If an URL already have many tags or longish tags I can no longer see suggested tags when starting to type tags. Image example illustrates. This URL already have the following tag list:

1942, Air_Ministry, boost, cruise, memorandum, MP, rpm, Spitfire, Spitfire_MkIX, Spitfire_MkV, Spitfire_MkVI

Old behavior was if started to type ", spi" it would list suggestions:

Spitfire Spitfire_MkIX Spitfire_MkV Spitfire_MkVI

Easy & clear to select from.

Now it lists all already existing tags before each suggestion:

1942, Air_Ministry, boost, cruise, memorandum, MP, rpm, Spitfire, Spitfire_MkIX, Spitfire_MkV, Spitfire_MkVI,Spitfire 1942, Air_Ministry, boost, cruise, memorandum, MP, rpm, Spitfire, Spitfire_MkIX, Spitfire_MkV, Spitfire_MkVI, Spitfire_MkIX 1942, Air_Ministry, boost, cruise, memorandum, MP, rpm, Spitfire, Spitfire_MkIX, Spitfire_MkV, Spitfire_MkVI,Spitfire_MkV 1942, Air_Ministry, boost, cruise, memorandum, MP, rpm, Spitfire, Spitfire_MkIX, Spitfire_MkV, Spitfire_MkVI, Spitfire_MkVI

Suggestions are scrolled right invisible outside the input box.

Who thought this was a good new feature? It adds nothing, I can already see existing tags, why would I want to see them repeated for each new suggested tag (while not actually seeing the suggested new tag)?

How can I turn this *!$&@! off and return to old behavior?

Hi. I recently opened Firefox for Android on my Samsung A53 phone to find the keyboard layout had changed. Please see image attached. I do not wish to use this layout. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but this had no effect. I have also cleared the cache and deleted all data. None of these things have solved the issue. I would be very grateful if you could advise me how to use the Samsung system default keyboard with Firefox. Many thanks.

Approximately 2 years back, for a short period of time, FireFox let you choose an audio output device in video conferencing web apps, through the web app directly.

This seems to be gone now, but I'd like to turn the feature back on.

It's very problematic to have to change your default audio device for video calls, as your computers sound effects and whatnot will also play in your headset as well, where as before, all you got was the audio from the video call in your headset.

Is there a way to turn this on again? Owl Practice (one of the VC web apps I use) still shows the different output devices, but regardless of which one you pick, it always comes out the default device. For a while this feature actually worked, but now it doesn't.

Is there a setting I can change? Maybe in about:config?

Thanks!

Certain homepages (e.g. viofo. com) cause to download and play their videos right away without asking for one's consent. I thought that was due to using the Chrome browser (tried in vain to stop this in the settings of Chrome and Android). Having changed to Firefox browser for Android has not improved this experience yet. Can one switch off the auto video download in Firefox?

I always work with two topics, running two instances of Firefox for each. Each instance contains many tabs. The problem is that when I close the browser, all tabs are closed, and restoring the previous session opens the entire browsing history in both instances. Does anyone know how I can save the tabs in each Firefox instance so that when I reopen the browser, I can easily manage and split them?

I'm on T'bird 128.1.1esr and have been a user for many years. I use T'bird to manage 5 email accounts.

In previous versions if there are new emails the Inbox folder turns blue and tells me how many new emails have been received. This is particularly useful to me as with so many email accounts to monitor I have a number of rules that move new emails into folders thus with the target folder colour changing to blue I (1) know how many new emails I have received and (2) I can make sure I find them all.

Except that this is no longer working. Sometimes the indication is that there are x new emails yet none appear, at other times there are x new emails but I cannot find them all (assuming they exist in the first place, see my first point) as it seems some folders with a new email are no longer turning blue.

I don't think this is a setting issue, it seems to have started with the last one (or maybe, two) Thunderbird updates.

When I type in Word 365 (Mozilla Firefox, 129.0.2 (64-bit)- snap for Ubuntu 24.04), using East European characters (e.g. š, č, ž), the text after the first such written character (see the first uploaded image) disappears after going to new line (pressing Enter or moving mouse to another line) (see the second uploaded image). It worked before on the Ubuntu 22.04 with manually installed firefox (not from snap) and is also working in Chrome.

I am unable to find the solution. I already installed additional fonts, I also created links to the installed fonts in $USER/snap/current/.local/share but nothing helps.

Has anyone encountered similar problem (and found a solution)?

Ubuntu 24.04, Thunderbird 128.1.0esr (64-bit)

I have a mix of POP and IMAP accounts. All are read when starting Thunderbird, I receive the messages. But then, only the IMAP accounts get the messages, whatever the configuration of the Server Settings. I.e. no messages for the POP accounts from "Check for new messages every X minutes", nor from "Get Messages". I have to restart Thunderbird to get the new messages for the POP accounts.

Everything worked well before, this problem happens since I have upgraded Xubuntu from 22.04 to 24.04, where the Thunderbird package switched to a mandatory Snap, where it upgraded to 128.1.0.
