Hello. I was browsing for something on Amazon and I noticed this annoying icon in my search bar as well as a popup asking me to enable some new feature called "Review Checker". I have clicked close, and it appeared again. Then I clicked Not Now. Still I wasn't sure it's completely disabled because the icon in the search bar wasn't gone. I've done extensive search on how to properly disable this feature but I couldn't find a working solution.

For example, there are some config flags suggested here, https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/disable-review-checker/td-p/47370 and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1443734

Accordingly, I've set browser.shopping.experience2023, browser.shopping.experience2023.ads.enabled, and browser.shopping.experience2023.enabled to FALSE. I restarted Firefox. However, once I got to the product page on Amazon, I still see the Review Checker button in my search bar. This feels like a bug. Should I submit a bug ticket or is there a way to make it disappear for good?

Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com

Can not go to x.com because of this, so what happened between last night and today? This is not a good thing for Firefox and it is upsetting!

I have one Windows and one MacBook machine and Firefox on both. Both are signed in to my Mozilla account. On the Windows machine I have 5+ containers, these containers never sync to my MacBook Firefox. I have signed out of all machines, including an iPad and iPhone. Nothing has worked over multiple months. Note that at some time in the past the containers did sync.

The MacBook is on Sonoma 14.5, and FireFox 128.0. The Windows is Windows 10 Pro and FireFox 128.0.

Please help.

Webpages don't open on Firefox and a link is clicked (for example, a link in an email). This problem does not happen when using another browser. I followed the advice given to someone who had the same problem. Switching to "No proxy" as suggested did not correct the problem. The advice was from zeroknight and is pasted below: zeroknight 12/1/23, 1:28 AM more options The browser settings are in the menu that looks like three horizontal bars (≡). From there, go into Connection Settings and change "Use system proxy settings" to "No proxy".

Refreshing Firefox did not correct the problem

I find the new Review Checker on Amazon marginally helpful - probably because my habit is to always look at most recent reviews of all rankings, instead of the path Amazon leads - to only positive reviews. However, occasionally the R.C. gets what I think is an erroneous result. Recent case was a Japanese stationery product (on the U.S. site) where all of the reviews were in Japanese. R.C. rated the reviews as an "F," I presume because R.C. didn't translate them. But Firefox could easily translate to English, and looking at them they seemed both authentic and positive. My real question is this: for a new, beta product I would think Mozilla would welcome some reviews of the Review Checker. I could find no way to do this. Hence - this posting. Suggestion - a feature on the still in Beta review checker to grade the check of the review.

I have no idea if a posting here gets to the right place, but if not I would appreciate a pointer to the correct place. thx, .

Firefox 128 (windows 10 pro) just did something strange, it suddenly needed me to close it in task manager, changed languages when restarted

At first, youtube had a glitch while I was watching a video, all the suggestions were from the same account on the right, and the rest of the screen was greyed out. Then it came back but the video played with a lot of skipping (I have 1gbps FTTH fibre, so that should not happen) and then it started to eat up a whole lot of memory with one firefox process being at 3gb of ram. I closed Firefox in Task Manager and then after waiting a bit for the system to stabilize, when it finally did, I restarted Firefox and it now was in French (Canadian), I am Canadian so I guess me adding the language to firefox for when I am typing in french is why it was there, but my default language was US English. The Restore session window was in French (CA) and I had to change it in the options.

Don't know what happened here exactly, but I thought I should report it, since I have telemetry turned off. It's working fine again, so maybe I could just blame windows, when I boot in Ubuntu 22.04 there's never a hiccup.

My wife cannot read them. I can barely read them. If this is not fixed soon, we will switch to another browser.

I develop wordpress websites on FF Dev Ed on a Mac running macOS12.7.4. This current problem is one I've never seen before.

  • In a regular window of FFDE, dropdown items on the menu, don't drop down.
  • A youtube video, visible in the source and in the editor, doesn't display on the page.
  • A gallery of logos doesn't appear on the page, though it does in the editor and the editor's preview.

These problems DON'T APPEAR

  • in a private window,
  • in vanilla Firefox,
  • in another user account, using FFDE
  • on other websites, using FFDE
  • in other browsers,
  • on other computers, using FFDE

In all those cases, site works perfectly. Actions:

  • refreshed the page (dozens of times),
  • cleared the site cache, the browser cache (Managed the data AND cleared the data)
  • turned off all extensions,
  • put the browser in troubleshooting mode,

all with no change. Although I don't think anyone else will see the problem, the site is https://homeopathyschool.org What am I missing?

16.7.2024

I read this German article:

Firefox 128 liefert per Default Daten für Werbetreibende

Mozilla lässt eine neue Technologie für "datenschutzfreundliche digitale Werbung" in den Firefox einziehen. Die Aktivierung erfolgt ohne Einwilligung der Nutzer.

Which means Firefox 128 Delivers per-default Data for Advert agencies. Mozilla allows a new technology for "Date protection friendly digit Advertising" on Firefox. The activation is without permission from the user.

This is not good at all. I am now thinking of rejecting Fierfoy and moving to Opera or similar. Why did Morzilla take this fatal step?
