I did not set up a password to view my passwords now I can't get out my passwords. I'm the only one who has access to the computer so there is no need for this "added security", more added annoyance. I've never had to have a password before to look up a password on one of my accounts but now I'm stuck with this function turned on. I think they must have forced it on me in a resent update because I just looked at my passwords last week. Yes, I know there is a thing to reset my passwords in Thunderbird and hopefully let me turn this silly requirement off. But I've tried that and it did nothing at all.

I am a longstanding user of Firefox/Mozilla but today I read that Mozilla is planning to begin a program to search and eliminate "hate speech and disinformation".

Who will decide what is 'hate speech' and who will decide what is "disinformation"? This proposal has the potential for horrifying results. The operation of such a campaign most likely will shut down voices we need to hear, even if we find them disagreeable. I try to listen to both sides and having an uncontrolled third party choose what I should and should not hear is the antipathy of freedom. Th people themselves and only themselves, should make such decisions.

Please abandon this proposal now.

Just would like to check if there are a feature of "Using Windows Hello when filling password" to provide second factor of authentication, honestly its amazing feature exist in chrome, and seeking for it in my favorite browser Mozilla :)

I visited eBay.com yesterday, Now, every time I search art or photos, an eBay page selling such items pops up. Adblock Pluse extension does not stop it.

So I was trying to test webauthn so I went to webauthn.io and then signed up with my username but firefox then tells me touch your security key to continue with webauthn.io but it works very well google chrome. and shows me a qr code and then I scan it in my phone. And after some search I think that the problem is that firefox defaults to use the security key which is a physical device but i don't want to use it I want to get the QR code. Also I tried different websites but got the same problem.

And by the way I use arch linux but I don't think that the problem is with arch as I mentioned before everything worked very well in google chrome.

Using 115.10.1 (32-bit), Windows 11.

I get a lot of SPAM. Much is filtered out upstream (via a Barracuda system supplied by my ISP) More (but less effectively) by Thunderbird. But some (too much) still gets through.

My question - most of the time I can recognize it's SPAM by only looking at headers - subject, and correspondent (sender). I have no need to check the email content.

But to junk the email I need to select it, which causes the email content to appear by the built in browser in TB.

Not an expert, but this seems like an unnecessary security risk, that gives the email content (and any included code) time to do something. Am I overthinking this? Is there a way to mark an email junk without selecting it?

thx,

When I recieve long e-mails that I must forward to others how do I edit parts of the text of the e-mails so some infos keep confidentials for some of the recipients and do not become public to all ? Do I have to rewrite the text everytime for each of the ?

My devices accounts for [email address] have been hacked by a remote user I can still barely login to Gmail but I can't seem to shake the tracker or whatever it is it has destroyed devices files and all online accounts related to that account including Firefox

I very often delete emails with attchments that have been or have not been saved. My question is what is the status of the attachment when the email is deleted. I obviously have a saved copy in memory but what happens to the attachment when I delete the email. Is it also deleted or is it still in the computer memory, if so can it be read. Advice please.

I've been using Firefox for years with absolutely no problems. Today, my wife was trying to do a search, and, instead of seeing search results she was directed to a page called FunSafe Tab, which I understand is a browser highjacked. How can I get rid or this, or am I stuck with Chrome and/or Safari?
