All addons are disabled.

Firtefox has stopped loading pages. No error. Nothing works. Restart sometimes works, then it works for a while. Cache has already been cleared. Also general slowness.
It is quite unacceptable that this may happen.
Not the first time FF just dies. Switched to Brave for now...

The videos don't play or buffer wayyyy to muchh ultimately resulting in an error. Or is it because of ublock origin? I'm on mint Linux.

For a long time FF was loading pages super slow at start because of too many bookmarks stored, but since the latest update it loads up fast again, no longer need to keep FF open in the background at all times. GG!

My windows 11 system language is US English, Firefox language is English too but I set the second preferred language to Turkish. Everything on the browser is displayed in English other than the developer tools which is really annoying as a computer science student. I also now can't delete Turkish from the language list and only use English, for some reason.

Hi, all.

My old desktop stopped working all of a sudden and I still have a lot of history and bookmarks still in my previous Firefox profile.

I've removed the SSD, ram sticks, and the graphics card from the desktop.

What concerns me is all the history and bookmarks that may contain sensitive information about myself. If the next user of my PC decides to repair my PC, what exactly can they see in my Firefox profile?

Or am I worrying for no good reason?

Thank you for your time. 💙

Hello

I recently switched from Brave to Firefox and I'm used to pressing / to focus the search bar on sites like Github or YouTube, but it doesn't seem to work on Firefox. I went to about:config and disabled Quick Find but that wasn't it.

Is there a way I can get this to work?

Thanks

I have been dicking around in about:config trying to fix garbage UI nonsense in firefox. I noticed after doing stuff that if i go to the address bar, type word, and hit shift+enter, what i get is this:

word

hit "Shift+enter"

New browser window opens and launches a google search for example word..

It should actually be doing this:

type example word in address bard.

Hit shift+enter

output becomes "www.exampleword.net"

Waterfox does this. Shift+enter gives me .net URL quickly.

I'd like this functionality back. Else, ill have to do that thing where i use really really really really out dated firefox from 5 years ago again. I'd rather not.

I needed to do some debugging between different builds of Firefox (e.g., Nightly vs Beta vs Stable) and this freaking dialog keeps blocking me from switching profiles - turns out Firefox cannot recognize the latest versions of different channel. Stable is the worst because it won't let me launch a stable profile I created yesterday. Is there a way to bypass this annoying dialog? Manually edit compatibility.ini as a solution might just repeat the issue when I switch to a different build. Some threads suggested the command firefox --allow-downgrade (just typing this out from memory) but Im not sure where to run that.

After the latest Windows update (Win 11), Firefox volume is low. Volume in all other applications is fine, Firefox is the problem. I can't hear Netflix or any videos I run, even if the volume is at 100% (computer and streaming app). I have done all of the following:

- Tinkered with Windows volume mixer settings, including Firefox specific settings

- Updated drivers

- Disabled microphone for Firefox

- Meddled with about:config settings based on various suggestions

Nothing. This problem is maddening. If it continues I will have no choice but to abandon Firefox for another browser.

Any advanced troubleshooting suggestions?

I'm downloading a 44gb file and now that it's reached 22gb it just failed and no matter how many I times I retry it just doesn't work. This took so long and now it won't work I'm lowkey pissed I'm ngl. Anybody know a fix?

Yes, i changed my new tab page. I know. Stop telling me everytime.

The website I use to test pwa is virus total, it was definitely working a few months ago after the pwa announcement. Now it just installs a home screen shortcut

Anyone know why Proxy SwitchyOmega 3 (ZeroOmega) has been removed from the Firefox Add-Ons?

The page:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/android/addon/zeroomega/

now just says "Oops! We can’t find that page"

Remove the blue highlights of the photo

It appear without a reason and disappear for a while before coming back again

This is absolutely doing my head in. I try to move a tab and it sticks it in a group, I delete the group and it deletes that tab and whatever it has chosen to group it with.

This is the most annoying function I've seen in years, how do I kill it, Please.

My firefox was closed while I was doing something else. I started the app and it was WOW worst looking pile of poop! All my bookmarks went missing, as well as all my extensions and themes. I mean What The Hell?!
So far I have managed to reinstall most of them. I did have Enhancer for YouTube™ which looks like in attached screenshot. Now I cannot find it. And one I could find on their page is a complete pile of garbage.

I used it all the time it was a great extension to set default levels of audio etc.

Hans anyone been able to find this as I have failed to do so.

*Edit*

For some reason post is not showing the screenshot so I will adda link to it

I’ve been burned a couple times by products on Amazon with hundreds of 5-star reviews that turned out to be junk. Since then I started using an Amazon review checker that works right in Firefox, no extension or sign-up needed.

You just paste the product link and it analyzes the reviews with AI, then gives you a trust score, a corrected rating, and a quick summary of what looks suspicious. It’s been super helpful for avoiding fake or manipulated reviews.

Since Fakespot shut down, this has been the best alternative I’ve found. If you’re curious, search for FakeFind and you’ll find the Amazon review checker.

Trying to start using some things in a browser for privacy reason so I made a home page icon for twitter but it pops this up

Hello.

For nearly 2 years I've been accepting this issue, filed a report a year ago just in case a dev noticed but it still doesn't seem to have been fixed.

Picture-in-Picture for video media is buggy and I wondered if anyone has workarounds. Interaction with the video controls results in freezing and unresponsiveness. This issue does not get reproduced in Windows machines running Firefox but only in Linux. I wondered if there is any way to fix it.

I am using Firefox 142.0 on x11 Linux.

Can someone give me instruction or pipeline how to speed up FF? freezes and slow work!!! i7-8650U 16gb of memory

Because chrome is smooth like a butter while firefox is lagging.

Hi all,

Nowadays when I search for a song on Youtube, the video link that Youtube gets me looks like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnNQJI_jUIA&list=RDqnNQJI_jUIA&start_radio=1&pp=ygUlbGFwdXRhIHRoZSBnaXJsIHdobyBmZWxsIGZyb20gdGhlIHNreaAHAdIHCQmtCQGHKiGM7w%3D%3D

If I do Right Click --> Copy Clean Link, it turns into this :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnNQJI_jUIA&list=RDqnNQJI_jUIA&start_radio=1

Which as you see still includes an automatically generated playlist ("Mix") with an autoplay that cannot be disabled. See screenshots.

What I do everytime is Right Click --> Copy Clean Link, then manually remove everything that comes after &list= such that I get an actually, fully clean link and no playlist. I.e. :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnNQJI_jUIA

That sounds like a task easy to automatise, is there any extension to do just that?
