How can I sync only one bookmarks folder across Firefox profiles and accounts, with their smart keywords?

If you don’t know about smart keywords, basically you can set phrases as shortcuts for specific bookmarks. I want a folder with all of my keywords synced, and that folder only. On each profile or account I have have whatever other folders and the placement of the folder with the keywords doesn’t matter as long as they have...

Shouldn't browsers protect what users write from being seen by the website (like customer support chats) before hitting send? Would it be difficult to implement?

I’m sure its common knowledge by now that whatever you write in text boxes on customer support chats can be seen by whoever is on the other side, without or before hitting send. Don’t you think that’s a breach of privacy?! I imagine it isn’t too difficult to implement a fix for it: The browser (like Firefox) could choose...

Firefox for android doesn't connect to cloudflare dns using the DoH protocol

I’ve configured my android phone to connect to cloudflare dns using the one.one.one.one server. When I go to 1.1.1.1/help in Firefox for android, the page shows that it cannot use the DoH protocol, but Dot works. That wouldn’t be too much of a problem but, since Firefox has rolled out ECH and it requires DoH, Firefox won’t...

However, these are better suited for the cloud, so does anyone know where I can find info on how Firefox does their...

If you exclusively use vertical tabs (either with CSS or another way), how is it? Did you miss horizontal tabs at all?

I’m trying to switch to Floorp right now from Firefox, where I have both the regular horizontal tabs, and a flat vertical list with the Tree Style Tab extension. I use the later a lot, and while I could keep this setup in Floorp, I like that the vertical tabs can be native instead of using TST. However, it just feels weird to...

How Do I Launch Firefox with Specific Pages but Prevent Said Pages from Loading in Subsequent Windows?

So, it’s “migrate to Firefox because Google is doing more evil things to the web” day. Because of my need to remain constantly connected to my email, I configured Google Chrome to launch several pages at start up: my personal email, calendar, and drive, my university email, calendar, and drive, Facebook Messenger, and...

Firefox is nuking NextDNS with over 20k queries a day.

I tried giving NextDNS a shot. So far it looks great. My only problem it has 300k query limit for free in a month. I tried investigating the source of problem by looking a bit into about:networking and found out many queries has time to live of 300 seconds. I tried turning nextdns cache boost off and on but it made no...
