Firefox — Fora społeczności

I wish to get rid of your logo when I go into Firefox and it appears on my blank screen. Very annoying. I use Firefox as my browers and have been very happy with it. I just want to get rid of the logo everytime I go into firefox. Thanks for any information you can give me.

Since dawn of times I'm using Firefox with a search box in the center of my Home page for new tabs and windows. It is the most important tool in my life as a web content manager. A few years ago my searches suddenly started to jump to the URL bar as soon as I started typing. An URL bar is - as the says - for URL's and it sits way at the top of my 27" and 32" screens, where my focus is not.

Luckily, this forum saved me with the about:config setting browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar > false to save my life.

A few months ago this was broken by 148.something. After about a month in hell that was repaired with a dot release. And now (151.0.3, Windows 11) it's broken again:

In normal mode it still works as expected, but the search box is not in the center anymore, it has been moved up to about 300 px from the top. Fixed, independent from window size !?! If you make the window small it moves out sight eventually.

In Private Windows it is still in the center vertically, but browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar > false does not seem to work there. As soon as I start typing it jumps to the address bar.

Prior to a recent browser update, my Firefox New Tab page was completely clean, minimalist, and beautifully displayed the custom background image I had chosen.

However, after the latest update, a large Firefox logo and wordmark have been forced onto the center-top of the New Tab page, completely cluttering the background image. There is no standard toggle or switch anywhere in the "Personalize" or Home settings menu to turn this logo off.

I have already tried the advanced about:config workaround by setting browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.logowordmark.alwaysVisible to False, but the logo remains visible anyway. Even ensuring that "Web Search" is toggled on/off does not resolve the issue.

Please provide a built-in settings option to hide this branding watermark, or a working configuration flag so users can enjoy a clean, unobstructed view of their chosen wallpapers.

I like the concept of having various news articles & topics of interest on the Start Page. However, I don't like the fact that many of the links take me to "subscriber only" sites, and ones that I have no subscription to! We should be able to eliminate those sites we can't read the articles on, it would be pretty easy to have that option, instead of our having to waste time, going on wild goose chases!

And I first attempted to log in to the feedback & suggestions page, however Firefox's own password auto-fill, kept putting in the wrong password, (one for a completely different site), and when I searched to find the correct password, it was too late. Soon as I entered the correct one, it locked me out, saying too many consecutive attempts had been made! To make it worse, the error message gave no info as to what my next step should be!! It didn't say to try later, how much later, provided no link to a page to reset my password, no "forgot password" option, nothing. Why is logging in on Mozilla's own, various sites, always seem to be so buggy? I've had more issues just trying to log in, than I ever should have, no idea why this happens so often, although with the auto-fill inputting the wrong information, that could be one reason.

Since the last update, not this recent one, there has been a huge empty space at the top of the home page. I had to close the search so my favorites wern't off the bottom of the screen. I'd really like to remove the Firefox logo, move my favorites to the top of the page and the search under that. Can you make it more customizable?

Note what I wrote above. I simply want to optimize my use of this option and can't if it doesn't allow me access to sites that I desire to access rather than ones that simply pop into these squares as existing, irrelevant, I suppose Firefox placed, options are deleted. Most of which I've seen and received are irrelevant to me.

On my homepage dismissing suggestion after suggestion of random websites i've visited singular times. It's creepy as hell the way firefox chooses random shit from my history to suggest to me. Remember that wikipedia article you read last week? They'll suggest that page instead of suggesting wikipedia itself? It's not helpful, I'm not navigating the web quicker because of it, if i wanted to find something from my history I'd search through my fucking history, it's creepy firefox's homepage algorithm tries to do that for me. It's annoying that I can click "dismiss" on a page, and it'll just show up at the end of the list! I fucking hate it and I spent way too long dismissing page after page after page until it finally suggested non-creepy links that i could pin so I never get a fUCKING suggestion for a goddamn reddit discussion I read five months ago ever again. It'd be nice if there was just a way to choose the fucking links that go there, or to fucking tell firefox to stop suggestion certain things outright, but who at mozilla actually gives a shit about what the user wants? I saw what y'all did with the mobile app, ya'll hate your userbase and having a functioning product god damn.

I love you Firefox but what gives you the right to change/mess with my settings on my home page and make it difficult for non technical user to change back to preferred look???????? Why do you do it?

I mistakenly agreed to update Firefox to V 151.02. Once again I regret it but there is no way to turn off the stupid prompt windows telling to you to update.

Now when i open a new tab , the wasted space on my COMPUTER screen is incredible. Instead of the old format withm3 wide "columns" of suggested stories/articles it is now one prominent, and a narrow list of only two wide. requiring me to scroll down twice as far as I used to. I have large white blank unused screen space being wasted. It seems to be optimized for only people who use their narrow phone screens only in portrait mode.

I hate the random useless changes that affect my normal everyday usage of the browser, without any options to go back to old formats or settings.

I am actually thinking of switching to EDGE, or Chrome on my Windows computers.

Wish Mitchel was still my student as I would vocalize my complaint directly to them. But that was back in the days when it was a responsive community .org. Not the now privatized for profit entity that Mozilla has become.

As i had to create another useless account just to submit any sort of feedback, watch as I get constant useless emails with no relevance to anything in my life, as all i wanted was a simple way to make my screen the same as it was for the past versions

It is just all the "sexy" photoos of movie stars and such. I mean, it's okay but iit's a terrible distraction and I find myself going there and wastding too much time. Can I get rid of all that on my oppening screen?

Depuis une récente mise à jour Firefox, les tuiles de raccourcis de la page Nouvel onglet sont devenues beaucoup trop petites avec énormément d’espace perdu à gauche et à droite. Le confort visuel est moins bon qu’avant, surtout sur grands écrans.

There are some articles that are biased with some real misinformation. One person has an experience and the author is purported to be an expert just because they have some degree with little or no relevance to real world people, just some niche group who would like to be considered mainstream. As much as I love the start page with some interesting articles, it seems most days lately, theories put forth as facts are out of touch with mainstream America.

New Tab page Top Sites layout breaks at high UI scaling (150–170%). Tiles are pushed too far down and become partially off-screen. The grid does not remain vertically centered and does not scale properly with increased zoom or DPI scaling. At 170% scaling, several tiles are not visible without scrolling. i am use version 151.0.1 last i open browser an watch here
