The Shortcut Icons are now all differant to that of the Websites. This makes identifing the well known website Icons time consuming and fraustrtingly unnecessary. In the drop down Edit of the icons they are already set to the websites - but do not display them.

Is this the new Ai doing stupid stuff?

Can it be reversed by customers using FF or is it just another "wait and see if it ever gets better" thing!

Hi all, I've looked high and low for this, but can't find it... I have a couple of laptops and a desktop - one of the laptops has started showing a sidebar with buttons. I really like the utility of it and want to do same on second laptop and desktop, but all the settings I've tried just give me the old style of bookmarks. The version I want has a side pane with curved corners, and several buttons remain along left, almost like a left hand side menu bar. But where's the on/off button to add it to my other machines? All using latest version, and all logged in as me - I don't understand why, if its an update, it hasn't done so to all computers?

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.

According to Mozilla and all other online instructions for changing Firefox wallpaper, one must click on the Settings icon (pinwheel) in the upper right corner of a new tab. There is no such icon anywhere on the new tab screen. There is no wallpaper to select under the Settings menu (three dashes) in the top right hand corner. I have the latest version of Firefox. What version are these instructions for? And how does one change the Firefox wallpaper? Firefox is my default browser in Ubuntu 2204 LTS.

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!

Taskbar hover reveals small graphic - Firefox 133 and Thunderbird 128

I'm not sure when it started (this week maybe?), but I've been noticing a small graphic appear to the right beside the Firefox icon when I hover over it. The same graphic also appears when hovering over Thunderbird's icon. Does not appear when hovering over any other icon on my task bar. It appears whether I am connected to the internet or not. I ran Malwarebytes latest build antivirus, which found nothing. Any ideas what this graphic is and/or what is it for?

I've made a screenshot, which I'll attach.

Running Firefox 133.0.3 64-bit, on Windows 11 Home (Build 22631.4602) , using DuckDuckGo as the search engine. The version of Thunderbird I'm running is: 128.5.2esr 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900K 3.20 GHz

Using Firefox 135.0.1 with Mac OS 15.3.1. Sometimes the menus on the left side of the top menu bar (, Firefox, File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Window, Help) vanish from the menu bar at the top of the screen. The items on the right side of the menu bar are unaffected and remain visible. If I click in the menu bar area, the items that had disappeared return.

This does not occur with Safari or Chrome, only with Firefox and only infrequently.

Curious to know if it's a bug or something else.

Description: Intermittent black or white blocks partially covering parts of the image, this problem disappears when you open the same webpage in troubleshoot mode. Steps to Reproduce: This problem I have is when i open an image inside a website I am subscribed too. It first occured about three weeks ago, I tried all the available cleaning tools cache etc to try to resolve this issue. As none of that worked and I had the computer quite a while, I decided to do a complete new Windows installation but the problem was still there. This problem occurs in The British Newspaper Archive website, Newspapers At Ancestry website and Ancestry.co.uk, this problem does not occur using any other browers. I can open the same webpage in both Windows Edge and Duck Duck Go browsers and the issue is not there. So, that suggests to me that the issue is in the Firefox Browser itself. I have tried opening the webpage in the Firefox troubleshoot mode, and the issue then disappears, but then as I re-open Firefox normally, the issue returns. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me to resolve this issue. Thanks.

I am a report commissioner and a human rights volunteer, so I need to visit the reporting articles in different countries, and fonts are also a key way to view them, because sometimes I encounter fonts that can't be displayed, so I can only modify specific fonts in the browser to display characters and text symbols, but I need a specific type of text every time, which makes me feel very inconvenient! So I hope that in later versions, this function can be optimized, thank you for your understanding.
