How do I get rid of the requirement of having ctrl or alt in extension shortcuts? Also overriding firefox shortcuts would be nice.

I've been using my binds/shortcuts in chrome for years and I'm not adding multiple keys to all of them. I really want to use firefox as my only browser but can't because of these stupid restrictions.

Hi,

I am managing some linux servers in schools.

Actualy a lot of users are working with firefox.

Depending on how the user is working with firefox, the profil may reclaims a lot of disk space.

Is there a tool working like :

firefox_cleaning_tool /path_of_profile /options xxx

with some options like : cache / etc...

For exemple : the tool flushes profiles caches files and user have no action to do to continue using firefox as usual

this kind of tool should run every month (ie with crontab)

Is there a way to do that ?

I can manual flush some folders contents but I am afraid to do mistakes.

Thanks for your help

Support Firefox to be able to use different tab view modes on different windows! For example, two Firefox windows on different monitors, in my situation below:

- One on a 1920*1080 hori screen, with vertical tab sidebar disabled - One on a 1080*1920 vert screen, with vertical tab sidebar enabled for this window only in this case.

It brings much more convenience, at least for situations just like mine :)

I appreciate the "Translate Selection To" in the right click context menu is in Beta. For me it works but not as well as it might. For example, I am English, my laptop is set to English, I am viewing a website in English but it has some foreign text on it, so I hightlight the text, right click and I am offered to "Translate Selection To ... Slovenian" Why???

I then have to tell it the language of the source/highlighted text and I have to tell it I want the result in English. I can accept it might not recognise the language of the source text but it is very annoying that it assumes I want it converted to Slovenian instead of the systems default language.

To make it worse, having changed the languages to those I want, it doesn't remember them and the next time I use it I'm back to square one.

This would be a really useful feature if only it was logical.

Firefox should have a button to activate detectportal.firefox.com function as it continually communicates to the network even though it is not required. By placing a button it can be activated when needed.

is there is a way to make the side bar movement smoother like when you use the vertical tabs the movement of its bar is smooth so is there is a way to do the same thing to the side bar also i think it will be better if the side bar was in the top of the site cuz most of the time you will not use it you are just gonna open it to access the history or the bookmarks and close it again so there is no need to mess the page layout to match the new window size every time i open it if i need to press or see something behind it i will just close it .

When using the PiP feature is there a way to switch whether it pauses the video when closing the PiP player?

Often if i want the audio to continue but dont want the popout player there and if I press the close button it will just stop the audio. If I select the PiP window and use the shortcut CTRL + SHIFT + ] the audio will continue playing as I want it however this is inconvenient and requires using the keyboard, is there any way to change it so that closing the popout player doesn't stop the tab from playing audio?

I'd like to try enabling Tab Groups in Firefox 135.0 (64-bit). But I don't want to risk scrambling my gazillion or so tabs if Tab Groups is not stable.

I'd appreciate some feedback from Firefox users who have enabled Tab Groups.

I'm running Windows 10 version 22H2

Mac user here with an feature request: please provide a toolbar button for the `Share >` menu. I know it's behind the tab contextual menu (aka right-click menu) but still, it belongs on the toolbar.

When will this madness end?!

It used to be great.

ctrl shift n gets you back the last window

ctrl shift t gets you back the last tab.

Now, ctrl shift t gets you back the last window?!?!?!?!

WHAT ABOUT ALL THE TABS? I have to open history to see where i have been.

BRING IT BACK

I read somewhere that the change was to make firefox more like chrome. So let's cut off our nose to spite our face. This was major feature that DISTINGUISHED Firefox from chrome, and worth migrating to Firefox for!

Please please wake up and smell the coffee. Large corporations spend huge sums to achieve positive differentiation, and you threw it away.

It is the 'Search Bar' function on your Browser! It's an absolute nuisance to use. When you begin typing a question into the search bar it immediately (as you all know) diverts to the Address bar in the Browser. Your eyes have to divert your focus and attention every single time you use the Search Bar making the process fatiguing, exacerbated by having to put up with the smaller font used in the address bar. Google, EDGE and Opera, Doesn't use this method only Firefox. It's a real pain and the is the sole reason I will never make 'Fox' my default Browser.

Is there a way to remove the thumbtacks and rounded edges off the shortcuts in the newest version?

I love Firefox otherwise, but the thumbtacks look terrible and are distracting. I use the shortcuts dozens of times daily to open my most frequent sites.

Please remove the thumbtacks and overly rounded edges in the new version.

Is there a way to hide the thumbtacks?

Hello, would like tabs titles to be styled like in attachment (screen is from Simple Tab Groups addon). Especially would like to decrease (vertical) gaps between titles. Is it possible by editing userChrome.css or something like this?

I'm wondering if there's a way to MOVE open browser windows in the way that you can move tabs around within a window? I do a lot of research and I work this way in order to go back to a particular subject and continue where I left off. Right now I have 20 windows open with any where from 5 to 12 tabs in some of these windows. When using my pointer I see only the tab that was opened in a particular window when I closed FF. I tried holding the pointer and dragging the open windows in the task bar...but no luck.

I guess I'm asking if there's anyway I could get a quick view of what every tab in every window open actually is, or perhaps use search words to find what I'm looking for?

Thank you any response ~~Bonnie

Dear Firefox Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I would like to suggest a small but useful enhancement to the Firefox interface that I believe would improve user experience and accessibility.

Currently, in the "Customize Sidebar" section, the available tools are limited to a few items such as AI Chat, Tabs from Other Devices, History, and Bookmarks. I believe it would be very helpful to include "Downloads" as an additional sidebar tool.

This would allow users to quickly access their recent downloads without needing to go through the menu or use shortcuts. It adds convenience and aligns well with the purpose of the sidebar — offering quick access to frequently used features.

Thank you for your time and for continuously improving Firefox. I look forward to seeing future updates! Warm regards, Julabeeb a firefox user, developer, and contributor

I'm using Firefox 135.0 on a MacBook Pro with a large external monitor.

The menu bar at the top of the screen (NOT the Firefox window) has "Firefox, File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Windows, Help".

When I click on "History", it shows me the most recent 15 pages I visited. Always 15. I'd like to increase that number, as 15 is inconveniently few and uses less than half my screen height. However, I can't find a preference for it either under "Settings" or in "about:config".

I know that there are at least two ways to get to a more extensive history list, but they need more clicks.

So is there a way to change 15 into a larger number?

Thanks. Brendan.

I just activated the new tab grouping feature (that has been something I've really wanted from FF so that I can start getting away from Chrome) and I've tried it out and have been happy with it so far. I understand this is in beta still I think and I had some questions:

1. I notice that I'm not able to save and close a tab group, is this expected functionality until tab grouping goes GA?
2. I notice if I have my tab group minimized and have a tab open (that is NOT a part of the group) and I close that tab that the whole browser window will close. Is that also expected?

Really excited for this functionality to continue taking off; I do love a way to organize my many tabs!!

Cheers,
