Firefox Community Forum

Since updating Firefox from a previous version, the browser no longer displays any Unicode emoji characters. Where an emoji would normally be rendered (👁️), the browser instead displays empty space. Websites such as twitter and discord, which use their own artwork for emoji, are unaffected. This has negatively affected my browsing experience.

For illustrative purposes, I will add a series of emoji and include a screenshot of how they are displayed: (😀🙁😡💀). Other characters still display correctly: (β❖♞䷲⎈𐘢𓀺இ). My computer otherwise displays emoji correctly. The issue persists after disabling extensions, and has persisted between computer restarts.

I'm running Linux (NixOS) and Firefox version 148. I've tested on Chrome based browsers and they work fine. Tested on Firefox forks and they also don't display correctly. This is new since less than a week ago.

Thanks for any help with this.

How do I get the full url line of where I am currently on the homepage back for the search line, or the old full browser line? Have been looking in settings and haven't located it.

About ready to leave firefox over it, and been here for years.

Thanks,

Michelle

Whenever I try to paste something using Crtl + V or Crtl + V + Shift, this little paste text box thing pops up even after I've already pasted from what I wanted to paste.

Does anyone know how to get rid of it, it's very annoying.

Hello. I have two questions about settings. 1. I want to hide the "Take Screenshot" option from the Firefox right-click menu. 2. I want to hide the "Original Profile" option from the options that appear when you click the Firefox hamburger menu.

I'm asking about these two points. 1. I'm trying to hide the "Take Screenshot" option, but I couldn't find a solution even after searching. about:config ↓ extensions.screenshots.disabled ↓ From true to false ↓ Even restarting Firefox didn't hide the "Take Screenshot" option. 2. Regarding hiding the "Original Profile," I can't find any information about this option, so is it impossible to hide it? I'm asking about these two points.

Thank you in advance. I have a question about the "Screen zoom ratio" that appears in the Firefox address bar. I don't know how to hide it. The address bar is set to 105%, which I find to be the best zoom ratio, so I keep it set to that. I know you're busy, but I would really appreciate it if you could let me know. Thank you very much.

Last week I went to my Firefox browser, my main browser for years, only to find the background is a disturbing pink and all my bookmarks are gone. What happened to change my data and page...did I do something to choose a new format?

This may sound really stupid to some but I get really ticked that the 'refresh' arrow is so far away from the URL. I have to use my trackpad to do this and it's a pain to have to go so far. Every other browser has it right next to the address bar. It may sound lazy but I'm 70, have arthritis and try not to overuse the track pad. Harumph!

As you can see Chrome has it right next to the address bar while Safari's is contained right in it. A simple thing but it can make all the difference. Does it but anyone else?

I picked one of the approved Themes; however, after making some moves on the browser, it reverts to the system theme. How do I make the theme I choose stay regardless of the actions that I may take?
