I am new to firefox customization. I need help to understand, how firefox picks up CA certificates from the global ca-certificates path in ubuntu and uses them in their own cert9.db

Currently, what I am trying is, If I have a rootCA certificate (which I generated using openssl), I want to keep it in a specific path, such that when firefox launches, it picks up that certificate and uses it. How can i achieve it.

I have tried using the policies.json, which works. But are there any other ways to achieve it?

Firefox and Chrome

When I search for businesses and then want to see the phone number I have to click a ‘call’ button and that takes me to a pop up message (see attached)

With the question: ‘Allow this site to open the tel link with Firefox?’

But when I click open link it doesn’t work. So I cannot look up the business phone numbers! This only happens on Firefox and Chrome. On Safari the phone numbers show without the call button.

My main browser is Firefox.

Please help! Thank you.

When I open an email today, I need the date to show, along with the time -- the date is supressed on today's email.

I hope you don't mind if I re-ask for everyone's help.

The last time I posted this unresolved issue was July of 2016.

All I need is that on every email I open, that email will have both the date and time displayed. At present, when I open a new email received today, the date is missing (suppressed), it only shows the time. If I open an older email, say from yesterday, the date and time will display just fine.

This simple request is to always have the date showing on every email, including today's email, where the date does not display.

Rationale: I open every email the same day received (100+ per day) and none show the date. Most are responded-to and closed. Some emails are part of multi-day projects and will remain open until the project completes, perhaps several days or a week later, being repeatedly looked at for details during phone calls or portions copied to others by email --- but none show the date, which is frequently critical to prioritizing their importance. They are left on a monitor like organized post-it notes, always in view, looked at many times a day for reference against the project they are related to. The only way to get a date to show, is to wait until the next day, and close-reopen each and every email --- it's a real nuisance.

Thank you to everyone who's trying to help, It's very appreciated.

Sometimes, when I delete one email from the inbox, the inbox shows "no message found", even though there are still other emails in the inbox. The remaining emails are still in the inbox, they just don't show. If I right click on inbox in the left panel, and select "open in new tab", the remaining emails show in the new tab, just not in the main inbox. If I close out thunderbird and start it again, the emails show in the main inbox. The problem occurs occasionally, whether I select delete from the menu bar, hit the delete key, or right click on the entry and select the trash can icon.

This problem started maybe 10 or more updates ago. For each new update I think "surely it will be fixed this time".

I have included a partial screenshot of what it looks like after the problem occurs.

This problem is different than any other questions I have found in the search. It purely a visual presentation error, not disastrous, just highly annoying. Any solutions will be greatly appreciated.

There is a bug in Firefox Browser where it doesn't allow you to scroll up in the chat during the livestream and keep your place there to read a message. It auto scrolls down to the new messages everytime a new message appears in the chat.

Firefox is the ONLY browser that does this so it must be a bug. Chrome, Edge, Opera, Brave, etc none of these do this. It is especially problematic in livestreams with many viewers and an active chat, making it impossible to read a previous message if you want.

It happens on all platforms, twitch, kick, YouTube, Parti, Rumble, anything with a live chat

Why is it that when I type in part of an url in firefox search, for example "surf" when I'm wanting to visit r/surf, firefox suggests threads I viewed a single time rather than r/surf that I view multiple times per day?

You can see in chrome it behaves more like you would expect.

Sometimes plain r/surfing will be there but most of the time not, it's just random threads I viewed a single time.

There doesn't seem to be any combination of search settings that makes it suggest more frequently viewed sites
