In Duolingo you can turn on/off the sound settings which include 'motivational' noises when you answer correctly. I find them annoying so have them off. I've been using Duolingo and Firefox together for years, no problem, then a couple of months ago these sound settings became ineffective i.e. permanently on even if turned off in Duolingo. I thought the problem was a bug in Duolingo until I loaded it from Microsoft Edge and there was no problem. The settings turned on and off. I'd prefer to carry on as I was before and just use Firefox. How can I fix this?

As the subject says, I'm trying to get Discord links to open in the Discord desktop app instead of a Firefox tab. The 'Applications' section of my Firefox settings that has the settings to handle 'mailto' and 'magnet' links in external apps doesn't have any setting for Discord links for me to change, and I can't figure out how to add one.

I use Thunderbird for email, when on MX Linux I use the Flatpack version. I've noticed that the Thunderbird configuration frequently resets itself, from using local folders on an adjacent disk, to a location within the Flatpack.

I know when this happens because I can then no longer send emails; I have to copy any text written, enter setup, re-select the desired folder, and re-start Thunderbird.

Can you please help with a fix for this issue?

Best regards,

Richard Palmer

I like to prune my browser history manually to keep things I might need to get back to in the near future, but don't want to clog up my bookmarks with, and get rid of the rest. As of version 133, this has been made a lot more difficult, unless I'm missing an option somewhere. - In Settings, there's only the "all or nothing" approach for browser history, no way to be selective. (You can be selective when deleting cookies, but not history.) - In the History sidebar, where I used to do this, you can group by date or site. I used both: Group by site to avoid deleting the recent stuff I want to keep, and group by date to delete old things I no longer need (anything over a week old). It's no longer possible to delete e.g. everything from the gmail domain, or everything from October. I have to delete each. and. every. site. individually. For Gmail, for example, this means roughly a gajillion lines per visit. - In the sidebar, the keyboard Delete button no longer works either. I have to manually click the trash can icon, wait for it to vanish, click the next one...

Is the option to edit this efficiently completely gone, or am I missing something?

Bonjour, J'avais depuis de nombreuses années installé le navigateur Firefox sur mon smartphone. J'avais, parallèlement, activé la synchronisation sur les divers appareils sur lesquels Firefox était installé. La recherche des mots de passe dans mon smartphone (système d'exploitation Androïd) s'exécutait sans problème, que ce soit en utilisant l'empreinte ou le schéma d'authentification. Depuis 1 mois, sans raisons apparentes, je n'ai plus accès au module de mots de passe. L'authentification ne permet pas l'ouverture de la section pour faire apparaitre la liste des mots de passe, et l'empreinte qui le permettait après de multiples tentatives, pendant une certaine période, est désormais sans effet. Pourriez vous me communiquer quelles pourraient être les causes de ce phénomène et comment réparer ce dysfonctionnement. J'ai déjà essayé de désinstaller et réinstaller l'application Firefox sans résultats. Je vous remercie du concours que vous voudrez bien m'apporter. Cordialement.

How can I save a link to my android launcher and have it open in firefox even when the target has a manifest.json for a PWA?

By now I've done a bunch or research about PWAs. Old man Moz. has a nifty article about building them too.

Apparently they've been all the rage since 2017 or so.

But it's driving me up the wall at the moment. I like all the browser goodness available when I look at a website. Multiple tabs. Easy fwd/back navigation between sites. The ability to fire up another tab right there. Bookmark a particular page. Send a link. Whatever it is, I want my browser functionality.

I want to be able to save a link to my android launcher and have it open in firefox even if the marketing dept at the website would rather I thought it was an app.

Surely there is something in about:config? I've searched for everything I could think of and come up empty.
