Privacy mode shortcut is pointless if the browser always opens in private mode afterwards opening the app normally.

Silly design/UX choice: There is an option to add a 'private browsing' home screen app icon shortcut. The problem with it: if you go into private mode and close the app after, the app always starts in private mode until you manually change it (it's 1 extra tap but annoying, there should be a setting to keep state or set a default to normal browsing... (Or either option)) As a software designer, simple things like this really get on my nerves...

To begin with, as there isn't an option in the drop down, I thought settings would be the best place to begin.

Hi,

 I'm curious if there is an avenue to customize FF, first for desktop and maybe the mobile,  and possibly even enterprise if accepted, via source. If it is possible, where exactly can I find the code? This is a preliminary question and I do plan to check git. The reason I'm starting here, one may ask of me. The answer is simple enough, like any other enthusiast dev, time is a resource best spent doing something you enjoy. So, where better to ask than the experts and community who may have a link on speed dial. 

Thank you all for any help!

Ask Gemini Option Persistent on Firefox for Android

Any text selected in Firefox for Android on a Samsung Tablet has the "Ask Gemini" option with no way to turn it off.

This only appears on Firefox, does not happen on the same tablet in DuckDuckGo, Google Play Store, Fossify Notes App, Wikipeida app. Only in Firefox on Samsung. (Does not appear on Firefox on Sony phone).

Gemini is not installed on the Samsung Tablet, and ALL of the possible AI settings, assistants and apps are disabled, turned off or opted out of in both the Samaung Settings, the Google Account, the Mozzilla Account and the Firefox browser settings. There is no active assistant running on the device and Gemini is not even an installed app.

As this is ONLY ever appearing in Firefox for Android on the tablet and absolutely no other apps without Gemini even being installed and actively being blocked from running makes me think this is a bug specific to Firefox.

Screenshots included as this shows it the different apps listed and that this menu is different per app as some have their own context items, which again supports this being a potential bug specific to Firefox.

How can this be sucessfully reported, removed, turned off or customised to stop the accidental activation of an AI Assistant from Firefox when selecting text? (Either as text already on a page or text that has been typed into a form or doc via the web.)

Hello!

I have the "Block AI Features" setting enabled, but I'm still getting the "Ask Gemini" option in the long-hold context menu for Firefox Mobile on Android.

Is there any way to remove this option? It's cluttering the context menu and I dont want to misclick it. Or otherwise, is this a known and tracked issue?

I really don't like the "swipe right to go back" function on the mobile browser: I always trigger it by mistake and reload a previous page when I don't intend to. It's especially bad when reading webcomics, as I have to zoom in and move aroud a lot on the page, and if I hit the left edge a bit too fast I get sent to the previous web page.

I dug around a bit in the settings but couldn't find the option to disable this function, so if you could add it (or explain where to find it if it's already there) I'd be most grateful.

P.S. Please don't ever add AI slop to Firefox, I beg of you

I'm looking for a solution to open links in progressive web apps in full firefox: in a new page, with a usable address bar, and the link being one of the tabs in firefox mobile. I know you can tap the three dots and then "open in firefox" but i hate the two extra gestures every single time.
