Hello Mozilla Support,

I'm experiencing an issue with how Firefox displays date and time input fields on websites when using Hebrew (Israel).

• • Environment:**

- Firefox version: 158.0 (64-bit) - Operating system: Windows - Browser interface language: Hebrew - Regional locale: he-IL

• • The problem:**

Date fields are displayed in the format YYYY.MM.DD (for example, 2026.10.14) instead of DD/MM/YYYY (14/10/2026).

Time fields also sometimes display their components in an incorrect order, apparently due to right-to-left (RTL) handling.

This issue occurs across multiple websites, including the standard HTML date input example on MDN, so it is not specific to any particular website.

• • Troubleshooting already performed:**

1. Verified Windows regional settings: Hebrew (Israel), short date format dd/MM/yyyy, and time format HH:mm. 2. Verified Firefox regional preferences show he-IL. 3. Tested intl.regional_prefs.use_os_locales with both true and false. 4. Tested intl.locale.requested with he,en-US, he-IL,en-US, and he-IL. 5. Changed the preferred website language order to prioritize he-IL. 6. Restarted Firefox after making changes.

Unfortunately, the date issue persists, and the time field display is also inconsistent.

• • Expected behavior:**

Date fields should display DD/MM/YYYY, and time fields should display HH:mm in the correct visual order, while keeping the Firefox interface in Hebrew.

Could you please confirm whether this is a known Firefox bug and whether there is a supported workaround or a planned fix?

Thank you.

I frequently use textareas to edit text files on a server. Often, after saving the form, I discover a need for further editing, like a misspelling or something omitted, Previous FF versions, after hitting the back button, placed the cursor where I last edited. Now version 158 puts the cursor at the top, requiring a search for the mistake, like Chrome (another reason not to use it). Bug or feature? Is there some workaround or will I have to revert to version 157?

YouTube videos are frequently buffering and sometimes play slowly in Firefox, even when my internet connection seems to be working normally. Please help me identify the cause and suggest steps to fix the problem. I would also like to know whether any Firefox settings, extensions, cache, or hardware-acceleration settings could be causing this issue.

Dear Mozilla VPN Team, I hope you're doing well.

I'm writing to ask whether Mozilla could offer a discounted subscription or a customized plan to accommodate my financial circumstances.

I'm an English language teacher based in the Middle East, where severe internet restrictions and filtering make a reliable VPN essential to my work. Of all the services I've tried, Mozilla VPN is the only one that has consistently provided the reliable connection I need to teach my students without frequent disconnections.

My work involves interactive online classes, streaming educational materials, and sharing learning resources, so I estimate that I need approximately 150 GB of bandwidth per month.

Unfortunately, my monthly income is only around $100, and $3 per month is the absolute maximum I can currently afford for a VPN subscription without compromising my basic living expenses.

I genuinely value Mozilla's commitment to privacy and an open internet. I'm willing to upgrade to a regular subscription and pay the standard price as soon as my financial situation improves. For now, however, reliable VPN access is essential to my ability to teach, earn a living, and improve my circumstances.

I'd be extremely grateful if you could consider my situation and let me know whether any hardship discounts, educational pricing, financial assistance programs, or alternative subscription options might be available.

Thank you for your time and consideration, and for your continued work toward making the internet more accessible and private.

Warm regards, Amir

Når jeg bruger Mit ID i Firefox på min MacBook - så vises QR koden ikke, den vises korrekt i Safari og Chrome, men ikke i Safari? Jeg har forsøgt alt muligt uden held... nogen som har en løsning?

Why does Rakuten.com claim cookies are not enabled? It works fine on Chrome. I have set my cookies to Standard and cleared all cookies data.

I just signed up for the annual VPN coverage. I've signed in and have selected an area of the world to have my ip address associated. However, I now am in a loop.

I click the VPN logo on the top right of Firefox, I'm told to "Get started" by logging in.

I click "get started" and am told I've successfully already logged in.

I'm then told to click the "Turn VPN on" switch at the VPN logo.

I click the VPN logo and am told to log on, again. And again and again...

I've restared Firefox. I've restarted my Mac. Same thing again and again

Help?
