How do we convince Mozilla to add dark mode? It's a simple thing, and quite popular today.

I'm referring to Firefox on Desktop, but on Android, before the dark mode revolution, I would to root my phones to control the silly bright screens - it was a lot of work - but worth it. I still avoid apps that refuses to comply with popular and sensible dark mode.

The bright background fixation is due to people growing up writing on white paper... they don't get that it's silly - staring at a flashlight - or 1920x1080 flashlights. I started computers in command line days - dark was default. Then came blinding Windows - many years of blinding nonsense. Finally, in the last 10 years, while most tech has enabled dark mode, MOZILLA is a huge disappointing exception. Why?

The only way I've found to fix Firefox decreases security! about:config, extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains ... not recommended!

What happened to the box (on the left/center of the screen )that had all the icons of plugins you can drag and drop to your toolbar (like the printer icon)? Can someone tell me how to get it back? There used to be a way to get to it by tapping on the 3 bars in the upper right of the screen and going down the options.

One more thing. Some times, when I am typing, a "toolbar" shows up at the bottom of the screen. Why is that?

I have recently got a new work laptop and have imported my bookmarks and passwords. However, I am unable to get the bookmarks toolbar to show up? The usual way of enabling it to always show or only show on new tabs doesn't work and I have a message on the toolbar that says "For quick access, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar. Manage Bookmarks..." But nothing works. Please can you assist as it is driving me nuts.

Why are these showing up now? They were never there before. Is there a way to hide them or make them disappear? They are ugly, distracting to look at and unnecessary. I tried one about:config solution, but it did not work. Please fix this. See screenshot. The black tacks should not be visible, but now they are.

Hello there! I recently updated Firefox to 137.0.1. But the update doesn't automatically display the status bar when you hover over the bottom of the page. I had to resize Firefox to make it full screen to display the status bar properly. This makes it difficult for me to use Firefox. I'm pretty sure this is due to a version update. This problem occurred after I updated the Firefox browser, during which time my Windows system was not updated. Is there any solution? Or how can I download a previous version of the browser?

Hello, I am now seeing a problem displaying an Iframe with Firefox Browser 137.0.1 (64-bit). It appears but in a reduced form (about ten lines of a spreadsheet) without occupying the entire size of the Iframe. This problem did not exist previously in previous versions of Firefox. Please let me know if there is a solution. Other browsers display this Iframe correctly.

A folder on the bookmarks menu that stroes individual bookmarks, fills half the screen of a standard 1080p screen with totally empty white space.

The padding in between each and every single bookmark, in any place that can store bookmarks, will be filled by at least 3 or 4 mm of empty white space. Between every single bookmark.

This is a huge amount of completely pointless scrolling.

Do you have an RSI? No?

Good for you. I, sadly do.

Has there been a fix for this cos the chrome folder .css "fix" is not working for me.

If i cant solve this i am going to change browsers. I dont care. I love Firefox and used it since the netscape days in the 90's, but am not going in for another surgery since you people insist of giving people more RSI's.
