Hello Gboard developers,

I'm a huge fan of Gboard and appreciate all its features, from the themes to glide typing. However, I've encountered a significant and frustrating bug that seems specific to using Gboard within the Firefox browser on my device.

The issue is that when typing in text input fields (including the search bar) in Firefox, Gboard will randomly delete previously typed words, particularly when I'm trying to edit or add to existing text.

Interestingly, Gboard functions perfectly as expected in all my other applications. This leads me to believe the problem might stem from an interaction between Gboard and Firefox itself. It's also worth noting that I haven't experienced this issue with other keyboard apps while using Firefox.

This bug is especially disruptive when typing in Thai, as it often breaks up words, rendering them nonsensical.

I'm hopeful that you can investigate this issue. Resolving it would make Gboard the absolute perfect keyboard for me, as this is the only obstacle I've encountered.

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

Hello, I recently created a mobile-friendly tool at https://www.eyecolorcalculator.com. It works fine on Chrome and Safari, but in Firefox for Android, the layout gets broken—some buttons don’t respond and font sizes become irregular.

I’ve used standard HTML/CSS and JavaScript. I also tried adding viewport meta tags and tested in responsive mode but still facing issues. Is there any known issue with Firefox rendering modern CSS on mobile? Or something specific I need to fix?

Thanks in advance.

The new video player is buggy, previously the ios own video player worked perfectly, why change it?

Now I can't even put the video in horizontal and also it has a very bad interface

Previously Firefox just used ios-own video player.

Will you come back to the ios video player? tomorrow I found out you changed it and I'm sad.

When will you return to the previous one?
