchecked, except that I tried unchecking and rechecking it in the vain hope that it would jumpstart something.

Is there any way to fix this? Or is it cursed forever?

So I am running 31 add-ons. 30 of them ARE ACTIVE. (I've ALREADY ACTIVATED THEM.) Only 8 are showing up on the tool bar. I would like to select ONE that is not showing up for use. I have double, triple and quadruple checked, it is active...but it does not show up on that toolbar. I WOULD say that it is because there is not enough room, but there IS enough room for at least 3 others to be showing up. I can remember a day when there was 12 of them showing, and I had an arrow to select to see the "hidden" add-ons. That is not present. I cannot find a way to "show all"... unless it is just going to the install center to see that they are BOTH installed AND active. (Well, one is not active, but that is for a reason, and it's not the one that I want to use at this time.) While typing this, I tried something, I right clicked on the toolbar and selected customize, and I SEE the old familiar >> but it is grayed out. Once I click on "done" it disappears again. It is that ">>" that is missing. Yes, it's called "The overflow menu"... THAT is what is missing! How do I get that back?

Hello. Today I updated Firefox to Version 138.0.3 64 bit and I have found that the Search Bookmarks in Bookmarks no longer works where as in Version 138.0.1 it did. I have done a Refresh and it still does not work. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem. Is this a bug or something new with the current update. Could someone tell me how to solve this a using the Search Bookmarks function was a big help. Thank you.

Respectfully, Don
