I tend to have long and extensive conversations on Firefox's Copilot AI but I've run into an issue that makes this more difficult. When I press CTRL + F to search for text through a chat, it only searches on the webpage I have open on the right. I was wondering if there is a feature that exists that does this that I'm not aware of, and if not, maybe that could become a thing later?

Context Menu Assistance - How to add "Open Link in New Tab" to Context Menu when Right Clicking on an Image in the Image Tab in Search Engines

Hello!

I am having an issue where when I right click an image when on the image tab of a search engine, it only has the "Open Image in New Tab" choice in the context menu, with no ability to open the website the image is on in said context menu. ("Open Link in New Tab")

I know this is the opposite of what most folks want, but I see it this way: If you open the image from the context menu right from the search page, it only opens the tiny, fuzzy image that you already could see on the search page. I don't want, nor need, the tiny, pixelated image that I am already looking at.

I want to be able to open it right to the page that the image is on. That way I can see the image in full resolution, or look at the page it is from.

Is there any add-on or code or anything that could help me? I've searched and searched, but nothing I've found has worked.

TL;DR I want to remove "Open Image in New Tab" and replace it with "Open Link in New Tab" from the context menu when clicking on images in the image tab of search engines on Firefox. Is there any add-on or code or anything that could help me?

I have been using Google Messages in Firefox for over a year, and have never had any problem until the most recent Firefox update from Linux Mint. Google Messages loads on the tab, and everything seems fine. But when I click on a conversation on the left, it crashes as it's loading the conversation.

All of my software is up to date, i.e., no new software updates are indicated in the system tray (?) on the panel. Firefox info: mint-001 - 1.0 147.0.2 (64-bit)

System info: Linux Technodrome 6.8.0-100-generic #100-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Jan 13 16:40:06 UTC 2026 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 Host: Technodrome Kernel: 6.8.0-100-generic arch: x86_64 bits: 64
   compiler: gcc v: 13.3.0 clocksource: tsc

   tools: mate-screensaver vt: 7 dm: LightDM v: 1.30.0

Hopefully this gets fixed soon, because checking my messages using my PC saves so much time.

Thank you

Usually there would be some shortcuts when I open new tab page. But they were gone on the new page from yesterday. Of course I didn't change setting and didn't install any add-ons. I disabled all add-ons. But problem not solved.

I checked 'preferences-home-Firefox home contents', but I cannot see any options(that area is just empty).

I also checked 'about:config' :

  • browser.newtabpage.enabled → true
  • browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.section.topstories → true
  • browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSearch → true

And I compared between 'about:newtab' and 'about:blank'. I found something that background color of new page are different. There are some HTML code in 'about:newtab' when I use F12. But I don't know what is wrong with this.

I have recently begun to have hard 'hangs' while attempting to view a video on a site I'm already connected to. I've tried to overcome these hangs, but they continue to happen even after firefox has been in use for a short time. I have to restart my computer, since the hang is locking up all control input.
