The quick links on the home page should be exactly for that QUICK LINKS! not for visited sites! also you only have four rows. OPERA have unlimited. To make matters worse, the stupid sites that I visited only once cannot be removed.

Title.

Keyboard focus properly defaults to the address bar for new normal windows, and new tabs both normal and private. It is ONLY in new private windows that the address bar does not auto-grab keyboard input.

The address bar is highlighted as though it SHOULD have input focus, but typing does nothing until I click in the address bar manually.

This is unfathomably annoying. I've tried fiddling with various settings in about:config, and I've tried running in troubleshoot mode to rule out extensions causing the issue. Also tried a fresh firefox profile and the issue persisted.

I recently changed to Firefox as my default web browser. I cannot prevent shortcuts from populating the browser when I visit sites. The sites add their shortcut no matter what.

I tried changing "settings > home" to not save shortcuts, which works. But even if I PIN those shortcuts I want to keep, they still get deleted. How do I fix this?

On the new tab page I have set for 4 rows of shortcuts. In the fourth row I have 3 open spaces for tiles/shortcuts. There is no way to add the tiles whereas there was previously a tile that would show that said "+add shortcut". Given I have room in the row to add 3 shortcuts, how do I add tiles to allow for added shortcuts?

Hallo, zum wiederholten Male hat sich meine Firefox Startseite verändert und meine angelegten Tabs in der Linken Spalte sind verschwunden. Ich habe die Tabs sorgfältig angelegt und wenn Sie mir diese Einstellungen nicht wieder anlegen können, dass wechsle ich meinen Browser, weil das sehr nervig ist und unangenehm!

Здравствуйте, наверное в последнем месяце у меня начались проблемы с FireFox, вот одна из них. Я нажимаю на создать новую вкладку и у меня просто белый экран, а так же есть вторая, но у меня нету скринов и описать её я смогу расплывчато: иногда смотря видео FireFox весь становится черным, а кнопки свернуть на весь экран и закрыть принимают вид как в Windows 7. Как мне это решить? FireFox мой любимый браузер и я бы хотел работать с ним в комфорте

IT HAS BECOME VERY FRUSTRATING TO USE MY HOME PAGE WITH THE LITTLE BOX FOR EACH WEB SITE I GO TO REGULARLY. IF I CLICK ON THE ONE FOR MY BANK, MULTIPLE ONES ARE APPEARING WHEN I GET OUT OF THE SITE.

I switched to Firefox yesterday, and it keeps adding some sites that I visited more than once to my shortcuts, and there is no option to disable it. I can only disable all shortcuts, and I don't wanna do that. I just wanna have MY SHORTCUTS. It's literally the most basic feature that ALL BROWSERS HAVE. WHY CAN'T I HAVE MY OWN SHORTCUTS? If there is really no way to have ONLY MY SHORTCUTS, I'm switching to Edge.

Why are there ZERO conservative viewpoints or resources in the homepage feed? Your content is narrow-minded and shows only one perspective on today's topics and headlines. Perhaps people would be more inclined to support the work if it were more balanced and expressed the views of the other 50% of America.

Why is every company from Microsoft, Google and Firefox so obsessed with changing how I have my devices set up? I do not want all the extra feed as I open the browser. Every time the browser is opened there is so many more added shortcuts to my main screen. That is super annoying when I already had in place the shortcuts I wanted. I have gone through multiple times to dismiss the ones Firefox had added to the shortcuts. But new ones just keep popping up in the shortcuts. I have also blocked all the advertisements such as sports, fit health, politics and many more that is offered that I do NOT want. It crowds up space and is VERY distracting to my homework assignments. I just started using this browser because my college recommended that I install it to my laptop because Microsoft does not support 100% of their programming requirements. I wish the settings to find this would be easier and more available to the average Joe who is not familiar when changing browser settings. Plus it switch my mouse buttons. When I have always used the Left click on the mouse to select the word that needed to be modified auto correct spelling... now it is set for the Right click of the mouse. Why does every company feel the need to completely modify other peoples stuff? Same thing with my TV connected to the WI-FI. Ads are always popping up, modifying TV preferences, moving apps around on the main screen. Every time I power up it has a new screen. Its honestly disgusting. The world around us is always changing... can our personal home lives be left alone with our preferred preferences? With out major companies thinking "Heeyyy we can make that better!" without asking from the consumer! It would be nice to have the option when powered on asking "We have a new product, would you like to try it?" allow us to select yes or no! Or just fix the old stuff that had glitches... but nah we going to keep pushing forward and annoy everyone to fill our pockets! I am NOT pleased with the product that has been recommended to me.
