I'm here to AVOID AI, not to have more of it shoveled onto my plate, and I know I am not the only person who prefers Firefox for that reason. Integrating more AI features is only going to drive away the people who use this browser.

Hello, I've recently had to send my mac for full refurb. They wiped everything and I had to reinstall all applications. But after I installed and singed in to my Firefox, I could not find my bookmarks. I have searched online and followed several steps but still can't find the bookmarks. Please, can you help me recover them?

I'm sick of having to turn off ai features in every freaking thing, if the product was any good you wouldn't have to push it so hard!

This is bad for my data security and privacy. Bad for the environment. Spreads falsehoods. And promotes plagiarism.

I'm already starting to look around for other browsers so I can switch over and delete this account if you don't stop this garbage.

I use Firefox and recommend it to others entirely because it's proven to be one of the browsers with the least privacy concerns and bloat. Mozilla's recent intention to make Firefox a "modern AI browser" and riddle it with unwanted software additions ruins everything users love about the browser. If this AI integration moves forward, I'll be switching from Firefox to another browser.

Differences in the display of Firefox and Chrome styles on the website https://aistudio.google.com. In the first photo, Chrome and the styles look as they should, but in the second photo, Firefox and the styles do not work. I understand that this is most likely the fault of Google, which has prioritized optimization for Chrome over full cross-browser compatibility, but are there any solutions to fix this?

I've used Firefox my entire life, and completely severed ties with Chrome and Opera as privacy concerns cropped up, and have always recommended Firefox to friends and colleagues. But with the new CEO instantly backtracking on privacy concerns by pretending AI is just a buzzword that makes stockholders happy, I will be telling everyone to switch to librewolf or waterfox or zen instead. AI is glorified spyware, literally causes cancer as it poisons the water used to cool the necessary systems, and can't even tell you how many months are in the year or how many of them include a 'Y', I don't want this forced into my life for any period.

Please remove and do not add any AI/ML features to Firefox, it's the only mainstream browser of this kind left, i was planning on buying some merch but I don't think this company deserves my money if it tries to make cash off me in an insidious way either way

I love firefox. I recommend it to everyone. Because it's the only browser that appeared to have my best interest at heart. I develop extensions firefox-first rather than chrome-first. I don't want generative AI getting anywhere near any of my things, and I'm sorry to say I've switched to Waterfox for now. Please backtrack on this, I just want to use the internet without AI plastered in my face :<

I know I am far from the first person to bring this up, but it is absolutely horrid how a browser that is supposed to be one of the better options for privacy is starting to integrate more and more unwanted AI "features". None of us want this, nobody asked for this. Generative AI (including LLMs like ChatGPT and its equivalents) is horrific to even try to get a correct answer out of. It's simply processing your input and guessing what you want to hear in its output. It doesn't give facts, it doesn't help the user experience, it just makes things worse.

Every single time a new AI...thing is added, I have to go find a way to turn it off. If this keeps going, I cannot see a future where Firefox is a viable option for secure browsing. If anything, it may actually become on-par with or, dare I say worse than Google Chrome.

Hi! I have seen that Mozilla will be moving forwards with integrating AI to Firefox. I am very uncomfortable with this, as AI poses a risk to the privacy and security that made me choose Firefox in the first place. If this is the case and AI is truly integrated (at least without an option to turn it off or opt-out completely) I will no longer use this browser and switch to something else. I enjoy Firefox so I am hoping that this will not be necessary....but we will see.

Use of AI in Firefox destroys incentive to use Firefox at all. Implementation of AI features represents an obvious misunderstanding of the browser's userbase. I will switch browsers.

A few days ago my saved passwords all disappeared. I have been logging in manually and when I do Firefox asks if I want to save the password and I click yes. The password then shows up in the saved Passwords. But... in a day or so it disappears again. What's going on? I have not changed any settings.

Since last update (early mid Dec) browser history is not been deleted properly on clicking delete history. Recently opened tabs remain in history even after 3 to 5 requests to delete. The problem is the same on opening private purple tabs. Transfers history to normal tab history. Phone Samsung S21 Regards Rich

I use Firefox specifically because I appreciate(d) the flexibility and the privacy. Default AI makes it significantly more difficult to customize the browser to my preferences (ie, zero AI anywhere) and threatens the privacy that Firefox is known and recognized for. This is an absolutely incomprehensible decisions; it is no longer a "trustworthy" browser if it incorporates AI. Why ruin a good thing??

There is a common error documented in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-already-running-not-responding but none of the solutions fix my problem.

I have signed out of my PC and mobile devices Done a complete uninstall of firefox on the Windows 11 machine Searched and removed ALL files on the drive associated with Firefox or Mozilla, including cache and temp Searched and removed ALL Firefox or Mozilla keys in the registry Checkdisk Used update to refresh the windows install Multiple reboots

and a fresh download and install of Firefox. And still get the "already running" error. If I wait long enough - several minutes - I will get the "crash report" screen as the background process finally ends.

Any suggestions?

Firefox has been the most mainstream "good guy" browser for a long time, but it's no system's default. People use Firefox deliberately -- installing it by choice. We have other options (like LibreWolf) waiting for us, and we'll leave with one of them as soon as it's the better option. Save your money, save your customer base, save the environment, and don't try and shove another useless AI down our throats.
