I'm using Firefox more as my first choice, but I can't get away from Chrome completely because of work. I still consider my Chrome bookmarks the "master" and occasionally sync them to Firefox. I would like to be able to bookmark something while in Firefox and then have it available from my other devices using either browser. Is there a way to have my bookmarks stored in a common location, like Google Drive, and accessed from either browser? I tried Floccus with Google Drive as the location but I can't get it to work.

@firefox Anyone got issues with youtube vids crashing after a couple of seconds? Tab does not react to inputs anymore - and the mouse pointer is gone within the tab. Closing the tab works.
Tried with all extensions disabled - same.
There's plenty of free memory, Processors are mostly idling - so not the usual stuff that brings ff down.
Sometimes a reboot fixes it for 1 or 2 vids, sometimes not. Any ideas appreciated (non-developer user, so please don't expect technical details, sorry)

I've been looking into moving over to Firefox from Brave and have added some hardening to Firefox. I think I may have done a bit too much but I'm not sure what to change. Brave and others render the terminal output fine but FF shows up like the pic attached. Anyone happen to know what I need to change to get it to show correctly? Thanks!!

@firefox Someone (or a bot, more likely) got trigger-happy with the Boost button and started flooding my stream with weird, no-context, OS fanboi toots.

You're coming across as a bored teenager, stop it. Firefox is better than this.

I'm trying to take a look at a scamming website, but it's using the debugger spamming to make reverse engineering difficult. Is there a way to just disable the debugger keyword? I don't really like to give the websites control over whatever I want to view.

As if it wasn't bad enough that they want me to use a random internet service to add a keyboard to a usb wifi receiver, they have the balls to put this for Firefox users. I clicked out of pure curiosity, as I'm not even remotely interested in involving a corporate internet service in getting my keyboard connected to my computer. This is the message you get now on Logi Options software if you have a Unifying Receiver: This is the message you get now on Logi Options software if you have a Unifying Receiver

EDIT: some people on the thread have brought up that the error message being displayed for Firefox users is due to the WebUSB API not being implemented by Firefox due to security concerns. This still does not justify having to use a web app to plug peripherals to a PC.

I want to get rid of them because I want to press ↑ on my keyboard to quickly get to the last item on the result list, but don’t want to have to cycle through the search icons.

None of the solutions I found online worked, so I thought I might give it a try here.

Same thing with Enhancer for YouTube.

I held off on Windows 10 for as long as I could until my job required it. Now this nonsense. I hope this isn't the start of them joining on the web DRM bandwagon.

It's so beautiful I might cry.

I'm looking for something like the tab stacking from Vivaldi or just the way chrome handles tab groups.

I've tried simple tab groups before but it was occasionally a bit janky and I was looking for a different UI implementation. Not really keen on using a sidebar either and the majority of extensions I found all seemed to be using the sidebar.

Single videos(Not belonging to a playlist) and the first video of any playlist loads fine, but subsequent videos never load.

I am using firefox rpm package with ublock origin with default configurations on my fedora 38.

My icons used to actually show the logo of the website, and now it just shows the lame default ones. How do I change this?

I want to disable offline auto-completion for facebook.com, bbc.com and other 'popular' sites on android.

I found the lists of domains were added with this commit https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-android/commit/65fdbf4696a but I cannot find a suitable about:config option to disable this feature.
