I-Firefox Community Forum

I can't delete some websites from advanced tracking protection, I type in a website but it doesn't add it to the list. One site is mail.proton.me. Even the ones that are added still don't load when I open Firefox, they are telling me I have connectivity issues. This has only started happening since the last updat. Everything work perfectly on Chrome! What is the point of having tabs and pinning them if you have to open them manually every time you log on?

Pages of text but I don't understand what the [expletive] you are doing or why! It's incoherent! Don't tell me what to do without telling me HOW to do it! We customers are not all software engineers. Unfortunately the software engineers who write everything I've been reading haven't learned that. I constantly read stuff that use terminology that is not self-explanatory. Then I'm asked to make a decision that is so badly defined that I have no idea what I'm deciding! SPEAK PLAIN ENGLISH!!!!! Don't ask me to choose among a list of options that YOU have defined, but none of which have any relationship to what I need to know. The "which topic" box just above this one is a perfect example. It took me a long time to even find this opportunity to speak to you! Choosing between incoherent options does not advance clarity for me or knowledge for you. Just stop using computer lingo and speak in a manner that would be understood by a 9 year old, or in my case, a 79 year old retired mechanical engineer. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to actually vent my frustration at what I run into on a daily basis, not just with Mozilla. Tom Riddering, [email address]

P.S. This whole incoherent mess this evening started when I tried to authorize McAfee to protect me from trackers, just exactly what that means I'm not sure, but it sounds bad. It's not at all clear just what would be tracked, who would bother tracking me, and why I need protecting. My life is so utterly boring.

Hello, I manage a healthcare education website (https://thelabon.com/contact-us/) and I'm focused on optimizing privacy and performance for users accessing our medical content through Firefox. Currently I have not embedded it yet I am using only an image of the map instead. What are the recommended Firefox settings, extensions, or practices to ensure user privacy, especially when embedding external tools like Google Maps or analytics services? Any guidance would be appreciated!

Generative AI relies on the blatant and flagrant violation of user privacy to train its own language models and supply users with its own stolen, bastardized input. It slows down the browser its built into with no benefit, forcing its users to jump through ridiculous hoops and workarounds to disable its resource-gobbling features. If we wanted this, we would swap to browsers like Chrome, Edge, or Opera. If this snake-oil abomination that dares to proclaim itself some sort of advanced "technology" continues to be enforced on us, I, and many others, will simply opt for a different browser that does not enforce this abomination upon its users; of which there are plenty.

There is a site for the california l and It suddenly won't function right. iInstead I get a banner telling me that GPC has been enabled. How can I get things workng properly again.

recently the protections dashboard is not showing the same information as before, with much lower numbers of blocked trackers. why is that? color of bars is different also.

I don't know how to give permission for third party cookies. I'm completely lost. https://pennstate.service-now.com/sp?id=kb_a

Firefox is supposed to be replacing copy without site tracking with copy clean link however the new Firefox download has copy clean Link greyed out!!

I will continue to dismiss the update until there's no longer an option for me to do so at which time I will just give up using Firefox and try using a different browser.

I'm having to use a back up computer. I opened FireFox and I have no tab bar and no way to open tabs. I have this incredibly annoying sidebar that I was at least able to move to the right. But I can't make it horizontal or clear it. I need the sidebar gone and my tab bar back.

If I right click the sidebar, I do not get an option to get rid of it.

I have checked settings repeatedly. I have even attempted to add a button at the upper right to open tabs. It goes to the sidebar with no labels and no way to clear. It's maddening.

Security misconfiguration website will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it.......appears after click on the site. How do I clear or correct this for access?
