Hi All,

I have tried the new free browser VPN however it does not load pages if I am using a custom DNS (Quad9) and have DNS over HTTPS enabled. Is this expected behaviour and just a limitation of the VPN?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

I recently saw something about the new VPN when my browser updated. I did not have time to figure it out, so I am pretty sure I remember clicking a button that said "no." Now I am trying to find out how to set up the VPN, but I cannot find the VPN button. I know you are rolling it out gradually to users, but if I had not received it why would I have seen a message when my browser first reopened after the update? I have looked up your "help" pages and it says if you click "no thanks" twice the button will disappear but you can add it back by customizing the toolbar. I have opened the "customize toolbar" tool, but I still don't see the VPN button. Did I have it and lose it? How can I get it back?

Is there something I can do in about:config? I looked there for VPN settings and there were some listings for VPN but I didn't see anything that was obvious to change.

Here is a screenshot of what I found in the "help" section, which did not help me:

I am using Firefox 149.0 (64-bit) with Yahoo.Com as my home page. All of a sudden, when I use the search bar at the top of the Yahoo Home Page, Firefox opens up a blank tab in response. Doesn't matter what I search for, same thing happens. Then, if I close that blank/empty tab and reattempt the same exact search again, it works fine.

This has been happening only for the past few days - was fine before. Is this Firefox? Or is this Yahoo? And how can I resolve the issue?

Thanks in advance.

I've just opened one simple Web site (in addition to Mozilla), and already CPU usage sits at about 20%! Please refer to my recent posts here at "Why is Firefox Suddenly Taking Over my CPU?" for the problem description. I'm re-posting simply in hopes that I can "send data" on this one from outside my sandbox. Regards -- jclarkw

Please see attached. Netflix will not work. Never had a problem with any other videos so far using this amazing browser. Can we please get a possible update timeline for this - if possible at all?

thanks

I have noticed that since around Friday, April 24th, 2026, that Youtube videos will sometimes refuse to load properly. The page for the video will come up, but buttons on the page will not load, and nor will the video. This started happening around mid-day, when prior to it, things had been fine. At first I thought it might be tied into the 'ambient mode' option on Youtube itself., But even after shutting that off, I found it was still happening at ranodm.

Is this something new Yotube is doing in their continued (idiotic) fight against ad blockers, or is there an actual glitch in the browser or, more likely, a glitch in Youtube? Like I said, this seems to occur at random and I can't trace the cause for it. I'll include a screenshot of what I'm seeing. But if anyone knows what's happening here, I'd appreciate it.

I should add that I am on Windows 11 and using the new version 150.0 for Firefox. (Congrats on that, by the way.)

I'll be honest, I keep hearing some other browser can block youtube ads innately. (Brave, I think it was called?) and while the idea is cool, I'm not giving up a browser I've used for over 20 years for it. If Firefox can find a way to implement a similar means of blocking Youtube ads innately, I;d love it. But for now, I just wanna know what the devil is happening with the site. Can anyone help?

I'm fed up of all the problems i'm having with Mozilla. i already uninstalled once. i will do it again if you do not allow me to use dashlane and keep putting obstacles in the way. I've been loyal for 10+ years but getting really fed up.

I am using firefox on linux since ~10 years. Currently running latest FF on Kubuntu. I always had setting set to forget all cookies and session details except of search history on exit.

Since approx 2-3 weeks (latest update?) those settings don't work. FF remembers everything regardless of settings I chose.

Does anyone have idea why this is happening now and how to fix it?

The Firefox Color extension (which says "Official extension built by Mozilla.") has made it so that when I right click a link and select bookmark link, the menu for choosing which folder to place the bookmark is forced to be dark mode. Due to how few sites I use dark mode on, this sudden reversal of colors makes it hard to read. I tried changing every setting to blue but none of them seemed to effect it. I couldn't find anywhere on the extension page to ask about this without leaving a review so I found my way here. How do I fix this, and if I can't, when is it going to be fixed?

Since updating to version 150 (and 150.0.01) my title bar is missing. Sure, I CAN get it back with F11 (2 times) but it is annoying to have to do that every single time I start FF.

There is no longe an option (to checkmark or remove checkmark) in the right-click menu to show the title bar. (it used to be an option) I want the option to have it there permanently, or not. It should be up to me, not some dev somewhere that does not like it.

after working in firefox for a while and using a number of windows and the I close firefox with multiple windows open in my session. if i open it again and keep doing this for a while and then have closed firefox, eventually I can no longer open a firefox window and get a message the I have too many windows opn and can't open more till i close the open windows. i hover over the firefox app and all the previously closed windows are stacked up. why didn;t they close when i exited my firefox sessions. why are they still there and clogging up the system?
