password search?
I am looking for any way I can view all my passwords simultaneously. I'm searching for a particular password that may have a data breach, but aside from sorting by username or name I don't see a way to sort for passwords. Or if there was a way to click on the "show password" Icon as I scroll through the list of logins without having to click on the icon for each individual account. Safari, for example once you enter a password to "show passwords" lets you see each one as you scroll down through the logins. They also let you sort by passwords so I can group the breached passwords all together. It would help if you have a 'chat line' or a 'phone number' that I could discuss options and see if I can find a way to do this easier and faster than what I am faced with now. I hope you can help me. Thank you, Allan F.
PS From what I'm seeing am I understanding that Firefox does not have a tech support team? Only volunteer users?

That is correct. This is the official support for Mozilla Firefox. Note: Any other 'support' is not part of Mozilla. Especially if they ask for payment.
Hi,
The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers. If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox Help menu and select Submit Feedback... or use this link. Your feedback gets collected by a team of people who read it and gather data about the most common issues.
You can also file a bug report or feature request. See File a bug report or feature request for Mozilla products for details.

It used to be that everything was listed in a window altogether. Not, it only shows one entry at a time.
This might be a better option;

For example:
JSON file: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1258644
CSV: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1253828 (copy/paste from console)

chrome://passwordmgr/content/passwordManager.xhtml
In the event that the passwords information is lost, you should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else on your hard drive, or written down. You can easily copy and paste if you need to do so. If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can compress it using a password.
You can possibly export the logins to a JSON file and open this file in a suitable application.
