Any progress with this?

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1384776

I've encountered a problem where the defaults appear to have changed.

The ability to adjust margins would help triage the problem.

Evidentially, about:config isn't supported on Android either.

Thanks in advance.

Guardian.com (Manchester Guardian) always recognises me as joing from Russia when I use Firefox & Mozilla VPN through Vancouver, Canada. Is there a simple reason for this? I am using a Walmart tablet (Android) but believe my windows 10 laptop gets the same response.

in Calgary, Canada.

I am only a non-computer-network system savvy engineer

Thanks

Hello. The issue is this: (1) I am unable to download pdfs via firefox(android), though the pdf file opens up in the browser itself instead of 'directly' being downloaded in the system. (2) Somehow you can still download the pdf by going to the menu and then to share option, and from thence you can select "save pdf" option– Your pdf is downloaded. Yet, if you open it in your system via any pdf veiwer app whatsoever, it would not open as it shows "decoding error". Kindly resolve this issue with immediate effect.

I'm on version 112.2.0 and I cannot disable the "feature" that haphazardly shoves my history in to groups that have nothing to do with each other but Firefox THINKS are related. The support post I've found discussing this promised there'd be a "disable search groups" option in version 97, but I'm on version 112.2.0, which (for those of you counting) is 5 mainline iterations afterwards. How do I fix this? It's constantly breaking my History.

I am using firefox v112.1.0 on a pixel 4a 5g (Android 13).

Websites fail to load about 70% of the time (the progress bar just hangs indefinitely). This isue is present regardless of whether or not I have any extensions enabled.

If I press the "stop loading" button then "refresh" enough times, eventually I'll get lucky and the website will load.

How can the android FF app not have a way of showing progress of downloads? I find this absolutely bizarre, when every other browser does this. It's critical information to have. You have no idea how much has downloaded or how long is left, the downloads window is just blank until it's fully completed downloading an item.
