What is the difference between pinch zoom and Ctrl + plus/minus page zoom, and how can I use both with a keyboard and mouse?

I am confused about the difference between the two ways of zooming: 1. Pinch-to-zoom with two fingers on the laptop touchpad. 2. Page zoom with the keyboard: Ctrl + plus, Ctrl + minus, and Ctrl + 0.

On the laptop, pinch-to-zoom is very convenient. But when I connect an external monitor, a keyboard and a mouse, and then close the laptop lid, the touchpad is no longer available. If a page is still zoomed in from a pinch gesture, I cannot zoom back out to the normal size using only the keyboard and mouse.

Environment: Firefox 159.0; Arch Linux with Linux Zen 7.2.11; GNOME 51 on Wayland

Thank you. (English wording assisted by a translation tool.)

Hello sir,

               I regularly use the full-screen mode in your browser. However, I have noticed that full-screen mode gets automatically disabled every time I restart the browser.

This is becoming extremely inconvenient and frustrating because I have to manually enable full-screen mode every single time I open the browser. Repeating this process again and again is a real hassle.

I would like to request that you either fix this issue or introduce a new setting that allows users to keep full-screen mode permanently enabled, even after restarting the browser. Please consider adding an "Always Keep Full-Screen Mode Enabled" option so that users do not have to activate it manually every time they launch the browser.

I hope you will consider this feedback and provide a permanent solution to this issue.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Firefox 157: Nova interface, how do I revert back to the previous gui?

Regarding FF v157:

- Mozilla have changed the Graphical user interface of Firefox without asking for consent or providing a clear way to revert back to the old interface, yet again. - They have made changes to the settings, so pre-installed search engines can only be toggled off and NOT removed... - There are a bunch of themes now pre-installed that can't be removed.

I think pushing a change without over way to revert, is why I a lot of people don't donate to the Mozilla foundation

Hi folks, I just moved to Windows 10 Pro (from my faithful old Windows 7 Pro) and I installed Firefox 159.0.1 I imported all the bookmarks from my old Firefox 115.44 and I see the bookmark drop-down list is now double spaced, forcing me to scroll to get to most of the bookmarks in my list (in ver. 115 they were single spaced and all my more-commonly used bookmarks were accessible without scrolling). Since I depend on bookmarks a lot, this makes things difficult. I've searched the 'web for ways to fix this but nothing available there seem to work. Please tell me how to change the Firefox 159 bookmark drop-down list back to single spaced. Thanks for any help you can give me with this. And thanks for an otherwise great, reliable browser! Sincerely, Frank Fitz...

Firefox Color themes and vertical tabs—it’s enough to drive you crazy. For starters, most existing themes don’t support vertical tabs, so the tab bar just looks awful. And even after I went to the trouble of creating my own theme, a subsequent update left the sidebar without the actual background image—it’s just a plain, solid color now. What’s the point of putting in all that effort to make things look good, only for a single Firefox update to ruin everything? They’re pushing these vertical tabs on us, yet they haven’t even bothered to implement proper support for them. I really wish they’d finally address the vertical tabs and give them a decent, polished look; it’s not a bad feature, it’s just half-baked.

linux fullscreen behavior wrong

Both F11 and right click full screen doesn't hide the url+tabs rows like it does on windows instead it only hides bookmark toolbar and triggers the window manager full screen, which should be separate, as I already have my window manager keybinds for that, and if I use window manager full screen F11 would currently undo it

Tested on i3, Xorg without window manager, and sway

Expected behavior: After firefox is full screen in window manager, pressing F11 should hide everything except the webpage, making it 100% of the monitor

Actual behavior: toggles window manager full screen status

arch linux, firefox installed through pacman
