Hello,
I am using firefox 126.0 on linux mint 21.2 with an policy file in the directory "/usr/lib/firefox/distribution/policies.json". This is just working fine with one little problem. When opening firefox the first time, it does not apply the policy to set the startpage to the url in the policy file. All other policies seem to be applied correctly. I figured out, that at the first start of firefox, no user profile (folder) "~/.mozilla/" exists. When i click the little "house" button on the the top besides the refresh buton, the correct startpage is shown. After the first start this folder is created and then the policies work fine even the startpage shows up directly. Can I somehow use a template profiles-folder for new users, so they have the correct firefox feeling at the first start or is there something missing in my policy file ? The policy file has rights set to "644 root:root" Image of the policy file is attached because I can't upload files other then images.
Thank you.

This is outright censorship which is something [edited] do.
Tell me how to fix your browser so I may access x.com again or I stop using Firefox forever.

Hi, So I'm on Facebook. A friend has a new post. The post is all squished together, almost on top of the other line. I have looked over my settings to see if there is a way to alter the spacing but to no avail. I now realized why I stopped using Firefox a little while back and this is the main reason. If I can't read posts on social media apps on my computer browser what's the use?
Suggestions and fixes MOST welcome before I throw my hands up again. Edge is messed up in other ways as is Opera so I'd really love to have just ONE browser that I can depend on. Considering I used to be a HUGE fan of FF back in the day before the entire code was rewritten I'd love to be back in the fold. If this can be resolved I'll stay. For sure.
Thanks so much Richard

Hi, I have a problem with Youtube playback on my machine. Sometimes videos are playing and skipping few seconds, sometimes stopping/hanging and using a lot of CPU (I can hear CPU fan ramping up). It mostly happens when I play videos at 1080p and up. Sometimes video can start playing, then skip few seconds, play few more seconds and hang, sometimes after refresh it works fine, another time it works for like a minute and then again hangs/skips. I had this problem on FF 89, I've updated to 11x, still persisted, now I have FF 125.0.3 (64 bit). Things that i've tried: - enabling/disabling hardware acceleration in FF - enabling/disabling gpu hardware acceleration in Windows - changing some settings in about:config (fe. media.wmf.zero-copy-nv12-texture to false and gfx.direct3d11.reuse-decoder-device to false, and few more) - disabling and deleting addons

firefox setup 127.0.2.exe offline installer fails with message about "extraction failed" and popup "file is corrupt".
Windows explorer shows file properties and a signature for mozilla.
Is there a way to manually unpack the .exe? Someplace that issues are logged with more data (which file is corrupt?) There is a progress bar that flashes by part way, then a popup window with the file corrupt message.
(Trying to update to hopefully get rid of some crashes.)
Is there a hash for that .exe I could check?

Sync just does NOT work. I installed FF on my Mac brand new and fresh... brand new machine. Signed into Sync. NOTHING. After 6-7 HOURS... nothing. It just gets NOTHING AT ALL from my Windows Desktop.
I've signed out of ALL Firefox/Mozilla sync sessions... signed in clean- all browsers are up to date. And the about:sync-log page shows a LONG streak of errors... NON STOP ERRORS.
Why?! Why can't we just sync extensions to install and bookmarks across machines? How is this that hard for Mozilla?!

Day after day and attempt after attempt of failures for a basic function of the browser.
Here is the text of the latest log and showing constant connection errors- mind you NOTHING is breaking on my internet as I'm often streaming things and watching stuff while surfing, or others in the house are. Our connection, and Firefox getting online, are all working fine. I am at a loss. I don't understand how this is so terribly broken out of the box that you can't just sign in and let it talk to their servers. I know Google has billions behind Chrome, but this shouldn't be so 1990's bad by comparison to Chrome sync.

Hey folks, I've been noticing something peculiar with Firefox that's been bothering me lately. Whenever I try to watch videos on YouTube in resolutions above 1080p, they tend to randomly buffer. It's quite frustrating, especially when I know my internet connection is stable and other browsers don't seem to have this issue. Has anyone else experienced this problem with Firefox? And if so, do you have any tips or solutions to share? Thanks in advance for any insights!

My default search engine is Duck Duck Go. I frequently use a VPN.
I am usually in North America and want to search sites in North America. When I run a search by typing a search term in Firefox, I get results beginning in UK, and I see that a blue toggle switch has been set to UK. (See image.)
This started 2-3 weeks ago.
How do I set things so that my searches begin in North America?
I have checked "about:config" preferences and do not see anywhere that UK is specified. I don't see a region preference setting, either.
Thank you.

Hello,
when I select a Tab and then select from the context menu -Share- I can share the selected tab which means that the URL is copied to the application selected to share the tab with.
When I select from the context menu -Select All Tabs- and then from the context menu -Share- also only one tab can be shared.
Am I wrong in expecting that all the tabs be shared after -Select All Tabs-?

There is (IMHO) some missing functionality / unwanted feature or call it what you like (bug?).
History -> Manage History
select e.g. Last 7 days, right click on Name and select at least two attributes (you can choose from: Tags, Location,Most Recent Visit, Added and Last Modified)
Select the first entry of the list, all displayed fields are selected/highlighted.
Copy (either with the menu or with Ctrl-C) and paste it in your favourite text editor.
Why is only the URL copied? Other fields were also highlighted. Why are they not included?
This is WYSINWYG (what you see is not what you get).
It is possible to export bookmarks as an html file, so why is this not possible with history?
OK, it is possible to query the sqlite3 database directly to get some history info but it's a bit cumbersome.
To do so,
copy the sqlite (places.sqlite) database to some safe place then open the database (with 'sqlite3 places.sqlite') get the history info you are interested in with a sqlite query, e.g. select title,visit_count,site_name,url,description,last_visit_date from moz_places where url like '%support%';
But there is no simple (AFAIK) way to convert 'last_visit_date' (an integer) to something human readable.
So either include the whole selection when something is copied (WYSIWYG) or provide export history as an html file.
Any suggestions?
TIA

The animated images of the articles are loaded once every 3. On Chrome Android I have no problem.
I solve it manually by resizing the page, so they load.
Where could the problem be? In the animation of their site? Do you have any advice on a fix?
