I will stop using Firefox.

It is the end for me with Firefox, reason Sync and Bookmarks.

No matter what I do, every time I delete a bookmark, it instantly pops up back, duplicate bookmarks everywhere, delete them and they magically pop up again.

I researched the internet for months with no solution, I tried every solution that showed up in search results, nothing resolved the issue.

I even disabled sync, and yet the deleted bookmarks pop up again, I deleted ALL my bookmarks and like magic they are back.

So, after so many years I decided to find another browser that will not give me that much headache...

Hello.

This most recent update of the Firefox app for Android has suddenly made it so that all of my bookmarks and bookmark folders are out of order. The desktop version does not have this same problem, and syncing between the desktop and mobile accounts does not seem to fix anything.

Another issue I noticed with regards to bookmarks on mobile is that where once I could pull down while in the bookmarks tab to 'refresh' the sync, this feature suddenly does not work either.

I have done 4 total clean re-installs of the app and signed back into my account each time. The app then works as normal, with no bookmarks/sync/refresh issues. Within the next day, however, the app restarts itself and the bookmarks are scrambled again with no sync refresh operating.

I have tooled around the support forums and seen that at least since Ver. 133 other people have had this same issue. The support forums are really not user intuitive and I do not know where to go to have an actual conversation with the developers instead of hoping someone responds to a thread if they feel like it.

I really enjoy using Firefox as my default browser, and have never had this issue before on mobile after any app update until now. If the developers could please take the time to look into this request and work out a solution that doesn't include re-installing the mobile app every other day, I and many others would be very appreciative.

I have firefox on a Windows 10 laptop plus two android phones and two android tablets. The Bookmarks on the laptop, both tablets and one phone are shown in alphabetic order. The Bookmarks on one phone are in random order. How can I make these Bookmarks list in alphabetic order? I have read that I cannot simply reorder the bookmarks, so I probably need to delete the bookmarks, ON THIS PHONE ONLY and definitely not on my other devices. Then would "Sync” import the Bookmarks from "the cloud"? Or would "Sync" export the now-empty "Bookmarks" folder from this phone to the cloud?

Hi 👋. I just had the oddest thing happens in that I recieved a message from the firefox browser that I was unable to save a bookmark. ...I assume some limit was reached? I've been save most sites bookmarks regularly and have around 10,000. Yeah I know .. and it's mostly deduplicated. Never thought never would be a limit? This is on my android s24u. I have not reached the limit on pc yet. The second question is, does windows 10 latest firefox have a bookmark limit? And if so, is it limited per user account of firefox ? I wouldn't imagine but if anyone can enlighten me with details please.

  And leads to my 3rd question. How EXACTLY does the syncing work? Like which device is king? Or how does your cloud sync decidewhich device gets what? And when ? My thoughts are your cloud sync is like a centrel gathering point for the information then based one which device synced whatever, the cloud sends the difference so to speack in my senerio, 3 devices.  , I need as much detail as possible because I feel like I'm not synced between accounts half the time . I use 3 devices desktop laptop and s24u. Same account for allb3 and all 3 are different and sometimes I change some setting or remove something like an extention and step away from phone a few hours and extention is back things changed on the browser are not changed anymore ..? Wth so this is why the need for details on the sync setup.  So frustrating. Sorting and removing passwords has been a nightmare lol get right of a bunch and need a password so go looking and bam! Those deleted passwords are back wth lol . Kinda funny but maddening in the moment.  Thanks in advance ☺️  and sorry for the terrible job I did trying to write this out quickly lol. 👋

'bold text My updated version of firefox does not have my bookmarks, will not print all pages, will not allow to select print in color, will not display images in downloads only text.

I am tired of clicking and scrolling and clicking and scrolling to find something I use constantly. It's fine to bury "settings" in a menu because I only use it once or twice. But things that we constantly use daily should be prominently displayed front and center. When I make a user interface I always make the daily use items as easy as possible. Rare use items can be hidden away in a submenu because it will only rarely irritate users, and in fact, if it can be destructive, it should be buried deep in the menu tree so you don't click it by accident.

Hi I use several different Linux distros in all my machines. I am trying to merge my bookmarks for each OS in a computer into a file which I then will restore to all OSes.

I am hoping to edit that file myself, as I may at a later stage try to merge all bookmarks from all OSes in all machines.

So I am thinking of looking into key3.db files and see if I can come up with something, but I can't find the file in Artix. I have not tried other OSes yet.

I am running Firefox Browser 136.0; Mozilla Firefox for Artix Linux; artixlinux - 1.0

I am trying to display my list of bookmarks which was in the previous version of Firefox. The Other Bookmarks option contains none of the bookmarks that I regularly want to use

Bonjour ! Je n'ai plus la possibilité de marquer des pages et je ne retrouve plus mes anciens marques pages. Ceci arrive depuis que j'ai installé l'anti track d'Avast mais je ne sais pas si ça a un rapport ! J'utilise Windows 11 sur PC Merci pour votre aide.

I opened the Bookmark Manager because I wanted to change some tags. After I made the changes, and deleted the websites from the old tags, I wasn't able to delete them. In r/mozilla it was suggested that I Verify Integrity. Is there something I'm supposed to do after I run that? I was still unable to delete tags. Just in case it might be helpful, this is the report from Verify Integrity:
