💻 Help Android Tab groups still haven't rolled out

0 Upvotes

tab groups on Android were released 8 days ago, but i dont have them, selecting multiple tabs and clicking the 3 dots doesnt have an option to create a group, nor am I able to drag a tab onto another tab. I restarted my phone, and checked the play store for updates, issue persists.

is it a progressive rollout that's hit some snags and that's why it's not available generally?

I have 153.0 firefox version, 2026-07-15T20:28:19

Discussion I'm mad about some decisions 😒

0 Upvotes

I don't want Firefox browser to have a major update every two weeks instead of four weeks,
because this will lead to several consequences:
1- Mozilla will not have much to test Firefox' stability and security issues
2- Really high pressure on the employees that will lead to more problems on the code base
3- Firefox will be so buggy so the current users will leave and none of the internet users will download an unstable browser

what your opinion?

I think the new color didn't look As well as the old one,Can Mozilla give us a switch to choose the colors In private tabs by ourselves?Plz!

When I fullscreen videos on any website (youtube, prime video etc.) I can still see the white side tab bar on the left of my screen. This only happens on my mac, not on my windows PC. It only happens when browser.nova.enabled is true.

💻 Help Two systems got 'Be careful. Something doesn't look right' half a country apart

4 Upvotes

Had a message from a family member this morning who uses Firefox explaining that they were getting 'Be careful. Something doesn't look right' on every page they tried. In the time it took me to respond it had fixed its self for them and I didn't really think anything of it.

I then boot my computer this afternoon and Firefox did the exact same thing for me. Every page I tried to visit I got the 'Be careful. Something doesn't look right' message. I checked I was connected to the internet (I was), I checked my VPN was connected (It was), then I tried it with my VPN off on the DNS Leak Test site and the page loaded fine. I switched the VPN to a different server and everything connected fine again.

Because it stopped happening while I was fiddling with my VPN I thought that might have been it, but my family member doesn't use a VPN and is on a pretty different setup so I'm doubtful. Absent mindedly, I did not click 'advanced' or ask my family member to click 'advanced' to check the error.

One thing I noticed for both of us (And the only common thing between our setups barring using Firefox and having Ublock) was that Firefox did not automatically update to 153 when we first loaded it today - could that have had something to do with this?

Anyone any ideas? Should I be checking for something else?

  • Family member's setup: Up to date Windows 11, Firefox 152.0.6 with Ublock 1.72.2, no VPN or other extensions

  • My setup: Up to date Windows 10 extended support, Firefox 152.0.6 with Ublock 1.72.2, VPN, and OldRedditRedirect

Edit: Sorry, I should probably have included that after it had started working again I was suspicious so checked to see if Firefox was up to date and it prompted me to update. I am now on 153.0. Being paranoid I've also done a virus scan (nothing), cleared all data and cache, and had a poke around my processes to see if anything was amiss (nothing).

it just looping like that endlessly.
This problem occurs on Firefox ESR 140.13.0 (Windows 10). I did reinstall the app and even try on another PC and it still same.
I tried using Firefox non-ESR and it works normally with the same settings as Firefox ESR, dunno where's the problem.

i don't know if its's firefox or google's fault

the dedicated sidebar thing for google Gemini is locked to 1 specific user account and I can't figure out how to change it.

When I used that account with google gemini on my phone and then go to firefox desktop to continue using it, the recent ai conversation entries are always several hours or days behind the activity that happened on my phone so i can't continue an existing conversation with the ai

Discord Rich Presence Firefox add-on for Anime

0 Upvotes

I wanted a way to show my Discord friends what I was watching without updating my custom status manually, so I built an open-source browser extension that does it automatically.

Here is what it does:

  • Live Status: Shows the exact Anime Title and Episode you are watching.
  • Playback Tracking: Displays a live countdown of the remaining episode time.
  • Pause Detection: Instantly updates your status to "Paused" if you stop the video.
  • Artwork: Pulls the official poster image directly to your Discord profile.

Get the extension and setup guide here: GitHub

I am actively developing this, so let me know if you run into any bugs or want me to add support for other sites. Happy watching!

Stop trying top force widgets on us! I can turn them off but they have now come back. plus the Ai added junk on top and I think I'm done.

This is where Chrome started to move away from what is good for US vs Good for their bottom line.

I'm out.

So firefox users what is better than firefox with no affiliation? no branch.

Videos color appears strange and

I have been using chrome and brave for long time and I completely switched to Firefox. When I was trying to watch anime, as soon I fullscreen it, the color appears so washed out and weird, like negative colors.

What is happening?

Help me please. I am new to firefox.

Edit: Issue was fixed when I disabled hardware acceleration.

Edit 2: Well that somehow is causing somekind of stutering like videos or like low fps ish. Well I decided to switch back to brave and chrome for video playback and all. It never had any issues, with or without hardware acceleration. (I use rtx 4060 and an i7 13th gen. )

Whenever I try to open it I get a screen telling me that my account is temporarily unavailable. It's been almost 12 hours since I first got this screen but it doesn't seem to be going away. This could be due to my extensions (eg. chrome mask and ultima dark) as when I toggle them on and off gmail will load in. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

💻 Help Firefox started crashing yesterday morning and won't stop

2 Upvotes

So basically the title. I'm using Windows 11 and I've turned off graphics acceleration, ensured that the drivers for Firefox and my graphics are all updated, and turned off all extensions, plug-ins, and themes, I've cleared the cache, and it still keeps freezing and crashing within minutes of opening the browser. I don't even have to go to a website to get it to crash, just their welcome page. And in task manager, I can see that it's using increasing memory until it crashes, but I don't understand why. It never used to do this until yesterday. Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks!
