This started today, only happening when Firefox is open, it pops up ranging from multiple times a minute to every half hour. My PC storage is fine, my Drive is fine, what other storage could it possibly be? is it some half baked update? is it malware?
Thought it is ironic
I would like to have the default "Firefox" branded new tab wallpapers on my installation, however I have a debloated Firefox that doesn't contain them. I can't find them anywhere online so I'm not sure where to look.
(Yes I know I can just reinstall Firefox, but I have limited internet so that'd suck.)
Just an appreciation post. I needed to run old mac software (literally maybe 5 years old max) and firefox was the only browser that still supported it. Screw Mac and thank you firefox!!!
I honestly can't wait for it, I just like it so much that I'm wondering when it will hit stable and be the default option (which will mean it has reached a stable enough state)
Is any information available/any ETA?
To roughly translate from French : it says to set Firefox as a default browser to unlock those icons.
Call me pessimist but that seems like a slippery slope to gatekeep more stuff behind that kind of pattern.
I've been working on a small privacy project called Retentia, and I've now brought it to Firefox.
The idea came from something that annoyed me about browser history management: the options are usually either keep everything or delete everything after X time.
I wanted something in between.
Retentia lets you give specific parts of your browsing history their own expiration date.
For example:
Before a rule actually removes anything, you can use the dry-run/simulator to see what it would affect.
One thing that was important to me from the start: Retentia doesn't need to know what you're browsing.
There are no accounts, no analytics, no cloud processing and no remote database containing your history. The retention rules and processing stay on your device.
I'm not trying to build another "privacy cleaner" that just gives you a big DELETE button. The goal is closer to having an actual retention policy for your browser history.
The Firefox version is still something I want to improve based on real-world use, so feedback is genuinely useful — especially bugs, weird Firefox-specific behaviour, or features that would make retention rules more useful.
If you're a Firefox user and give it a try, I'd be interested to hear what you think.
Retentia — your history, your retention policy.
I can't be the only one? its such a small thing but it made me so happy it was included!
Alan here, product manager responsible for extensions on Firefox. 👋
We're working on a new, highly requested, feature to prevent extensions from working on certain URLs. Basically, giving you control if you want to prevent all or some extensions from accessing your banking sites - even if you've granted it permission to access all URLs.
This is a complicated thing to build from a user experience/UI perspective, so we're looking for some volunteers to join a 30 minute video call with me and our UX designer to give feedback on this. During this call, we'd show you our mockups and ask questions/get feedback. If you're interested in signing up to help us, please sign up using this form. Please note that filling out this form doesn't guarantee an invitation — we'll reach out directly to those we're able to schedule!
Also, if this is a feature you're interested in, please go and upvote it on Mozilla Connect and add any information or potential use cases you have as to why you'd want to use a feature like this. It really helps us make sure we're building the right thing.
Thanks in advance for your help with making Firefox a better browser!
Let’s see how this unfolds! Also, the browser theme on the web pages is pretty cool.
Even with the latest update i still encounter this issue.
I watch a YouTube video @ 1440p or 1080p > I seek through the video > Quality becomes 480p or 720p.
I opened a bug long time ago and I'm pretty sure this is a Firefox issue.
