Hi Mozilla Community,

With the rapid growth of local AI, I am interested in how we can better utilize local models—specifically via tools like Ollama or LM Studio—within the Mozilla ecosystem.

Given Mozilla's core commitment to privacy and user agency, using local LLMs seems like a perfect fit for:

Privacy-preserving browser assistants: Using Firefox extensions to interact with local endpoints (e.g., localhost:11434 for Ollama). Local content analysis: Summarizing or analyzing web pages without sending sensitive data to third-party cloud providers. WebGPU research: Exploring how local inference can be integrated more deeply into the browser experience. Are there any ongoing projects or planned features that would allow users to connect their local AI endpoints to Firefox? Or is there a recommended community-driven way to implement this via extensions?

I would love to hear your thoughts on this direction.

A new Facebook link can open Firefox and work, but subsequent Facebook links result in a failure. The error message is "This content isn't available right now When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted."

The Facebook links work with other browsers.

Restarting Firefox begins the cycle again. This has become a problem just in the last month or so.

Hi, ok, so my computer just randomly updated my Firefox Browser and now all of my bookmarks, saved passwords, extensions, themes, and history is gone. I used the links on the support website, but they were not helpful at all. I am logged in with the same account I was originally logged in with prior to update 149.0 (logged in with gmail). When I sync data in settings, it automatically imports my Safari and Chrome information (which is not what I want). I try to import my bookmark and password history from the saved HTML and CSV files under Mozilla Firefox, but I don't have the ability to do so, as the files are essentially 'greyed' out. I have tried every step to troubleshoot and every link that is related to my issue listed on Mozilla's support with no success. I have even searched my issue on Google and Reddit. Please help!!

Lately, on certain websites, like Fox News - I open a tab in a new link and it just spins.

Today, I just tried to register an account with a glass company, and I hit the button to register, and nothing happened.

Yesterday on a different site, I went to place an order, and everything grayed out and it just stayed like that.

What do I need to adjust in order for this to stop happening?

Thanks! Shari Blauner

How to get Firefox Extensions into the menubar

I seem to have been using Firefox for so long, that I’ve forgotten some of the basics. I have two Apple systems. An M1, 2020 MacBook Pro and an Intel Mac Mini. Due to issues with the MacBook Pro I needed to reformat it and am slowly adding all my applications. When I added Firefox, logged in and entered the confirmation code and synced my settings none of my extensions appeared in the menu bar (please see the screenshot as to how they appear on the Mac Mini). So the question I have is what do I need to do to get them there on the MacBook Pro.

I've been using MAC (multi-account containers) for a few months. Awesome feature, especially useful for logging into multiple email accounts in the same tenant (M365, GW, etc). In the recent past, if I had an issue with a particular login, I could go to the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension button on the top bar, click on it...then Manage Containers, select the container to manage, there was a set of options, one of them being "Clear Cookies and Site Data" (or similarly worded). That would clear the data for that MAC which would resolve my issue. Now. that option is no longer shown when clicking the Manage Containers button. I've included a snapshot of what is shown now.

The ability to clear the data for that particular MAC is invaluable. How can I get that back?

MacOS (26.3.1 a). Firefox 150.0 (aarch64)

P.S. I just found the "Report" option on the extension itself in the Extension settings. I will post this message there as well.

I've spent a lot of time doing all this, to no avail. If I change browser I don't have the problem. I've been using Mozilla browser since before Firefox was invented and never had a problem before. You've changed something in your latest upgrade which has caused this problem.

I don't know which question best describes my question. I have always used Firefox because it had two boxes for searching. This meant that you could type a search into the second box while keeping the first box open. Now that second url box is gone. How can I get it back? I used it all the time!
