Updated to Firefox 152.0.1 and I've noticed about:privatebrowsing now has a very bright garish (subjective) purple background; I'd like to replace this with something else.

Here's what I've tried so far:

• Adding the css in this 2023 reddit post to my userchrome.css
• Fiddling with about:config, per Ty and James' replies in this similar 2022 question
• As a sanity check, directly editing the style element of the body tag in the inspector to check if `background-color: #424242` the css works. (obviously doesn't stick, see first point)
• As a second sanity check, changing the colour in the userchrome.css to fuchsia, as I'd read in older articles there'd sometimes be a flash of colour before something else was applied and bright pink is easier to see than grey
• Changing the Firefox theme from System theme (Auto) to Dark, Light, and then Firefox Alpenglow to see if that would change the background colour (it doesn't).

I do see that Alpenglow theme now matches about:privatebrowsing shockingly well, but it's not my preferred flavour of utilitarian blacks/dark greys.

Tried to show what I'm after, screenshot of about:privatebrowsing in a split view next to about:newtab. Other than above, the only other things in my userchrome.css are some styles to attempt to return curvy tabs edges.

12 hours ago Firefox stopped working .No reason ; no changes just the following message including access to this site.So now I have to access with edge . Secure Connection Failed

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

This is the 3rd time I have had to post this. I am getting very frustrated. I DO NOT want the search engine within my address bar. Nothing anyone from you "community" helped to disable the search engine in my address bar. Opera, Edge, Chrome, the user can disable the search engine in the address bar. Why is Firefox so different? And difficult?

Those instructions don't work and I'm sick of spending so much time on this problem these days.

Now thinking it happens after an update, which is a problem because they seem to come just days apart. None of the solutions offered works because right-clicking on the top doesn't do anything. Nor does going into the settings in the app on my laptop or online. I've downloaded and installed the latest version of Firefox more than once in the recent past. I've also shut down my laptop and rebooted. Nothing works. It's extremely annoying not to be able to access the features that I use *all the time*! day. I'm using a laptop with updated Windows 11.

Tab group name's width get maximized after dragging it to other place. Please refer to the third tab group from the image. If I restart the browser, the width become normal until I drag n drop it again.

when the Firefox install asks for a password, which password are they referring to?

Also, instructions say to use "sudo" in Terminal - how does one get to that ?

I am so excited to use the FF VPN, I get many notifications about it but what am I doing wrong - I don't see the VPN option in my browser. I am updated, use DuckDuckgo for searching. I've written before but we never go anywhere. Wish I could get the VPN to work as I really want to try it thank you

When there is a field to fill in my credit card info, the info will appear and let me select the CC I want to use but when I move away from the field the CC info goes away.

When I restart Firefox, it opens all of my bookmarks, each in a separate tab. It takes forever to close them all down one by one. then it happens again the next time I restart Firefox. I'm on a windows laptop.

My Firefox is set to auto-update and did so Wednesday night, so it's currently 152.0.1 (64-bit). Since then, it’s been virtually unusable on my home computer (a 2017 iMac Intel Core i5 running Ventura 13.7.8).

I’ve changed nothing about the way I browse, yet having multiple tabs open at a time makes the application either non-responsive and I have to force quit or makes it crash (from today: bp-3c95c176-fde2-40e4-a61c-c5c080260619 bp-7ebe2fc9-0be2-4db2-b0e3-675df0260619 bp-bfe86698-eaf0-4cd2-96c3-ed20b0260619

It crashed four times yesterday as well, but I inadvertently submitted ALL previously un-submitted crashes, so I'd have to dig through to find ones from June 18th).

I can't get most websites to load. I cleared all my browsing data this afternoon in the hopes that it would help, but now I'm having trouble logging into sites like Facebook, Instagram, etc.

Videos on any platform will not load, let alone play. Instagram, YouTube, Peacock (which I think was having an outage last night), Twitter, BlueSky, etc. YouTube BRIEFLY loaded and played a video last night but there was no audio. I tried searching a word’s pronunciation in Google, no audio. It will not play audio on any music sites (SoundCloud and Bandcamp; they both show that the music is playing, but the indicator bars do not move on either site, and again, no audio).

I believe this is an update issue because work computer (MacBook Air, 2017 running Monterey 12.7.6) is using Firefox 151.0.1 and everything is working as normal there (fortunately I leave Firefox open all the time on that computer so it hasn't auto-updated). It had also been running fine BEFORE the update.

Any ideas on a fix?
