Diễn đàn hỗ trợ Firefox

To sign into Chatgbt I used my google account. Mozilla asks me "do I want to store info in persistent storage?" I click "learn more" about persistent storage. It takes me to a page that has zero mention of the words "persistent storage". That is a huge UX error. It says to me that really, you don't want me to know about persistent storage, and prefer that I remain confused and feel forced to agree to things I may not really want to, because you're making it difficult to understand what's actually involved. Not cool. Definitely now considering changing my browser after over 20 years.

Hi,

Looking at my Firefox 147.0.1 settings for macOS 26.2 (Apple M1), I'm trying to adjust two settings:

-- I'd like to remove Languages -> English (GB) (its existence has odd side effects, like triggering United Airlines to offer fares in Pounds Sterling, and I'd prefer to just have English (US))

-- I'd like to disable Play Audio and Video for about:welcome (in regular and private windows)

I can see no way to accomplish this currently -- why?

Thanks.

This might be quite "old man yells at cloud" of me, but oh my god I am so fed up of everything putting AI in as a "feature" for no reason.

1) No one asked for this. 2) It is bad at doing whatever it is designed to do. (It's not helpful, it's not even neutrally unhelpful, it's ANTI-HELPFUL.) 3) It is always on by default, or worse, impossible to turn off.

At the very least AI features need to be off by default, because it's rubbish.

Firefox is meant to be a bastion of sanity and safety in a world of exploitative techbros trying to steal our data and trick us into making money for them. So-called "AI" goes against this. Please, Firefox, be better.

As of 20th Nov 2025, here's how to turn off AI features. Go into about:config and set all of these to false (yes, you’ll have to copy and paste them one by one):

• browser.ml.enable
• browser.ml.chat.enabled
• browser.ml.chat.menu
• browser.ml.chat.page
• browser.ml.chat.page.footerBadge
• browser.ml.chat.page.menuBadge
• browser.ml.linkPreview.enabled
• browser.ml.pageAssist.enabled
• browser.tabs.groups.smart.enabled
• browser.tabs.groups.smart.userEnabled
• extensions.ml.enabled
• browser.search.visualSearch.featureGate

in addition to nuking AI, it’ll also speed up your browsing

Hello.

1. How to save a tab group without closing it? 2. How to make individual tabs in a tab group permanent? (So when you close a tab group only the permanent members are preserved.)

'I am running fiefox version 147.0.3 in MacOS version 26.2. Every second time I start the program firefox tries to take 15GB of memory. The process does not respond (as this is equivalent to more than the memory available plus the swap space). I have to kill the process and the second time the program has standar memory needs. How can I help developers?

my bookmark bar disappered suddenly and all my tabs are gone. i tried to bookmark a new tab but it would not let me. and i didnt do anything different. opened my laptop today and i had to restore all tabs, and my bookmark bar is gone and all my shortcuts from bookmarks are gone too

Hello,

When I try to visit a specific journal site that requires authentication, the browser automatically redirects me to an authentication page that I have used before. This is very annoying because every time I click a link to the journal, I’m sent to the other portal and can’t access the article. I want to stress that I haven’t installed any add‑on that would cause this redirection. I think I did that myself manually but I have no idea how. I’ve already deleted the cookies for both sites, but nothing has changed. I hope that makes sense, it’s a bit difficult to explain.

I'm using firefox 147.0, on mac Tahoe 26.2.

Thanks for the help !

I see many complaints about this new version v 149 for the Mac. The most outrageous one is that you can no longer drag links from a browser page (try BBC) to an email or a doc. You have to copy the link then it won't turn blue and only when received will it show up as a link. Like many others after 30 years use preferred over Safari and others I am seriously losing patience with Firefox. On the very day you announce split screen for Ff windows - you disable a vital feature that has worked for years causing me to waste so far 60 minutes of my hard pressed work time. Maybe this will be corrected in the next upgrade. But I am now intending to avoid all Firefox upgrades for 6 months after being offered. I doubt anyone on this forum will come back on this but my set-up is Mac OS Monterey - and Firefox v 148 worked perfectly before today. I hesitate to try and install the previous version because I am not used to doing such tech moves. Perhaps someone in the Mozilla head office congratulating themselves on the marvellous new upgrade will come across this but I doubt it

I have firefox running on my mac desktop, macbook and iphone. Starting yesterday the firefox password manager has stopped working on my desktop - it won't make any suggestions for passwords on web pages. I've been reduced to going to about:prefererences, manage passwords and manually searching for my password. It still works on my macbook and iphone. Any suggestions as to how to debug this?

I just updated my browser less than a week ago. Today I got another notification for yet another update. This logs me out of everything.

WHY so many and so frequent are firefox browser updates. I am about to stop using this brower if it continues. It's very disruptive!

Thank you for your attention to this.

The autofill card details isn't working. When I try to I get the message "You have no saved cards."

When I go into the Privacy & Security tab I can see that I have a number of cards saved correctly.
