Accessibilty denied constantly by firefox and ui changes.

clapham.o

Greetings, I am on the spectrum with aspergers. I have issues with organization, lining up objects, etc, but I am highly intelligent and present well. I have no doubt society is aware of all the tropes that surround folks with my......difference. I have an incredibly hard dealing with change, and it sometimes wrecks my mental health. The changes are constantly throwing my health and welfare for a loop, and it is really harmful.

Everytime I get firefox setup to where I am comfortable, something new gets shoved down my throat. How to stop the constant feature change diarrhea abuse is inflicting on my health? Recent example. I only use 2 search engines, and I cant deal with the rest, its a colour thing sorry. I have had my search engines set up like this for 14 years.

Recently, firefox decided that I should go for another life rollercoaster, even though I didn't ask for it, and that I should permanently have things like history bookmarks tabs and actions as search engines, and they shouldn't be removable.

I don't have a history, as I value my privacy. I don't have bookmarks, because I remember everything and it sucks, and I type about 350 wpm. Tabs information is within history, so I see firefox as duplication idiots in this case, and I don't do any actions, not even sure what they are and I really don't care at all.

My parents are considering a lawsuit against firefox for accessibility issues like this, as 1 of my dad's best friends is an accessibility lawyer.

How can i stop firefox from constantly flipping my autism world upside down? I don't want my parents to sue them because it will bring a lot of attention on me.

Please help me re-normalize the internet for spectrum users.

Thanks for the support Firefox

clapham.o, you might want to look into the Extended Support Release (ESR) version of Firefox. It maintains up-to-date security and bugfixes, but only adds new features once a year or so. People can use this edition if they would prefer the Firefox features and UI etc. to remain stable and consistent for much longer periods.

The ESR version of Firefox can be found here: https://www.firefox.com/download/all/desktop-esr/

I appreciate your response TechHorse, but this just delays the same problems 1000s are looking to address. The fact that this continues after 30+ years indicates to me that a lawsuit is nessecary to wake up Mozilla.
