Firefox

I have one tab that I would like to be able to run in background unthrottled. Ideally, I would disable background throttling for the specific URL I have open in that tab. Is this possible somehow?

Built @thunderbird 123 Beta 3 @firefox 122.0.1 and some @xfce stuff for @archlinux this morning now just relaxing and listening to podcasts @kodsnack @LateNightLinux @DestinationLinux @TuxDigital

I've recently re-discovered firefox, and have fallen in love with Reader View, but I'm noticing a few problems. Most pages with articles will work just fine, but some refuse to allow reader view, and when you force those pages into reader view it doesn't display the appropriate content.

In today's issue, the website is just happy to allow me to view it in a readable format, but only if I want to read privacy and cookie garbage. How can I select the portion of the page I want to actually read, and tell firefox to ignore whatever bullshit I'm "supposed" to see or whatever?

When ever a web page uses the camera it only has access to the selfie cam

"Copy Link Without Site Tracking" now on @firefox ! 🙌

Not too bad. Eight days after the official Firefox release is not terrible.

My doggie looking like the @firefox logo 🤣🤣

Hello @firefox
Do you plan to integrate extensions support into the iOS application in the future?

The new ability to edit PDFs in @firefox makes my life a helluva lot easier.

I have enabled the option to delete browser data when closing the app because I prefer to restart with a fresh clean slate. This worked for me for a long time, however recently I noticed that it doesn't erase all the data anymore. I close the app, it shows the clearing message and when I reopen the app I have several issues.

These are things that don't work as expected:

• all logins (without auto log off from the server side) are still active. I don't store my passwords or anything, so there should be still the respective session cookies around.
• entered formular data is still around. When I open a website where I have entered text in a form it is still there. This does not happen everywhere e.g. not with search bars but with some enter username forms, so I believe it depends on the settings of the respective website
• sometimes when reopening the app the section of the starting page showing the previous visited websites still shows the history for about a second and then gets cleared. This even happens if I have turned off my phone in between, so I don't think it's just because everything still was in the RAM. However this one is the most random of the issues. I cannot reproduce it on purpose.

Any ideas on how I fix this without clearing the entire app cache manually after every use? The first one worries me the most because where is the point in not storing pwds when it stores the session anyway.

Shots fired 🔥

1. Open any website
2. Switch to another app and do literally anything
3. Go back to Firefox
4. Tab reloads for ~5s and wipes all form data

Poco F3 6GB
MIUI 14.0.9
Fennec 121.1
Battery saver: No restrictions
"media.aboutwebrtc.auto_refresh" - False

I doubt ram is an issue as there is always at least 1.7GB free. This bug has been occuring or a long time. 3 years old reddit post about it

Can I fix it myself or should I wait for it to get patched? I dont know if this is appropriate place to post this, but I cant use github

Вчера пытался перейти на Яндекс Браузер - не смог, к вечеру вернулся на @firefox.
А все из-за рекламы, которую Яндекс активно продвигает даже платным пользователям и заблочить её ни какими средствами не получается (половину плагинов удаляющих рекламу установить не возможно, приложение Adguard спокойно рекламу от Яндекс пропускает).

А #firefox хорошо, установил #ublockorigin и красота!

Thank you @firefox

A great video about the Manifest v3 and how Google is trying to make you view ads.

If you don't know about smart keywords, basically you can set phrases as shortcuts for specific bookmarks. I want a folder with all of my keywords synced, and that folder only. On each profile or account I have have whatever other folders and the placement of the folder with the keywords doesn't matter as long as they have the same name.

This means 123 is now beta and 122 giving the ability to visit ipv6 sites (which i am looking forward to) should be out soon. Then its just a matter of waiting for Fennec F-Droid to be built and released.
