Hi! I know this is not very descriptive probably, so sorry for that, but a relative of mine has a new laptop with Windows 11 and often, after a while using it with normality it starts to open every link on a new window, as if shift was clicked on.

Don't know if you can activate a similar function to shift by accident or something, but it has happened a couple of times to him since he bought this laptop. I couldn't replicate this myself yet but since I have found some similar posts about Windows 11 and Firefox tabs I was wondering it this does ring a bell to you.

Thanks!

I read the newspaper on 2 tablets and phone. All are Samsung. The phone is latest s25 and tablets S5e. All the apps are up to date along with the operating systems. Picking a story to read and scrolling through it I eventually go 'back' to main page front. On Firefox this doesn't happen. The button action takes 4-6 presses, then back to main page. This occurs on all 3 devices. I tried other news websites (ABC, CBS) to replicate problem, but *did not* have this issue. Not a big deal but I think you should know.

Hello. It's a known issue already, but i will share it once again.

When i switch to a different app and then come back to Firefox, the tabs always reload and any process or pending task is lost.

That's a huge problem because it's impossible to copy and paste codes from an authenticator, fill any text to a form or simply continue watching a paused video. The tab simply reload and you lose everything.

It's very annoying because it doesn't happen to any other browser. I'm a longterm user of Firefox for many years, but this is my only complain.

Dear developers, please do something to fix this issue.

Thank you !

On Firefox browser: 1. The shield next to the URL connection is not secure 2. Googletagmanager has taken over Firefox browser app and Safari app. 3.googletagmanager blocked me from my login on Mozilla account. I had to delete Firefox browser several times but the problem is still there. I want to reinstall Firefox browser app online but it takes me to the Apple store

So when I installed Firefox for iOS (to go with my Firefox desktop browser), it always requested desktop sites. At first I thought it was just a gimmick. All browsers have one. Chrome has the gimmick of sending your info to who knows, and edge has the gimmick of being stuck on windows 11 and having an ad blocker on mobile. But it got annoying and I don’t think it’s supposed to do this. PLEASE HELP!

Can you add an option to have the menu bar on top instead of the bottom? I rather have it on top like it used to be, so I would like for there to at least be an option to change it.

I know this question has been asked many times over the years, and I'm going to be that guy who does it again.

It doesn't make sense to me that Form and Search history are combined together. They're only tangentially related, so I've been really struggling to understand why, in order to disable clearing of forms, I also have to disable my entire search history. They should be exclusive from each other.

We've moved significantly past where we were security- and extension-wise. Whatever the reason was for grouping them together may have made sense 7-10 years ago (I've seen posts that far back asking for this to be separated), but things have changed. Many people use their own solutions (1Password, Bitwarden, LastPass, etc), either because they offer better features, have a more complete package, or get personal accounts offered to them through work. One of the features I enjoy in Bitwarden is the ability to also fill out forms as well as passwords.

I'd much prefer to disable Firefox suggestions. Even though I have the password suggestions turned off, it still offers them and interferes with the Bitwarden (or 1Pass, or whatever) interface. This also happens on forms. I don't quite understand why Firefox seems to antagonize these extensions in favor of the built-in version. Users should have the option.

Of course, a lot of this can be avoided, but I'd also have to give up my search history. That simply doesn't make sense. I suspect this will again get buried like the previous posts, but alas, maybe this is the time. I'd really like Mozilla to give me a bit more control over my privacy and auto-fill options. Concede that there are extensions out there that provide better options, and accommodate them. Don't tie search history and forms together....
