I was customizing my background by loading a picture. It's adult in nature. It should be my computer in my in my private home. When something amazing started happening. If I load ANY image with a naked woman on it After a few minutes Fire fox auto removes it. I have done this 30 times. I use ANY fire fox picture it's fine stays there forever. Load ANY picture with a naked woman on it and poof 2 minutes later it's gone. So please can you explain to me why whats claimed to be the most private and secure browser around is censoring me in my own home about what backgrounds I can have? I find this highly disturbing. And I am quite serious I have had them removed at least 30 times. I'm 56 y/o If I want a naked woman on my background it should be my business not fire foxes. Also no chrome is not doing it. neither is windows. It's Firefox removing them. Any explanation would be nice.

I recently installed Win 11 on a new Acer Aspire (with MSI MAG244F monitor) but the issue seems to be present on my Acer Nitro 5 with built-in monitor as well.

I don't think it's an Acer issue but I am only running Win 11 on the two Acer machines. If I open a web page with colored graphics or pictures and then drop down a menu of the browser (bookmarks, etc.) the colors of the graphics bleed through. It's annoying and somewhat obstructive. It does not occur if a window from a different app is opened on top of the browser window no matter how bright the colors are.

I attached a few edited screenshots to show the issue. The edits are only to cover personal information etc.

The issue seems to be color saturation and does not occur on my other Win 10 machines or in other browsers. Not even the same version Firefox on the Win 10 machines.

Is there a way to increase the opacity of the drop downs or lower the color saturation in the Firefox browser?

I want to hide the "Search with Google" option from the right-hand menu in Firefox. I'd appreciate it if you could tell me if there's a way to do this. I previously came across an article on how to hide Firefox using userchrome.css, but I can't find it anywhere. I don't use "Search with Google," so I want to hide it.

Google told me to go to About.Config, find "browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon" then change the value to false. But, at least in my version of FF, that doesn't work because browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon isn't listed. I'm running 142.0.01.

I know FF is trying to please all the wonderful teenagers who want to constantly screw around with software settings. But it would be really nice if such new "features" were not turned on automatically.

The bug exists since Firefox version 131.0 circa, when some things related to DPI had been changed, which I was able to guess because, without touching anything, the size/zoom of the content of the websites were slightly different (bigger). Experiencing this in both Windows and Xfce.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Have a custom DPI settings in your operating system.
  • Open a new Firefox window.
  • Note how the Firefox window height is shorter, so yo can see about 20 pixels of your desktop background. Manually resizing the window and restarting the browser has no effect: the correct height is not remembered.

I've reported this one year ago in the tracker, but no one has yet done anything about it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1925284

Am I the only person in the world using Firefox with a custom DPI setting in the OS? I find this hard to believe. Yet I'm experiencing this bug since one years ago. I can't stand using a different browser, but having to resize the window every time is so annoying...

Does anyone know how to remove the the keyboard shortcuts from Context Menus? For example: Ctrl+Shift+O beside Manage Bookmarks, or Ctrl+Shift+H by Show All History? I like having them gone so the menus can be narrower. This code worked until the latest update to FF 143: .menu-accel-container{display:none!important} thanks!

So I just noticed an odd thing today. In the URL bar there is a new icon listed as 'add to taskbar' and 'toggle reader view'. The former interests me more than the latter. I get the idea behind it, but it's not really for me. Is there a way to remove these from the URL bar? I looked in settings, but didn't see anything. So if it's not there, I'm guessing it needs to be fixed in about:config? If so, where do i look for these?

I'm including a screenshot of the icon in question.

Reverse domain name notation in omnibox / urlbar

I would be interested in modifying the behavior of Firefox's urlbar / omnibox such that domain names are displayed in “reverse notation”, e.g. org.mozilla.support instead of support.mozilla.org.

From a cursory look at Firefox's setting, I couldn't find any browser.urlbar.* setting that relates to reverse domain name notation.

I also spent some time looking at add-on development documentation. Albeit being unfamiliar with the technology, it seems to me that the omnibox permission in the manifest.json file will only grant the add-on APIs to extend the functionalities of the bar, rather than allow the add-on to modify how the bar's contents are displayed.

I would be interested to know if there might be a way to achieve reverse domain name notation that I might have missed, or whether this is impossible to do.

If this is the wrong place to ask, I'd be glad if you could suggest what forum/mailing list may be appropriate for this kind of questions.

Since the redesign a lot of thing don't work anymore.

In the menu at the right side with the dots important items e.g. bookmarks are not contained any more . How do I manage my bookmarks with the new Design? Is it possible to return to the old menu? Is there a manual explaining the new menu? The German help page online explains how it used to work.

I first noticed that things don't work anymore when I tried to download my subscribed newspaper in the app for this particular newspaper. Regards, Ute
