I-Firefox Community Forum

Most other forums don't impose this type of limited categorization. What is the best way to proceed here when you topic here doesn't have an obvious fit? This is not uncommon. Should I be concerned that my question won't get to the right eyes/assistance needed?

Some venues offer the ability to add tags. Why not give us the ability to add "tags" if you believe some sort of pre-designation is necessary? Does that qualify for my choosing this topic?

How about "other"?

I couldn't find a place to discuss topics regarding Bugzilla itself, so I'm looking in this community. If there's a better place, please tell me.

Why the hell does Bugzilla show my private e-mail address publicly (see screenshot)? That's not normal. No other online service (like Google, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, GitHub, Microsoft, etc.) publicly shows my private e-mail address that is associated with my account. How can I disable that?

If there's actually no way to disable that, I think Bugzilla is even more trash than I already thought it is. In my opinion that's standard and it should be supported, just like on any other platform on the internet. I don't like Bugzilla because it doesn't look as clear and modern as GitHub or GitLab, has a worse text/markdown editor and it seems to be lacking some useful features. It's good that Mozilla creates some competition to big tech companies but it's also valid to criticize their products if they are simply worse (which is disappointing but nonetheless, it's true sometimes).

Hello, Microsoft Defender apparently detected a trojan, located in the folders for the Firefox extension Malwarebytes Browserguard Trojan description: Trojan:Win32/Nibtse.c!tsk

Is this a false positive?

Why do I need to post my question on a forum and wait for some random internet user to answer. Why can I not ask a question of the company when their product is not functioning properly? This is really really disappointing.

Dzień dobry, Dlaczego po zalogowaniu się do swoje poczty nie są wyświetlane ilości wiadomości np w folderze Spam, Kosz itp. A w folderach są wiadomości. Wcześniej nie było takich problemów.

Trying to log into Amazon and Firefox is request a Passkey. I selected to log in with my usually password and the passkey request will not go away...WTF Firefox this is total bs that this type of request is being even suggested when I have a password, pin and phone verification to already login.

I have Firefox set to use the built-in .pdf viewer to avoid Adobe's intrusive AI features. I have disabled Adobe's AI features in the Acrobat settings, that does not seem to apply when Firefox opens the Acrobat reader. Consequently, I have to fight off AI "suggestions" and offers of help when I simply want to read a document from the web.

So I set Firefox to use the built-in reader. After 1-2 seconds, it switched to Adobe, and brings up all the annoying AI features. How can I keep Firefox from switching to Adobe?

As a test, I renamed Acrobat.exe to AcrobatX.exe. Firefox behavior did not change. I also killed all Acrobat-related tasks in Task Manager. My document still displayed in Acrobat after 1-2 seconds, but none of the Acrobat-related tasks reappeared in the Task Manager.

I am using Firefox 145.0.2 64 bit in Windows 11 with all updates current.

Many thanks for advice.

How do I prevent any and all inline animations from autoplay? When I right-click the offending image there are options for "Play" and "Loop". I can stop the animation by unchecking "Loop" but I do not want it to play ever. I only want to see static images on a web page unless I initiate the animation.

Since update to version 145.0 I cannot send messages, when sending I get this message "Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: <*******@shaw.ca> sender rejected AUP#POL. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again". Nothing has changed with account settings. Same problem on another machine that updated to 145.0. Any ideas what is broken?

Can you allow someone to get on my computer to help me? Or do you have a phone number I can call safely to have someone go through things with me, if I need help? It stated when I put it on that is is "poor" in terms of what you did. Maybe I am doing something wrong??

Hi all,

I’m a longtime Mozilla supporter, and I really value the organization’s commitment to openness, transparency, and user-first principles. That’s why I was surprised to see that Mozilla continues to partner with AccuWeather, and I wanted to open a respectful conversation about it.

AccuWeather’s CEO, Barry Myers, has a long and well-documented history of lobbying for the privatization of weather data. Under his leadership, AccuWeather pushed for legislation like the National Weather Service Duties Act, which would have prevented the National Weather Service (NWS) from offering public forecasts if private companies like AccuWeather were already doing so. Critics including meteorologists and open-data advocates warned that this would effectively limit public access to life-saving weather information.

Myers was later nominated to head NOAA during the Trump administration, despite his deep ties to AccuWeather and multiple ethics concerns. To make matters worse, in the present day, we’re seeing reports that NOAA is being actively dismantled from within—through budget cuts, leadership changes, and political pressure that favor privatization. These efforts echo the same ideology AccuWeather has historically supported: turning essential, public-facing weather data into a for-profit model. This is especially alarming in a time of increasing climate instability, where equitable access to accurate forecasting should be a public right, not a premium service.

Given Mozilla’s dedication to transparency, public interest, and open access to information, I’m genuinely curious how this partnership with AccuWeather aligns with those values. Has this relationship been re-evaluated recently? Or are there specific factors that Mozilla considers when forming or continuing partnerships with companies whose practices may not reflect Mozilla’s core mission?

This isn’t meant to be combative—I really do want to understand the reasoning behind this decision, and whether the Mozilla community has discussed these concerns internally. I’d also welcome thoughts from other community members who may have more insight.

Thanks for reading.

I DO NOT use Google for anything, if I can help it. Every time I go to my credit union's website, the google bar showing View this page in (English, in my case) or turn off for detect language shows up. I have no idea where it came from, I haven't used Chrome in years.

I've attached a small screenshot. It's not a huge deal, but I don't like google showing up at my credit union, or anywhere else.

Any help would be appreciated.
