The add-on, Enhancer for YouTube, appears to be the cause of a very annoying bit of behavior. My YouTube tabs seem to be all numbered. I hate this. Why make a bookmark, I have to manually remove this number before I can auto sort my bookmarks directory alphabetically.

Worse, there is no part of the description that identifies this bad behavior as being involved with Enhancer for YouTube. I had to go to AI for help figuring out how to get rid of this exceedingly annoying behavior that showed up whenever I used tabs with YouTube videos. I can't imagine anything that this add-on could be adding to my experience that is more convenient than this particular behavior is annoying.

Changes to the appearance of tabs should not be performed invisibly and without settings that I can disable. Because of this, I can only get rid of his horrible behavior by disabling the entire add in. Mozilla put a stamp of approval on this particular add-in. So the dirt is on your face, too.

I use LastPass and I cannot open any login information from the vault. I click on "Launch" (picture uploaded) and nothing happens. If I have a site open I can auto-fill the Username/Password. Some of the sites are tailored to a specific page - I rely on this. It works in Edge and Chrome. It did work before today in Firefox (can't say when specifically). Firefox password management disabled.

This might be quite "old man yells at cloud" of me, but oh my god I am so fed up of everything putting AI in as a "feature" for no reason.

1) No one asked for this. 2) It is bad at doing whatever it is designed to do. (It's not helpful, it's not even neutrally unhelpful, it's ANTI-HELPFUL.) 3) It is always on by default, or worse, impossible to turn off.

At the very least AI features need to be off by default, because it's rubbish.

Firefox is meant to be a bastion of sanity and safety in a world of exploitative techbros trying to steal our data and trick us into making money for them. So-called "AI" goes against this. Please, Firefox, be better.

As of 20th Nov 2025, here's how to turn off AI features. Go into about:config and set all of these to false (yes, you’ll have to copy and paste them one by one):

  • browser.ml.enable
  • browser.ml.chat.enabled
  • browser.ml.chat.menu
  • browser.ml.chat.page
  • browser.ml.chat.page.footerBadge
  • browser.ml.chat.page.menuBadge
  • browser.ml.linkPreview.enabled
  • browser.ml.pageAssist.enabled
  • browser.tabs.groups.smart.enabled
  • browser.tabs.groups.smart.userEnabled
  • extensions.ml.enabled
  • browser.search.visualSearch.featureGate

in addition to nuking AI, it’ll also speed up your browsing

Steps to Reproduce:

Open the provided SVG code in Firefox.

Observe the animation, particularly the elements with animate and animateTransform attributes.

Notice the stuttering or lag compared to the smooth rendering in Chrome.

I beg of you, please do not go forward with the AI focused policies. AI as it currently stands is a rapidly sinking ship that a LOT of consumers hate, and that group is coincidentally the group that most frequently uses Firefox. By pushing forward AI-first policies, you are alienating your userbase, destroying the privacy and usability that makes Firefox special, and you're upsetting millions of people that love this service. Please, for the love of god, DON'T GO FORWARD WITH AI. Stick to what makes Firefox special, and it will flourish as every other browser becomes more and more unusable.

Hi!

I've had issues with Firefox now for quite a while and they only seem to be getting worse. Performance is really bad, it's lagging while browsing, especially infuriating when typing as the letters come out at a stuttering pace. I've tried disabling extensions one by one, I've tried troubleshoot mode and experienced no major difference.

If I can't solve this soon enough I won't be able to keep using Firefox, as the experience is so frustrating. And it would be a shame since I've come to like it quite much.

Thanks!
