Something called "safe space" just showed up in my firefox browser... I didn't want it, didn't ask for it!! PLEASE tell me HOW to get rid of it.... PLEASE!!!

Moderator note: This question has been edited to remove excessive new lines.

I noticed recently, that you cannot copy and paste with the right click mouse buttons and seems to want me to use the Cntrl C and Cntrl V. Is there some way to re enable that on the mouse? It works in every other application except firefox, and I would prefer to use the mouse, as I am the most comfortable with that.

I've found out that you can create custom prompts for the AI sidebar with the configuration `browser.ml.chat.prompts.*`. Usually, this is done with the selection text. However, I'd like to pass the URL instead. I could use `%url%`, but that does not include parameters after `?` and hence does not work for Youtube.

Is there any variable that I can use to pass the full URL including parameters of the URL?

I was dismayed to discover that the latest versions of Firefox (e.g. 141 on Linux) unify the search and address bars again. There does not seem to be any easy and obvious way to change this.

On my 128 esr Linux Firefox I have an address bar that does not accept search terms and a separate search bar.

How can I get this behaviour in 141?

I am seriously concerned about the upcoming use of AI in Mozilla Firefox. The only reason I use Firefox is because it is one of the few remaining widely compatible browsers that allow me to switch off any AI features. Generative AI is needlessly wasteful and absolutely pointless. Is there any way to prevent this from being forcibly added to Firefox?

To the right of Other Bookmarks Firefox still says "finish Setup" but I've checked everything and run the setup. I can't seem to do anything to correct/clean up this?

Thank you.

1. I accidentally moved the address bar in Firefox and I cannot get it back where it belongs. This is causing me and inordinate amount of stress. It should be simple. I want the address bar back at the top. Not in the middle, and half way to the right of the screen. 2. Webpages are now displaying with "blank" space on both side of the window. 3. The bookmark bar comes and goes. In the screenshot... it has disappeared again.

Reinstalling Firefox did not help at all. Please help... this is stressing me out far more than it should.....

Thanks to the help received here and in the Reddit group I've been able to transfer almost all of my old colour and layout tweaks to a new intallation of Firefox (v133) on a new PC (running Windows 10). There's one thing that I haven't succeeded with though: I'd like to change the colour of the text in a tab when that tab becomes the active one.

This is the coding I'm using to change the tab's background colour when it's selected:

1. TabsToolbar .tab-background[selected]{

background: white !important; }

This works perfectly. But when I tried adding the line

color: black !important;

It had no effect. I'd be grateful for any thoughts. Many thanks.

Using Firefox 145.0.2, Flatpak installed via Bazzite's Bazaar store, there is no "sparkle" button in the sidebar, no options present like there are when I use Firefox on Windows.

Mozilla changed the longstanding "Copy Link Address" hotkey from "A" to "L" in Firefox 88.

They have decided to not consider reverting this change, even though "L" is far less accessible than "A" and brings it out of sync with accessibility keys across other browsers.

Reference: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1701324

Firefox broke copy link address right click context menu hotkey "A" again in Firefox 142 by adding "Ask an AI Chatbot" and this time I'm not sure I can get around it with an extension https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/link-copy/

Can this context menu option be made optional or something please?

Suddenly Firefox has begun to play bell tones for clicks with my mouse.

I am unable to disable this new behavior. It is ONLY happening with Firefox. No other browsers behave in this manner.

My PC sounds are shut off.

I never want bell tones ever at any time. Please help me discontinue this behavior as soon as possible. As someone who works with professional audio recording this is especially undesirable and disturbing.

Please. Somebody. Stop the madness.

Thanks!!

Mozilla please make a browser that has the proton/photon like firefox 89 please i need it Btw you also ruined the firefox layout floating tab what we really need is a secure browser with no bloat and open-sorsorce

More of a suggestion than a question - I've been using Firefox for 20 years because of it's focus on privacy and it's lack of pushing trendy slop options (Sloptions?). Almost everyone who uses Firefox is going to be doing so because of this - It's what it's known for and is what makes it unique compared to other search engines. What is going on with the pushing of AI? At they very least make it easy to disable it, that's the bare minimum. This is such a weird shift for the company after years of differentiating itself and with a loyal user base who are using Firefox to avoid this. Why would we be here if not because Firefox is different? Please stop pushing this kind of crap!
