When is Firefox (across devices) going to bring "Tab Groups" in-built in 2025 as it is difficult to ditch Chrome esp., if it is related to work or research and similar tabs are opened up?

I have to rely on chrome and edge for same and both have not only brought it but improved it considerably. Also, chrome has not brought for mobile devices so grouping of tabs is more easy and simple but when I look at Firefox and Firefox based browsers, I see nothing of that thing present. The addon esp., Simple Tab Groups (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/simple-tab-groups/) is unreliable (see reviews).

If Firefox want us to use their browser and as default, they should see why we are using Chrome and Edge (latter, having vertical tabs in-built, also).

I hope 2025 is a year Firefox learns of how to retain users across devices. Currently Firefox is more from 2005.

Browser Choice Alliance wont be helpful if browsers like Firefox dont see users and their reviews and posts and issues reported. "https://browserchoicealliance.org/"

3 years post and still no work, and Firefox wants us to use their browser over Chrome and Edge. Why? And how?

Hello,

About a month or so ago, I noticed the New Tab "+" button was missing on the right hand side of the tabs bar. Also missing is the "arrow" for clicking tabs rightward (the left "arrow" for clicking tabs leftward is still present). After a Firefox update today, I had hoped it would come back but it is still missing. I opened "customize toolbars" and clicked "restore defaults" but the New Tab "+" button is not listed as an option! Is this yet another bug that Mozilla claims is a "feature" that no one asked for (like erroneously moving the tabs bar to the top)?

Thanks.

Google web search on firefox is being cut off and adding a second scroll bar. This only happens on one account, and my other account doesn't have this problem. I have tried disabling all addons/extensions and it has not helped. If I could get some help with this that would be great because I am at a loss as to what is causing it. It also happens if I sign in on a private window, and does not happen on chrome. So this exclusively happens on this account when on firefox.

As the title states, certain media elements within Firefox refuse to play with audio, but only with frustrating inconsistency. For example, any videos on Youtube are fine. Any videos on Reddit are fine. But many videos, most commonly on boorus and streaming sites I cannot name here, will not play. The volume on the video slider is all the way up, the Firefox application is not muted, the site is not muted, and the tab is not muted. The only thing that makes those videos play audio is if I left click on them to open them in another tab by themselves. While it solves the issue, it's still an extremely inconvenient way to go about my browsing. I know for a fact that this is a Firefox problem because those same videos on those same sites work perfectly fine within other browsers. Please, does anybody know of a solution to this issue?

I'd like to take a full-page screenshot of my content within my Canvas/Instructure online class, but it only captures what's visible. I've tried opening the frame in its own tab, but it doesn't help.

Can anyone please help? Thanks.

Windows 11 Position Of Picture in Picture

Hi, I just switched from windows 10 to Windows 11. On windows 10 once you position the picture in picture once it appears in that position every time time you start up a new picture in picture. In Windows 11 the picture in picture doggedly appears in the same position necessitating moving it to your preferred position every time.

I am running Windows 11 with an RTX4080 super on two 4K screens set to Nvidia surround mode with the latest driver. The picture in picture always positions about 20 pixels into the left (main) screen. I then move it to the 10,10 position on the right screen. I expect the next time I start a picture in picture that it will appear at the 10,10 position on the right screen. Instead it appears in the old position on the left screen, forcing me to move it every time.

The current version of Firefox remembers the size of the picture in picture when I resize it. But is does not remember the x,y position on the picture in picture once it is resized over a certain size.

Is there a setting in about that sets the position of the picture in picture?

}

But uncontrolled connections to the following addresses continue anyway:

I may have missed something and you can tell me how I can control these connections inclusive. Because all other connections can be controlled by configs and policies. But not these and it raises big questions. It seems to me that the browser should allow to configure any network requests that aren't related to the user web browsing itself. If some connections cannot be controlled in any way then I can't call it anything other than either a bug or an attempt to monitor users as do in Google Chrome.

Having a problem with Firefox the last few weeks. I'm on 64-bit version 133. When I go to a web site I get the this message:


Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at www.mozilla.org. If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

If I reload the page from the 'Try Again' button or the reload icon in the top menu bar it will start to display. I usually have to reload multiple times for the page to start to load. Sometimes the page loads completely the first time, Sometimes it only loads partially (i.e. only text) or only part of the page loads correctly. I reload a few more times and the page finally loads completely. This makes it very difficult to browse almost any web page. I have Firefox on 3 computers (Windows 7 & 10) and have this problem on all three. I've visited web pages in Edge without problems. Any ideas? Thanks
