Firefox Community Forum

The entire appeal of this browser is that it has NOT been ruined with AI slop. I will stop using Firefox if this incredibly out of touch new CEO gets his way and destroys everything I like about it. Please reconsider betraying everyone who chooses to use your product.

hello i wish to export book marks from floorp my default browser but when i down load a browse and go to the import section i am asked to import from browsers which i do not have on my p c i just want to import bookmarks from floorp can you help please

I have many, MANY issues with LLMs, but a lot of them come down to this: I don't want my computer doing things that can't be fully tracked down in logs.

LLMs and other "ai" aren't traceable, and their outputs aren't truly repeatable: their information comes from loose associative heuristics that don't follow any kind of human logic, and they are inherently prone to erroneous data. Even if there was an ai that was right 99% of the time (which is currently impossible, with all existing models being at MOST 50% accurate), I wouldn't want to use it if it couldn't show me exactly where its information came from, without errors and without hallucinations, every time.

There's enough misinformation on the internet as it is. I don't want my browser, the vehicle I use to navigate information, adding more.

In addition, I don't really want my bank account information stolen when I read a Reddit post, thanks.

After a recent Firefox update, I noticed an issue when trying to rearrange Containers. When I create a new Container, it is added to the bottom of the list (which is expected). However, when I try to rearrange it in Settings → Manage Containers and move it into the middle of the list, the cursor behaves as usual and turns into a plus sign, but instead of rearranging the container, Firefox opens that container in the current tab and displays only a blank white page. The container is not moved in the list at all. This behavior did not occur before the update. All I want to do is rearrange my containers in the list, but this currently seems impossible due to this behavior.

I am an IT proofessional in a large city. As such, I make sure people have Firefox installed and use it. I tell everyone that it is the best browser with the highest security and it's not beholden to corporate BS.

I want to let you know that if you shoehorn AI into Firefox, I will uninstall it from every computer in the city. Artificial Intelligence as it is now is a security risk, a HUGE waste of energy, and also wrong somewhere around 50% of the time. I already have to disable and uninstall microsoft AI crap because it eats resources like fire burning through a forest. Why is this what you want Firefox to become?

You are shooting yourselves in the foot with this. I don't care how much money you've invested on its development, drop it now. You're already the browser with the absolute smallest market share in the industry. Why would you ensure that NO ONE uses the one thing you actually do? Or do you think going AI-first will somehow push you ahead in the game?

Read the room, man. No end user wants AI. The only reason it's used at all is because it is in EVERYTHING. No one can get away from it. People use it by accident and corporate bigwigs call that a win. And it really is crammed into everything, too. At least once a week I have to find some new little AI toy to disable so someone's computer doesn't tell them to jump off a bridge or something.

I am pleading with you to stop.

You really don't need to answer this thread. There's just no way to privately send a message to Firefox for someone to read. I hope you pass this along.

Hi there volunteering person! This is obviously not pointed at you. That being said..

No one wants AI. Your ceo is too rich to care about his customer base and like Duolingo, people who came to this browser to get away from The Chrome of it All, and here you go following in their idiotic footsteps. Revise AI usage and save the trust you can still hold

Firefox is already a product that works and is probably the best alternative to any of the other major browsers out there. It's a product that I've been happy to use for many, many years. So why is it being ruined by this needless push to add in "AI"? I don't want it. I don't want any part of it to touch my experience using this browser. I want either an easy way to completely turn it off so it can't suck up my data and expose my private information, or not have it be included at all. I will actively be looking for alternative browsers if these plans continue.

In light of the new CEO's stance on AI, I am STRONGLY considering leaving Firefox for a different browser. AI is inherently anti-privacy, anti-security, and against everything I stand for. I sincerely hope that Firefox backtracks on this pro-AI decision, as I want nothing to do with anyone who supports slop like that

Can anyone explain to me why Firefox apparently can't seem to maintain its open tabs? In a world where every other browser appears to retain active tabs between sessions, it seems Firefox will permanently lose all of them if you so much as blow on it, i.e., inadvertently close a tabless window, effectively overwriting any previous window with the open tabs. At the very least, other browsers allow users to recover any lost tabs, and even entire windows of tabs, with little effort. The fact that this hasn't been addressed is perplexing.

The title bar, etc. is this really obnoxious blue and I'd like to change it to something else. I can't find the answer to this anywhere, except for "try themes," except those don't work either. I imagine there's a setting in about:config.

Thanks.

Hi Due to a corrupted profile following a Windows 10 to Windows 11 upgrade, I have had to get my laptop reset at a computer service business. They required copying everything off, clearing the hard drive and reinstalling everything. Mozilla Firefox was my default browser prior to this having to be done, however, Firefox was not reinstalled. I have just done that myself. Is it possible to recover the bookmarks I had previously saved to my old Firefox programme? Thank you in advance Gordon Carter

I am looking for confirmation that Mozilla is moving to an 'AI browser'.

Will there be an option to not use this data harvesting LLM garbage or will mozilla be abandoning their core values?
