Firefox beta usually works OK but random webpages either take ages to load or even hang indefinitely. Most of the responses I've seen on this subject simply ask for more info re websites, extensions etc but other browsers don't have these problems, so it looks like a core Firefox thing.

Ecrypted/Dig signature help needed across multiple Thunderbird installs

I think I need a walk-through with links to focus what I'm missing. Short version, I need TBird Android to backup/save private keys so I can take them and import them to TBird in my Kali Linux and Windows installs so everything uses the same keys.

Longer story: I'm finally digging in to Thunderbird (coming away from Outlook client) using GMail. I'm doing this because I am beginning to migrate away from Windows to Linux so I need something neutral and capable. As of today I'm not completely off Windows so I need to dual boot for a while. And as a bonus, TBird for Android was just released.

First, A month ago I got TBird running in both OS's. I wanted to set up digital signatures and encryption because I'm interested in security and.. why not. Under WIN TBird I started the key generation, but then it pushed me down a road to say I needed to purchase a service from a Cert Auth to use SMIME. Possible would be DigiCert for about $75/yr and I googled and found SSL.com is spoken well about for $14/yr or $20 for 2-yr. I haven't gone that far yet. First question.. do I NEED and S/MIME cert to encrypt and sign?

Now I've discovered TBird for Android was released. I got it going and in its e2e section it also allowed key generation and usage for encryption and signature. Now I'm second guessing the need for the cert. I did that there, published it to keys.openpgp.org, made it public And now I want to sync my new key-set between my 3 instances of TBird.

Next issue is that I cant seem to find where I can export/back up my private key from TBird Android. Next I will need to move it to my PC (securely.. not using one drive.. etc) so my 2 instances of TBird here can import it.

So like I opened up with, I think I (and maybe the community at large) needs a walk-through of the links to the steps to accomplish setting up encryption, and backing up/moving it over to other instances of ThunderBird.

(Wouldn't an account login for TBird be useful to sync settings the way Firefox does right about now?)

Thanks all. -Guy

How can I remove "Firefox suggests" URLs from the address/search bar on Android? I found the help article "Firefox Suggest for Mobile" (last updated 4/22/24) but when I follow its directions, I only see the first 3 toggleable options. "Suggestions from Firefox" and "Suggestions from sponsors" don't appear at all. The suggested URLs are frequently sites I have never been to and never want to go to, and their appearance is extremely irritating. Attached is a screenshot of the settings page as it appears to me, with only 3 options.

If you leave more than one tab in the background while using Firefox, it may irregularly automatically shut down. This happens even if you manually change the close after n hours in the settings, and I'm currently using Samsung Galaxy. For Galaxy Tab, I've tried to lock the app, allow the background, etc. to prevent this irregular shutdown, but to no avail. How do I solve these problems?
