Where does FireFox save information such as context menus; for example when right clicking on tab ?

When I select a line of text, normally it would get deleted/overwritten when typing a new line of text, but when I select text in Firefox and begin typing again, it simply deletes the first word in the selection and keeps the rest. Is there a setting to have ALL text selected deleted/overwritten when new text is entered? Selecting one word overwrites the whole word but when an entire line to be deleted is selected, only the first word is deleted and typing begins where that word ends.

I only use Firefox to play two browser games that both use the 1-5 keys as an alternative to clicking the mouse. Accidentally clicking Ctrl and switching tabs out of nowhere is becoming a really annoying problem, but I don't see any way to just turn off shortcuts and hotkeys like other the other browsers I use. Is there any way to do this? Even a specific extension that makes the Crtl button do nothing would help, the one I was recommended won't download due to a "corruption".
Hi ! Why is the option to open the last firefox session not available anymore ? I use it very often cause its usefull.

It was nice when FF was simple to use....unimcumbered with all the options...like the latest...profiles.
Why? It's getting to be as complicated as E and C..you don't need all those options - that's why I use FF.
Get rid, or allow the user, to pick and choose, and dump the unwanted stuff from cluttering the tool bar and other options. Just a suggestion that can be made to FF any longer. Use to be they'd welcome feedback.

This might be quite "old man yells at cloud" of me, but oh my god I am so fed up of everything putting AI in as a "feature" for no reason.
1) No one asked for this. 2) It is bad at doing whatever it is designed to do. (It's not helpful, it's not even neutrally unhelpful, it's ANTI-HELPFUL.) 3) It is always on by default, or worse, impossible to turn off.
At the very least AI features need to be off by default, because it's rubbish.
Firefox is meant to be a bastion of sanity and safety in a world of exploitative techbros trying to steal our data and trick us into making money for them. So-called "AI" goes against this. Please, Firefox, be better.
As of 20th Nov 2025, here's how to turn off AI features. Go into about:config and set all of these to false (yes, you’ll have to copy and paste them one by one):
in addition to nuking AI, it’ll also speed up your browsing

zen_browser has this feature which I use multiple times per day every day: keyboard shortcut ´shift+cmd+c`to copy current URL to clipboard.
This is such a useful feature. It helps me save time and speed up my workflows a lot, so much that it's absence in Firefox is preventing me from going back to Firefox.
The feature was implemented in v1.6b back in early 2025 in zen_browser.

Every time I boot up my computer firefox spams all of my previously opened tabs on my main screen. Due to the nature of my work, many of these windows are irrelevant to my work the following day. The only setting I can find to disable this behavior is already toggled off. Is this a bug? It's becoming really frustrating to close a billion windows every day when I come in to work.
I'm using the firefox instance packed in with Fedora, I believe it's a system package, not a flatpak.

The last update (which was VERY rocky... I had to reinstall and functionality has NOT been great since) eliminated the Bookmarks icon from the top ribbon. I've looked through settings, but find no way to restore it. Can it be restored? I now have to click the menu, Settings, and THEN Bookmarks.

Is there a way to turn off the “shake for AI summary” function on IOS? It doesn’t add anything to my experience, and more often than not, I end up accidentally shaking my phone and getting a summary I didn’t ask for.
If there’s a way to completely turn off the AI features, i’d like that too I’d prefer if my browser didn’t summarize the websites I visit in a way that can be inaccurate or lie to me.
Mozilla, please just remove these features entirely. If we want AI, we can go to ChatGPT or another website, I just don’t want it added into everything I use all of a sudden.
Thanks in advance for any help. :)

the only reason ive been using firefox is because its one of the few browsers that doesnt use AI. now this? anthony enzor-demeo what in the hell is wrong with you? no one wants this, stop pushing AI in a browser we all use SPECIFICALLY to avoid other browsers' (like chrome) sell out. i dont care if there's opt out I don't want this to be an option in the first place, and I know a lot of others feel the same.
i am not the kind of person who has brand loyalty, and if you continue with this I'll find something else to use.
