When I have stories (articles) recommended through Pocket on new tabs that I'm not interested in I will typically "thumbs down" or "dismiss" the story. What I have found recently is that causes them to be promoted to me more rather than less. I believe it's interpreting my interaction as engaging with the content rather than not wanting to see it again. For example, I was shown an article on American football three weeks ago and I gave it a thumbs down. Later that day it was three articles. I gave them the same thumbs down. After repeating this process for days, weeks later I'm still getting multiple articles recommended per day related to football. I've never read one out of interest, and I didn't have any recommendations related to sports until the first one I gave a thumbs down. Based on that, I'm convinced it's having the opposite than intended effect. Dismiss doesn't seem make a difference. Please give me a way to tune the algorithm to what I actually want to see, I like this feature and don't want to have to turn it off.

Hi everyone, I'm asking for help following the latest update (Firefox 143.0.1): the corners of the top site preview boxes have changed, as shown in the first screenshot. I was wondering if it's possible to permanently restore them to the same state as in the second screenshot, perhaps via userContent.css.

so after launching firefox i noticed that the shortcut icons below the search bar are smaller which is just frustrating and i can't find anywhere how to change them, could i get some help with this?

IT HAS BECOME VERY FRUSTRATING TO USE MY HOME PAGE WITH THE LITTLE BOX FOR EACH WEB SITE I GO TO REGULARLY. IF I CLICK ON THE ONE FOR MY BANK, MULTIPLE ONES ARE APPEARING WHEN I GET OUT OF THE SITE. CAN I GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS VERSION? I AM ON WINDOWS 10. I SELECTED AN ITEM IN YOUR TOPICS SELECTION, BUT I DID ONLY SO I CAN CONTINUE AND SUBMIT MY QUESTION. NONE OF THE TOPICS SEEM TO FIT MY SITUATION. I AM ALSO RECEIVING ADVERTISING LITTLE BOXES. HOW DO I STOP THAT/ I NEVER HAD THESE ISSUES WITH THE PREVIOUS VERSION. THANK YOU.

When I click for a new tab, all the shortcuts I have are moved down awkwardly. Can you fix that? That does not seem to be a good choice. Please change. The attached image shows that everything has moved down and I cannot see the names of the shortcuts. Why did you do this? Please fix that. There was absolutely no reason to do that!

Q: Homepage and Tabs allows URLs; New Tabs offers only Blank and Firefox Home (Default)

Any way for New Tabs to also have a URL? Why not?

Thanks.

How can I customize recommended stories so that only articles that require a sign-in to be viewed not be shown to me. If I see a story title that looks interesting and I select it and a sign in page immediately pops up (all of which I do not wish to sign up for just to read a short article) then it feels like another privacy grab.

Trying to read the news articles, find something interesting, only for it to be sub-walled or pay-walled.... Been reporting them for over a year, nothing seems to change. I'd imagine a simple script would be able to open these links one at a time and detect a pay/sub-wall immediately and 86 it from the line-up..... You'd think.... But I also think it's safe for us to assume the reason they don't bother fixing this consistent, widely-encountered issue, is because they acquire coinage for unique hits on those pages. It's disappointing AF, because we all know they could fix it with EASE. That is all.

As of Updating to 142.0.1 (64 bit, Windows 10) yesterday, the Home Page / New Tab page now has DOZENS of RECOMMENDED STORIES under different Topics, instead of the former more compact and manageable grid or 15 or 18 items.

Under SETTINGS - HOME - RECOMMENDED STORIES it seems you can only toggle RECOMMENDED STORIES ON or OFF.

On the Home / New Tab page itself, you can only Select whether to FOLLOW or BLOCK Topics. The page is now TOO LONG and much TOO BUSY and not worth endlessly Scrolling to find the two or three articles of possible interest.

QUESTION: Where is, or Why is there Not, an Option for the former "Legacy" RECOMOMENDED STORIES? The Alternative is to turn RECOMMENDED STORIES OFF - which defeats the purpose of supporting your News or Advertisers to Support MOZILLA.

The Display Options for SHORTCUTS offers choices of 2 rows, 3 rows, etc ... Why Not an Option for RECOMMENDED STORIES limiting to a fixed number as well ?

Thank you for your consideration ...

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?

I recently changed to Firefox as my default web browser. I cannot prevent shortcuts from populating the browser when I visit sites. The sites add their shortcut no matter what.

I tried changing "settings > home" to not save shortcuts, which works. But even if I PIN those shortcuts I want to keep, they still get deleted. How do I fix this?

I installed Firefox on a fresh Win 11 install, and most of the the favicons are still generic on the Home Page several days later. Facebook, Ebay and Youtube are the only ones that appear consistently, sometimes other will display, but then be gone again the next time the app is launched. All other links just have the generic letter icons.

I tried deleting the 3 favicon files in the Profiles folder, but it did nothing. I've tried manually re-adding the links, still nothing. I removed the "S" from "https;//" and still nothing. The favicons all show up on my other machines which use Firefox on the same user account, so it is not a problem with the websites themselves.

Not sure if its related, but upon installing Firefox on this machine, it made Firefox on my Mac desktop absolutely freak out. I had to make a significant number of changes over the course of hours to fix everything, so many relating to favicons alone that I don't know what actually fixed it.

What else can I do to try and get these working? Why does Firefox apparently struggle with this particular feature across multiple OSes?

Thanks.

There is a perfectly functional search bar in the middle of my homepage. why do I have to search with the anything but "awesomebar"? I have made so many changes to about:config true to false false to true firefox will probably never work again properly. There should be a check box somewhere in settings to toggle this on and off. Newer is not always better

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

In the main page (new tab), upper right corner the weather is displayed. However, in my case it shows Paris, France. Been there! - but not in 40years.

the three dots beside the location open a search bar that does nothing. i enter my location... does nothing entered my zipcode... does nothing.

restarted my browser ..... no avail restarted my pc ... no avail

cleared cookies ... then restarted browser ... no avail

Windows 10 firefox ver: Version 143.0.1 (64-bit)

side note: this issue is also on my laptop w11
