Hello. I have a question about the browser settings in the company. The boss requires you to set up access to the sites through a proxy. We use Microsoft Edge for corporate websites, and Mozilla Firefox is used to work on other sites with electronic signatures. The setup is as follows. 1. The proxy is set manually. 2. The specified addresses are registered in the settings. 2.1. about:config/network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris 2.2. network.negotiate-auth.delegation-uris 2.3. network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris And now the question. Can such settings affect access to and work with other sites? I'm sorry for my English)

Здравствуйте. У меня возник вопрос по поводу настроек браузера в компании. Начальник требует настроить доступ к сайтам через прокси. Для корпоративных сайтов у нас используется Micrоsoft Edge, а для работы на других сайтах с электронными подписями используется Mozilla Firefox. Настройка проходит следующим образом. 1. Прокси устанавливается вручную. 2. Указанные адреса прописываются в настройках. 2.1. about:config/network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris 2.2. network.negotiate-auth.delegation-uris 2.3. network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris А теперь вопрос. Такие настройки могут повлиять на доступ к другим сайтам и работе с ними?

I don't want AI I don't even want to be near it. I don't want it lurking in the background of my browser. I don't want to waste a single processing cycle on even considering it. I never wanted AI, and they jammed it into my browser.

Currently, they popped up an ad for "AI Enhanced Tab grouping" and said that you can turn it off in the settings. I looked in the settings, and could not find such a thing. Searching for "Tabs" "Suggested" "AI" and other such related terms yields no AI things.

Why tell me I can turn something off in the settings if there is no setting to turn it off?

But that's just the start.

I want nothing to do with AI. I don't want to use a browser that supports it.

I WILL MAKE MY OWN DAMN BROWSER IF I HAVE TO. I QUIT GOOGLE, I'LL QUIT FIREFOX.

Mozilla used to be a safe-haven from all the bullshit other tech companies were pulling. And now this.

GET. AI. OUT. OF. MY. BROWSER.

I DON'T CARE IF IT'S LOCAL. I DON'T CARE IF YOU SAY IT'S SECURE. I DON'T CARE IF IT'S GETTING BETTER. I. DO. NOT. CARE.

GIVE ME THE OPTION TO PURGE AI FROM MY BROWSER OR BY FUCK I'LL FIND A NEW BROWSER.

For months now, I've been trying to use different websites from Netflix, Spotify, YouTube, and my Google account and Firefox blocks access to all of them. I always get the error message "The page isn’t redirecting properly. Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies." I've been forced to use Microsoft Edge for many basic websites and it's really frustrating. Please help.

Guten Tag lieber Support,

beim Erstellen eines Lesezeichens (Strg+D aus dem aktuellen Tag heraus) wird dieses nach ~3 Sekunden automatisch angelegt.

Das Verhalten dieser Funktion ist äußerst(!) ärgerlich. Es kann vorkommen, dass sich der Dialog direkt vor dem Anfassen mit der Maus bzw. dem Erkennen / sehen / user action im Bereich des Fensters einfach schließt.

Das Lesezeichen wird dann zwar erstellt, aber in diesem use case muss es nochmal angefasst werden.

Könnt ihr bitte eine Möglichkeit schaffen, dieses automatische Speichern & Schließen-Funktion zu unterbinden? Sollte es schon eine Möglichkeit dafür geben, bin ich offen für Erklärung.

Beste Grüße!

I visited the following site: Broker I can see their favicon in the tab. I bookmarked it to the Bookmark Toolbar, but the favicon is not the same (See image).

I did some search on this in google but nothing helped (refresh it, delete the favicon sql file, devtools chrome enabled, etc). I thought that firefox will honor the absolute path in the website. The following code is from the web site (I used the developer tools to inspect it).

<link id="dynamic-favicon" rel="shortcut icon" href="https://content.client.bnc.ca/content/dam/orion/favicon.ico">

If I edit that line to remove everything before the favicon.ico word, I get the incorrect icon.

This is not an issue in other browsers, but I only use Firefox at home.

How can I solve this? Hopefully without using an extension. Thanks

How can I unsync desktop from laptop bookmarks?

Selected update Mozilla to Windows 11 yesterday on desktop and am now seeing two sets of bookmarks on both devices. Laptop bookmarks were originally separate from desktop. Laptop is mine and desktop is my wifes. Did not know that it would auto sync both devices.

Is it possible to unsync/separate?

I don't know about you, but I loathe the recent push by the majority of tech companies to integrate the wasteful and environmentally harmful technology that is Generative AI into every corner of the digital landscape. I am especially disappointed in Firefox following the Gen AI hype and inserting it into our experiences as a default without considering the massive amount of users who are not interested in this tech for morons, those who want nothing to do with said tech, or people like myself who f***ing hate it. I am aware that you can shut off AI features by using Firefox's advanced configuration, so I'm wondering if such an option already exists for this coming rollout feature.

I for one believe Firefox should give its users the option to preemptively opt out of rollout features for things involving Gen AI which many, like me, are in vocal opposition against.

With FF 140.0 on both WIn10 and WIn11, new tabs opened automatically then closed after less than a second. Initially I thought this was due to malware, but on inspecting the History, I found the source of this annoying behavior:

// SidebarUtil.tab.js

// This is just a placeholder file to be loaded in a temporary tab to check if a sidebar is open and how wide it is.

Is there a way to STOP this sidebar checking with its tab opening/closing without disabling Java entirely ? Is this annoying behavior really necessary in FF ?

I just purchased 1Password because I need a password manager. I like Firefox and want to continue using it as my browser. My operating system is Windows 11 on a new Dell laptop.

But when I try to use the 1Password icon in the browser to save login information, I get only 3 choices: monitor, relay, and Firefox VPN. None works for 1Password.

I am very frustrated about this and hope my fellow Firefoxers can help me. I am disappointed Firefox offers no tech support.

Since Flathub list the org.mozilla.firefox app as official, i hope this is the correct support channel.

Recently i switched from distro specific package managers to flatpak as my application provider. The firefox flatpak won't play most embedded Video/Media on applications like in-browser fediverse clients, forums, blogs or wikis. Youtube works without any issues, Twitch is fine until there is an adbreak. Then it sometimes stops with the supported format/mime error (screenshot appended), only recoverable by cache-dismissive reload.

I used this Article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/audio-and-video-firefox and the links it contains to debug without any success. None of these samples play. just shows supported format/mime error https://test-videos.co.uk/bigbuckbunny/mp4-h265 At this test website 1. and 3. example won't play. I provided a screenshot before and after trying to click play on all the examples. https://www.tekeye.uk/html/html5-video-test-page

Contrary to the observed behavior about:support#media claims Software Decoding supported for everything except HEVC.

Chromium Flatpak has no such issues. So i copy the video url and play it with chromium. You can see: dire times.
