Good morning and/or evening!

Within the last year, I upgraded my phone from iOS to Android, and decided to switch browsers from Safari to FireFox while I was at it. The mobile version of FireFox has served me very well so far, especially the collections feature!

I also like to use private tabs to save content I may not want to view until later. Unfortunately, due to FireFox automatically closing private tabs, I often lose my place and reading lists.

The option to Keep Private Tabs is available on the iOS version of Firefox, as shown on this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/automatically-close-private-tabs-when-leaving-priv. Would it be possible to make this an option for Android users as well?

Thank you for your time and help!

It was a nice ride while it lasted

I have a HUGE problem with Firefox memory usage. Some open instances of firefox are taking anywhere from 600mb to 2.8gb of memory. Since firefox opens MANY instances even with only ONE active window, this very quickly uses all available memory (4gb) causing a full laptop crash.

More concerning is that CLOSING the worst instance of memory usage STILL leaves the single open page/tab open, so what exactly was the memory eating instance actually doing ???

I have included a screengrab of the many remaining instances of firefox in windows task manager AFTER closing the main culprit.

I have also included a screengrab of all the adblockers I use which I believed would limit unnecessary memory usage, but does not seem to be effective.

Many Thanks

I mistakenly deleted my password from Thunderbird's Password Manager. I have my primary password to log into Thunderbird but don't have the password to sign into my account. I've been trying for days now with no luck. How do I set a password in password manager?

I have "Don't enable HTTPS-Only Mode" selected and still cannot connect to local sites. Example http://192.168.1.81 is chnaged to https://192.168.1.81 and rrecive cannot connect message.

This problem started after you last week after an update.

Since the last major update, the title bar is blank. Not missing, blank white. If I use the task bar to shrink and restore it, it appears normally. Sometime in normal use it suddenly appears. A search didn't find anything for me. Any ideas?

My email was hacked in a data breach decades ago but I am now getting more serious problems: I and my friends on my contact list are getting spam emails from me. So they are actually using my email account to send them and therefore I cannot block them.

Also, I have noticed that I am not getting emails from my bank and energy company who say that they have been delivered. However I have not received them.

Is there a way to stop this? Someone suggested setting up an alias email account linked to my email. Would this work? I have tried a full scan but cannot find anything suspicious on my laptop or phone.

Does anyone know how I can sort this problem out?

I just learnt that the mozilla firefox terms of service have been either updated, or previously included, a clause of sorts that states that any content uploaded to mozzilla is automatically given a royalty free worldwide license to mozilla itself. Does this apply to content such as add-ons only or does it apply to things uploaded to other websites(such as social media, forums, etc)

I'm not staying on Firefox after the TOS update and I would like to submit a GDRP erasure order to Mozilla. what email would be appropriate to send that to. or even better a way to opt out of the TOS and have whatever data was already collected/sold removed from all party's servers.

Hi,

I saw that firefox deleted all of its language about not selling user data and that has me concerned. I chose to use firefox in a large part because I did not want my data to be sold and this change has me preparing to change browsers this week. Can you please offer a thorough explanation about why firefox is going back on a policy that it once claimed it "never have and never will"? How is my data being used, sold, and profited off of by firefox with this change? Is there a way for me to opt out of my data being sold?

Often I can't access content indicated by a link in an article or email. I tried turning off the Firefox firewall, but it made no difference. Now I am unable to turn the firewall back on.

Hi there,

I know that many users have hated that Firefox asks for the master password from the beginning, but I would like to find an option for it to request it at the user's discretion.

I'm currently using both Firefox Developer Edition and Firefox ESR in portable versions stored on a USB drive for my work outside of the office or home.

The Developer Edition is synced with my Mozilla account and used on both Windows 10 and Linux systems. Conversely, Firefox ESR, which I use on Windows 7 devices, has synchronization disabled. As a result, with Sync turned off and no sensitive data stored in any Firefox installation, Firefox ESR doesn't prompt me for a master password.

Why do I want Firefox to ask for the master password right from the start, even without any sensitive data saved? It's quite simple: sometimes I'm surrounded by non-techy people and I'd like to give the 'impression' (when they see me using Firefox, because most use 'the other browser') that I'm 'protecting something'. It's also a way to 'intimidate' to some extent (if a password isn't entered, they'll think something won't work properly).

It may sound silly, but it's something that 'the other browser' doesn't offer locally.

Also (and I think it's logical), I find it ironic that having other sensitive data saved in Firefox, like enabled cookies, it doesn't ask for the master password, only when there are saved passwords or forms.

website (well known newspaper) is correctly listed in search bar. Sometimes the search allows just the website name/sometimes front page. Unfortunately, I cannot access the information shown. Unresponsive to my attempt to select a news story

How do I stop the autofill/saved addresses from adding +1 to my phone number? I constantly have to remove it from data fields on websites because they expect only "555-555-5555".

One of the sites I like to visit just started doing pop-up ads. I thought I had them blocked. How do I block pop-ups? I cannot seem to find in the in the settings?
