I have seen a few notifications from trading.questrade.com on my Pixel 6a running Android 14 even when I don't have a tab open for the website and I am not logged in. I do have the website in the Settings-> Site permissions -> Exceptions list, but it is very strange that notifications are shown for a website that isn't open in any tab (not in the inactive tabs either). The notification sent does seem to be related to my Questrade accounts. Would anyone have any idea how this could happen. It's a bit concerning.

Firefox details:

127.0.2 (Build #2016028743), hg-c7bfb1e800e2+ GV: 127.0.2-20240624183754 AS: 127.0

Firefox continuously minimizes itself. I have uninstalled reinstalled cleared cache etc I'll be in the middle of reading an article and down it goes. It does not happen on other web browsers so I do not think it is my phone. I installed with recommended settings

Greetings FF Community, New Samsung Galaxy S9 Ultra tablet running FF ver 127.02 on Android 14. Have no option to customize toolbar or even add the File Menu to the top of Firefox as other resources in Firefox indicate. Using a Finite bluetooth keyboard, ALT key does nothing, using bluetooth mouse right click on empty space in address bar - no context menu appears, enabled in mouse settings. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Screen shots below of laptop and S9 Ultra. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Using the latest version (127.0.2; installed from Play store today, on a fresh Android install), any non-English site I visit I get the nagging popup asking me if I want to translate.

'Never translate this site' works, and 'Never translate Dutch' (and presumably other languages as well) too (so at least I can workaround it, but 'Always offer to translate' off will still nag about translating sites, so is bugged.

And I still have the translate button taking up space in the URL bar. How do I remove it?

I'm experiencing an issue where the highlighted text in Wikipedia article previews on Firefox for Android overlaps with other text, making it difficult to read. This happens consistently when I search for terms on Wikipedia within the Firefox app.

Steps to Reproduce:

* Open Firefox for Android.
* Search for any term on Wikipedia using the search bar.
* Observe the article previews in the search results.
* Notice how the highlighted text overlaps with other text, making it unreadable.

Expected Behavior: The highlighted text should be displayed clearly and not overlap with other text elements in the article preview.

Device Information:

* Device: Moto Edge 50 Fusion 
* Android version: 14
* Firefox version: 127.0.2

Additional information: I'm using extensions such as uBlock origin, Dark reader, Ghostery tracker and Privacy badger

Please investigate and resolve this rendering issue to improve the readability of Wikipedia article previews in Firefox for Android.

The nine dots that appears on most Google pages to allow for choosing an app does nothing. It does work with the Samsung browser. This is reason that I have not changed to Firefox many years ago. I was hoping that it would work by now. Is there a change in the settings for Firefox that would allow this to work? If there isn't, I guess that I am stuck using the Samsung browser, as I don't like the Chrome browser.

Formatted my phone but playing videos still lags and stutters on Firefox browser on my Samsung. Only happens on Firefox, I've tested on Qwant, Duckduckgo and Brave and this problem doesn't occur. What might be the problem and solution?

It's interesting that sometimes the video plays fine until I unmute it. Sometimes the problem goes away after I stop and play or refresh the page. I often have to play the video on a different browser.

So, videos work fine on other browsers so I discart being a phone problem. But on my other phone this problem doesn't happen with firefox.

I've been for several months looking for help/answer/fix for this issue. And I've been with firefox for ever and I don't mind minor bugs and problems but this is starting to be a bit annoying and more and more I feel like I need to move on to a new browser.
