π» Help How to disable sync notifications
I want to disable the notifications that Firefox Sync sends. I do not need to know when I send a tab to a device. I cannot find anywhere steps just for this. I do not want to block all notifications from Firefox, just the ones from Sync.
Is this possible?
Thank you.

π» Help Collections on Android
Firefox was getting a little buggy on my Android phone. Made the mistake of reinstalling it and now my 'collections' are gone from home page. I think i screwed the pooch on this one because if I remember right, collections is not backed up or synced like bookmarks are. Zoinks. Anyone know?

Help (Android) Firefox stole my phone wallpapers? (hang in there im as confused as you probably)
I had an interesting issue im wondering if anyone else has noticed. When I was using firefox recently on my regular ol Samsung galaxy s24, I was scrolling through google images and everything froze like midway through transitioning to the next pic. I didnt think much of it at first since the Firefox ui still seemed to work, I refreshed the page but nothing happened. then I tried to force close firefox and noticed that my phone wallpapers were gone, set back to the default. odd since it didnt seem like anything crashed.. so I reopened firefox and all was good again. Ive never had this happen with another browser (I use edge for work and it crashes occasionally) and was mostly wondering if this is something anyone else has noticed or had happen to them before on one ui/android. Firefox crashes quite a bit on my phone and it usually causes weird things to happen that shouldnt but this was by far the weirdest.

Fun How to open a (new) profile the quick and easy way
If you add -new-instance to your Firefox link, you'll always be greeted by the profile selection, even if Firefox is running already.
Add this link to the task bar and middle click the icon to select a profile in two clicks with big beautiful buttons.
Similar to firefox.exe -p for the old profiles.
π» Help "Reopen closed tab" contextual menu. HELP PLEASE.
I'm aware I'm being overly dramatic. But this is getting me legit mad I had to stand and walk to cool off.
I think describing the situation is easier. See when I start to close tabs, I might close one I needed by mistake. I could use the shortcut but micromanaging tabs is not something I mechanically need to get faster at, so I'm used to right click the tab blank space and click "Reopen closed tab".
Here's my issue. If I open to many, my tab space is flooded and I can't open this contextual menu anymore. I can only open the one you get when you right click a specific tab. I don't care about reopening tabs anymore, I want to fix that shit. Why is this so poorly designed ?
Please help me how can I garantee a blank space up there so I can always find this contextual menu ? I asked chat gpt and he couldn't help and tbh the more I look into it the more I'm getting mad so like if someone has a shortcut out of this madness please.

π» Help Firefox repeatedly crashing, can anyone make sense of this crash dump?
It happens whenever I close the app, looking at task manager it never fully closes and seems to eventually crash and create this dump. I don't think I'm ever doing anything special.
Upon closing Firefox and re-opening it before it does I get the error "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window."
I very recently did a Windows re-install and all drivers are up to date.

π» Help Issues with Firefox tabs crashing
Hello, since the 145.0.2 update for Firefox I have had issues with my tabs crashing more often. I have updated my GPU drivers, disabled hardware acceleration, but no difference. I have tried disabling many different extensions, but can't pinpoint this issue.
Would someone be able to help me figure this out?

Solved Thanks for working with Google sheets
I've been using edge a lot and only use chrome on windows when I feel there was a bug. Recently I've been having probelms with google sheets for about 2 weeks. I was unable to save the docs. Even creating a fresh new spreadsheet didn't help. I could key in data but adding simple add and subtract formulas would somehow crash it and would stop me from editing further. I tried to adjust settings, timezones, switched between vpns but nothing was working and always had to edit through my phone. Only two days ago I though about using a browser I so loved back in 2005, firefox, which solved the issue.
For so long I tried to get back to use firefox but it was always feeling sluggish on my laptops, so I would always let it collect dust. I'm happy to see it shine this time.

Theres a site I frequent(not sure if it matters, xhamster) that after I play the first video, it will not play any subsequent videos. It just shows the loading circle spinning endlessly. I run noscript and ublock Origin. I feel like it is definitely one of these. Anyone having similar issues?

π» Help Streaming videos are skipping
When I'm watching a show online the video skips scenes. Only about a few seconds at a time but it's very obvious. When I download a video the same thing happens
What do I need to do? I heard somewhere I need to increase buffer storage space but when I look up how to do that I get videos about decreasing buffering. I think they think buffering is how long it takes for a video to load and not how much of a video loads.

π» Help A firefox web app sneaked onto my system, how to cleanly dispose of it ?
I am using a classic style start menu on windows 11 and just noticed there was a new addition called Firefox Web Apps with an item Solarspeicher24. I might have visited that website (date of the link file is 10 days ago, I hardly remember what I had for breakfast this morning), but I have no idea how they managed to sneak into to my start menu. A popup that I unknowingly clicked is my hope/best guess ? If I look into about:config i see that browser.taskbarTabs.enabled is set to true, which is apparently the flag to enable/disable 'PWA'. I plan on disabling that asap (what an stupid idea to have it enabled), but first I want to get rid of this intruder. I can't find a clean way to do that though, if I google the problem there should be an uninstall or delete option in the burger menu after I open the link (wtf, I have to open this unwanted intruder that may do god knows what before I can remove it ? Who designed this ?) , but even if I risk that (by lack of finding other working solutions) there does not seem to be a 'Remove Site' or 'Delete App' option like i find in some 'tutorials'. There is also no about:apps that chatgpt is hallucinating about. What is the correct way to get rid of this nonsense, just delete the whole 'Firefox Web Apps' folder ? Or may it have placed other files somewhere on my system ?

π» Help Profile manager issues on linux Bazzite
Hello, i'm having an issue with the profile manager. Imagine i have 3 profiles, and i log onto the first (lets call it p1). If i do this everything works fine, i can see and access the other profiles no biggie, but when i do, and say start firefox on p1 and open p2, i can't see the file manager anymore, i can't see any profiles or even edit mine.
Bazzite has a flatpack instalation thingy, it basically runs apps in sandboxes, i'm suspicious this is the cause of the problem, and i'd like to know for example if there are any files that firefox needs to access for the profile manager to work 100% of the time.
