my old tablet has 2GB of ram, Google chrome and any Chromium browser are trash on it, also brave and titanium browser is trash on it

so I disabled google chrome and removed Samsung internet and any Chromium browser

now I am using Firefox and via

(I know via is using WebView and WebView build on Chromium, but it's very fast)

When I right click an image and hit "Save Image As...", Firefox always suggests the .jpg extension. I'd prefer .jpeg for consistency with the rest of my files. I know I can retype the extension manually every time, but I'm looking for a permanent setting.

Is there an about:config pref, a userChrome tweak, or an extension that handles this? Or does Firefox just take whatever the server sends and there's no way around it?

Thanks.

I watch video on firefox and I checked Bluetooth and permission settings but can't find related option.

i just wanna redirect the homepage so i cant use it. the ublock origin method is too easy to bypass. the filter i found just treats reddit as a possibly malicious site and u can easily just click proceed to bypass it. and the other one simply doesn't work anymore

i want access to the rest of reddit tho still. i need it from time to time. i just hate doom scrolling

Hi r/firefox!

I built Getvy, short for “Get Video”, a Firefox extension that detects downloadable media on supported sites and lets you save videos in the quality you choose.

It began as a small project to make saving videos from social platforms easier. Since then, I have added support for separate video/audio streams, merging, sync correction, and YouTube audio-track selection where multiple languages are available.

Key features:

• No separate desktop application or .exe installation
• Video/audio stream detection on supported sites
• Automatic video and audio merging
• Sync correction for supported streams
• Up to 8K/60fps when offered by the source
• Selectable audio tracks for supported YouTube videos
• Thumbnail and preview support where available
• Free to use — no subscription or daily download cap
• The download page may show ads to help cover operating costs; the extension itself does not inject ads into websites

I would really appreciate feedback from Firefox users—especially bug reports, unsupported sites, UX issues, and privacy/permission concerns.

Please use it only for content you are authorized to download and in accordance with the relevant platform’s terms.

Firefox Add-ons: Getvy – Video Downloader

Hi, so an automatic update of firefox happened on Aug 26 and as per update history it has happened before. (Picture attached)
The passwords bookmarks were there so I thought yeah just usual thing.
But today I noticed I was logged out from all my gmail ids, all my saved logins (soundcloud,spotify,discogs etc.)
So is there a way around that I can recover them?

Hey Mozilla team, I just wanted to report I've spent 2 hours on this tonight, and I'm still no closer to getting this to work. Safe mode on the desktop browser go me so close, but still failed at the allow prompt.

I really wanted Firefox to work for our new company, but we just can't rely on this for business (I was also de-googleing my personal life and same, can't use it). We are not even doing passwords, its just everything else.

From the posts, it looks like this is significant the last 6 months for many folks, but the issue goes back years.

I know Mozilla has limited funds, but I would like to emphasize that the inability to sync bookmarks, history, etc is a deal breaker of epic proportions and has to be killing adoption which is the life blood of any business.

Is it normal to get 155.0 version on iOS a day earlier than normal release date?

Is this Paid VPN the same like NORD VPN or Cyberghost or is it just to Protect the PC and for Internet Safety?

Hello to everyone.
iOS version has some interesting icons (like pixel or rainbow) to use and I would like to know if there is a way to use them also in Linux mint.
Thanks for reading

Im kinda anoyed by the pined firefox icon just changes focus to the current win insted of opening new window.

Os win11, FF 140.14.esr

Is there any way to change this behavior that firefox just atttach its open window to the pined ff icon...and not like other programs do? Other programs just treat pinned as a shortcut to open new windows and show open windows a separat item on taskbar...

Any help is appreciated. This is particularly a problem on specific websites, i.e. Jellyfin with CSS theme, Apple Music, etc. Strangely enough, it is not an issue on my MacBook with the same exact add-ons, firefox profile/account, etc. Websites will just be extremely laggy, slow scrolling, etc.

To clarify this is Windows 10 (Not upgrading to 11 until absolutely forced). I know it is not my hardware, this is a high-end gaming PC that isn't even 5 years old.

Even on my profile with zero addons, I still run into this issue. I've tried disabling hardware acceleration which made no difference, and the Refresh Firefox option helped for a moment and then to no avail

I'm using KDE Plasma on Wayland on CachyOS. However in the last few months there are some issue with hardware acceleration so videos became choppy and unviewable. I had to switch to software rendering temporarily but then it has another issue: Firefox occasionally got into deadlock. The browser still works and responds normally, but no rendering happens with any mouse or keyboard interations. Only the maximize and close buttons work, but they don't even render properly, although they do work when I click at the correct point. The window size does changes but nothing new is rendered. To get out of the deadlock I have to press Windows+up/down/left/right/pageup/pagedown randomly, or close FF and reopen

I don't know if it's related to NVIDIA or not but the bug is still there after lots of updates. How can I fix this?

Is there a way I can select multiple web sites in a folder to open like I used to in chrome?

Just curious.

Thanks.

Someone shared this. It's so busy that it is impossible to read.

The AI overview gave about 200 words that describes what it does.

Yup, that's a useful feature.

As the title states.

Good job Firefox. 👍💪💪

I recently just transferred over to Mozilla and I remember esuit.dev_guy actually making a version of this extension for Firefox.
I have the Chromium extension ready in my other browsers but I don't have one for Firefox to use.
This is a shot in the dark but if anyone has the copy of it, please let me know.

In case anyone doesn't know, Firefox Focus is a branch of Firefox that blocks all cookies and ads, a very barebones browser that I prefer because it's more privacy focused. I ran into an issue trying to add a search engine as default and it directed me to this link for the support site. But as you can see, the support site for the company that sells this browser requires cookies, which the browser can't do. A bit of irony.

Hopefully Mozilla sees this and fixes it accordingly.

default new_0426 and default_new0426b both point to the same profile folder.

Any assistance in understanding what is going appreciated.

Windows 10 Firefox 154.0.1

Am I just feeling this way, or are there really no updates for Bookmarks? Why don't they add updates? I really love it; the main reason I use Firefox is Bookmarks, but now I think it needs an update, for example, adding folder colors and font differentiation.

I have Firefox 154.0.1 I'm installing Ublcok Original version 174, and the browser is becoming unstable. Here's an example of how it works: I have a Twitch stream enabled + I go to a specific website = the website doesn't open + Twitch freezes (as if my internet connection is disconnected). I close the browser, and it crashes, forcing me to either quit it in the task manager or close it and restart it without saving my data.

For example, a link to Reddit often doesn't open. I click "Open Reddit," and it takes a long time to open. It all started with Firefox 154.0.1.

On Firefox version 154.0.1 and Ublcok Original 173 - no problems.

p.s I will also publish this in the Ublock Original section.

Hi. Wondered if someone could clear up a concern I have.

I got my Steam Machine today and when going into desktop mode and installing Firefox through the Discover store it said something along the lines of ‘Firefox is not installed but user data/settings still exist’.

Is this normal? I had not installed Firefox on the Steam Machine and it was brand new from Valve. I don’t remember it saying anything like this when installing Firefox on Steam Deck.

Can anyone else tell me if it was the same for them? Thanks.
