Names of screen parts are not clearly known to everyone. The ribbon along the top with back button, and web address, lacks the symbol to access the pull down menu for bookmarks. A very convenient feature that seems to be lost. Spent a long time trying to find it last year on a different machine. Convoluted process. Now not finding it.

I'm stuck in an endless loop in Firefox for Linux (MX Linux) whenever Cloudflare is used as security.

"Performing security verification

This website uses a security service to protect against malicious bots. This page is displayed while the website verifies you are not a bot."

I click "verify you are human" and it just loops back to the very same challenge. It isn't broken in other web browsers like Vivaldi for Linux. Or Firefox in Windows 11. Just Firefox for Linux.

It has been this way for months.

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?

I run Firefox on Fedora Linux (Silverblue). For several releases I've noticed that the reader mode only displays the Close Reader View, Text and Layout, and Theme options and nothing else i.e. no content.

When I run it in troubleshooting mode, it works. I've tried disabling all my extensions, deleting all my extensions,restoring the browser to default settings but nothing makes a difference. I'm always on the latest release (currently 147.0.3). I currently have multiple profiles, but it didn't work even before I rebuilt them. I'm out of ideas.

Any help is appreciated

I like having the shortcuts to regular sites on the home page, but its usefulness is spoiled by every site I momentarily visit also appearing and replacing my pinned sites. This renders it basically useless. Can we please have a way of removing 'visited sites' from the shortcuts.

Using Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS with Firefox 147.0.3 (64-bit)

Firefox crashes when trying to access any banking website. Can get to the login page, but then firefox crashes and a crash report window comes up with quit or restart option. This has been going on since shortly after upgrading from 22.04 Ubuntu. Started with Firefox 147.0.1 and after upgrading to 147.0.3 did not fix the issue.

Started Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode and that works when going to the bank login page. Using Standard Theme and only extensions Windscribe - Free Proxy and Ad Blocker and DuckDuckGo. Disabled both and same result of crashing om bank log in pages.

I run Windscribe VPN through my separate subscription, but it doesn't matter if it is on or not. Banking websites (Keybank, Kinecta, Capital Group) still crash Firefox

Also crashes when trying to access Excellus BCBS log in page. Most other websites (news, sports, Amazon) are fine.

Searches on your support page yields ) results.

Please advise!!!

I get why the domain is highlighted, and it's good! But the rest of the URL can be hard to read, especially with dark themes (see screenshot, taken of this page's URL bar, using the default Dark theme). I have tried to find a dark theme with better contrast, but haven't had any success.

Is there a setting that I can change to set the font colors or contrast between them?
