Dear Mozilla Firefox Team,

My name is Bohdan, and I am an active user of your browser. I greatly appreciate the efforts of your team in developing such a convenient and secure product. I would like to express my gratitude for the excellent work on Firefox and would like to propose a few ideas that I believe could enhance the user experience.

   Selective Tab Removal Feature
   Often, when working with a large number of tabs, there's a need to close only some of them. It would be very useful if there were a feature that allows users to select multiple tabs and close them simultaneously. This would significantly simplify the organization of work with tabs and allow users to manage open pages more effectively.
   Adding Ukrainian Language to the Page Translation Tool
   For Ukrainian users, it is important to have the ability to translate web pages into Ukrainian directly in the browser. Given the significant number of Ukrainian-speaking users, this would be a very important and helpful addition. I hope that such an option will be implemented in future updates.

I would be very grateful if you could consider these suggestions for inclusion in future updates. I believe these changes would be useful for many users and would enhance their experience with Firefox.

Sincerely, Bohdan bogdanserg48@gmail.com

Hi, I download some e-mails. After checking the emails, I want all of them to be deleted from thunderbird but... ...I want only specified emails deleted from server.

In Mac's "Mail" program, there was a special window, where I could see all e-mails on server and just select which I want to remove from server.

In old Outlook, I've used "Rules". There I could set the parameters for specified e-mails and then tell outlook to "leave that message on server" or "Don't download that message from server".

Being fairly new to Thunderbird I'm still exploring the possibilities. I know I can display only unread messages in a particular folder by using the Quick Filter / Show only... option, but is it possible to set up a more direct method which requires only one click and is permanently displayed as an option?

Many thanks.

When Firefox loads a web site such as TicTok.com, the site instantly plays the very first video that loads. Now this sure sounds like there would be a very simple solution for this problem and the solution should be built right into Firefox's settings... right? Let's see here...

Settings\Privacy & Security\Permissions\Autoplay {pop-up window} Default for all sites: [Allow Audio and Video]

                                   Block Audio
                                   Block Audio and Video

Website Listbox: Status: about:welcome^privateBrowsingId=1 [Allow Audio and Video] about:welcome [Allow Audio and Video]

   *the two dropdownboxes in this list have the same options as the 'all sites' dropdownbox.

So with these settings I certainly can block every website from autoplaying any audio or I can block every website from autoplaying any audio AND video. However these settings do not provide a "Block Video" only option. Why would anyone want that? Well because of the way sites like TicTok actually behave when Block Audio and Video is set. When Block Audio and Video is set, the user will have to press play on the video AND then press unmute. The user should be able to prevent the video playback when the website loads, and when the user presses play the audio should just start working without need for pressing unmute. This however, is only annoyance issue.

There is a real functionality issue as well. When looking at the Website Listbox, this component is essentially useless. The developers didn't even need to include the two "about:welcome" entries. They won't ever do anything unless Mozilla decides to add Audio/video to their welcome page (probably not happening). So the user can safely delete those two entries, but here is where it gets interesting. Once deleted, the user can not put them back. In fact, the user cannot enter ANYTHING into this listbox (why?). The only thing we can do is Remove All Websites.

What does this mean for the user? It means that I am relegated to either simply dealing with obnoxious websites and their autoplayed videos. Or I can set it so every website is blocked from autoplaying Audio and Video, but if I do that then I will have to unmute videos before clicking play. The presence of the Website Listbox sure does suggest that the user should be able to add websites, thereby creating a customized list of sites which should or shouldn't have autoplay permissions. To be quite honest, this part of Firefox seems incomplete and I hope it will see some attention soon.

I am an longtime user but not a freak in using the system. I have the feeling that ISPs have difficulty in implementing good standards, but Thunderbird as well. I had a sequence of issues and failures and had to repair them by continuously changing settings and now it becomes virtually inoperable. I do not want to spend time in solving all these issues, if expert fora suggests pieces of python code as solution I have to conclude that the system does not work any more. One other problem TB changes apparently so much its own menu structure that that is also not working any more. And solutions given cannot be implemented. Sorry to say, this is immature freaky programming, you need some serious system engineers and managers to repair the chaos. Google and ISPs will anyhow continue with their own interest so Thunderbird should be robust against the outside inconsistencies. My complaint is both for the calender as the mail handling. Sorry to say, I am willing to pay that you could hire good programmers, but the volunteers with proper guiding are possibly better qualified. I hope you can solve the issues - changing fully to another environment implies reorganising my work environment.

Hoping you can recover, success, Lars Venema

Firefox version 132.0.1 Thunderbird version 128.4.0esr O/S: PCLinuxOS Debian Edition (Debian 12 Bookworm) with KDE 5

I am getting a "Click" sound effect when I click Menu Bar items in both Firefox and Thunderbird, Bookmarks in Firefox, Folders in Thunderbird and some other items in both. I can not find a way to turn it off. It does not happen in any other applications, including other web browsers that are forked from Firefox, so I think it is a Mozilla problem.

This is a relatively new installation that was set up copying settings from Firefox on Windows 10 using Firefox Sync. I did not copy anything from Windows Thunderbird because my email is IMAP which brings in everything from the server. I am not getting this clicking sound in Windows Firefox and Thunderbird.

I am GUESSING that the sound effect is due to an Accessibility setting that is buried somewhere, maybe in one of the text-based "about...." configuration files, but I don't know where to look. I have gone through the Linux KDE System Settings and the Settings in Firefox and Thunderbird several times trying to find it. I will note that I set up Firefox and Thunderbird in the same Linux distro on a laptop also using Firefox Sync and do not have this problem with the laptop. Can anyone tell me where to look to get rid of this irritating noise?

Thank You!
