I saw on the project page that ClearURLs is included, but looking at the Arkenfox wiki it seems that uBlock Origin already handles that task, when you turn on the AdGuard URL Tracking Protection list and import the Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool list, both of which LibreWolf sets up by default.

Would it make sense to just ditch ClearURLs or does it actually provide something more than what those lists give?

Hey,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to get support but I'm not sure where else to ask.
I'm running NixOs and would like to use Firedragon but I'm not sure how to build it locally. Can somebody pleas help me out?

I think it's possible to set a default bookmark, so why not a convenient bookmarklet too?
https://github.com/t-mart/kill-sticky

/usr/lib/firedragon/firedragon: /usr/lib/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by /usr/lib/firedragon/firedragon)`

The latest version in core Arch repo is however 2.33-5 and in AUR it is 2.33-2.

For some reason websites only take up around 90% of the space of the window. But I want them to take up the entire window like they would in every other web browser. How can I change it to do that. It's probably something in the about:config section, but I don't know what.

Can't login on https://gitlab.com/. Auto reloading the page every time. Tested on VPN and Normal Internet, all have same result, can't redirect to login page even on private browsing mode. I think problem on firedragon special settings, which creates this issue. Other Firefox, Chromium browser works fine. Please solve this problem.

Thanks & Regards

Firedragon is defaulting pref browser.contentblocking.category to custom instead of the value listed in the cfg file, strict. Manually setting the pref causes it to revert back to custom on browser restart.

Tested on Garuda Linux using Firedragon package from the Chaotic AUR.

I'm trying to use web.whatsapp.com beta in FireDragon. Problem is, no matter what I do, the website crashes 5 to 10 minutes after first opening it. The error message below is shown, then when I click ok I get logged out of the website and retrying login leads to the same result.

(Translation: "There's not enough storage space in your system for WhatsApp to work. Delete some unused files to free up space in your computer then try logging in again." - I couldn't get this cursed website to show up in english no matter what I did, I guess it looks up your IP address and not your system locale. Talk about annoying.)

What I've tried so far, to no avail:

• Permitting everything WhatsApp could possibly ask for
• Turning off fingerprinting block in security options
• Turning off Enhanced Tracking Protection
• Turning off DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials
• Turning off Dark Reader
• Turning on vanilla Firefox sync
• Turning on DRM
• Changing general.useragent.override to mimick the latest Firefox release

Strangest of all is that the problem is nowhere to be seen in LibreWolf or vanilla Firefox. So it must be something related to FireDragon's modifications. I really didn't want to change browsers, as I'm liking this so far.

Any ideas? Thanks!

I had issues with canvas being blocked so I set "privacy.resistFingerprinting" to false to disable it but it breaks previously working websites such as google.com giving me "unsupported version".

Hey there,
I've noticed a bug that's driving me crazy: Whenever I'm using the microphone via https://app.schildi.chat, Firedragon just completely slows down and clicking on a tab and interacting with websites is very slow (I click on a tab, the url changes and 10 seconds later the website appears...) - One cpu core is always at 80% while this is happening
I have verified the problem to exist on https://senfcall.de as well.
Why is this happening - I'm so confused.
Thanks!

There is an extra / in the file path for the Overrides file at the bottom of firedragon.cfg. This is causing the path to include the literal string profile_directory instead of inserting the user's home directory path.

See: https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/settings/-/blob/master/librewolf.cfg

I'm not sure why, but this locks up the browser in a redirect loop. Be careful opening it. Works fine in Firefox, Chrome, Chrome Beta, Chrome Unstable, Chromium, but NOT on LibreWolf. Maybe a problem upstream.

Since yesterday I began getting "This video format is not supported" error (Arch based distribution), paired with a notification "To play video you may need to install the required video codecs" appearing under the address bar. Youtube videos would play fine, but videos streamed from google drive and gifs would not. This was odd considering I had latest ffmpeg installed (2:5.0-4). I reinstalled firedragon, then gave librewolf a try--same thing. I was about to install firefox but then noticed that with it came an "ffmpeg4.4" dependency.

tl,dr: Installing ffmpeg4.4 resolved the video playback issue for me. Hope it helps whoever else should run into it.

firedragon-hg is failing to launch after being installed. The error below appears when being launched. Application was installed from the Chaotic AUR.

Netscape.cfg/AutoConfig failed. Please contact your system administrator.

Create a new email account on https://godaddy.com/ and you see, that it wont let you.

I tried this in troubleshooting/safe mode, mind you. All extensions disabled.

1.) Go on the page, pick some domain and succeed to the cart.
2.) Hit "Continue email" and follow the instructions.
3.) GoDaddy wont let you go further than this.

Tried on Google Chrome. Works.

Every time there's an update the theme gets switched to Sweet Dark. Something's gotta be done about that for those of us who prefer classic Dark... or any other theme I guess.

Hi, a recent update from chaotic aur (105.0.3-1) has caused fonts to behave very weirdly such that they are extremely blurry. Can confirm this does not happen with firefox, librewolf, or tor browser so this appears to be a firedragon specific issue.

Thanks

Edit: For clarification, fonts look pixelated.

There is no reason to enable webgl1 and not webgl2.

This is likely an oversight from "reverting" Librewolf's stricter changes. It's line 543 of the default firedragon.cfg you are shipping.

It should be moved into firedragon.overrides.cfg instead, next to the standard webgl.disabled pref.

This page gives a solution for Firefox, but does not work for Firedragon as there is no such a 'pocket' icon exist. Is there a way to disable it?

The login fails in FireDragon, and it works in Chrome.
Says it is SSL related.

https://www.ea.com/ (Top right button for the account login)

Don't know what else to include here.

I enabled DRM here:

That didnt help. Yes, Widewine is enabled (by default)

Then, I changed the override file. It was still set to false.

It still did not enable Netflix play. Any other ideas? (Works on Chrome)

I uncheck it in preferences but it literally does nothing to the search suggestions. After I reopen about:preferences they are yet again checked. I do not want search suggestions. If I want to search something I will go to google.com by typing google.com. I only want my history as context helper in address bar.

If I check the Query OCSP responder servers to confirm the current validity of certificates option it fails to save the setting and reverts.

Hi there,

firedragon_98.0.2-3

Since it isn't the 1st time I see this typo I am opening an issue this time so it can be addressed for future releases. :)

When you open Firedragon and open Settings from the hamburger menu, you are greeted on the left-hand side with this funny typo, proof that Firedragon is a fork of Librewolf. lolll :)

I have seen improvements in the browser in the past 3 months, keep the good work!

After using MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 in /etc/enviroment to enable Wayland in Firedragon, the global menu in KDE disappears, any fix for this? Thanks in advance!

Hi!

When I right-click the search bar, the context menu is white, which looks ugly compared to the rest of the browser.

Is this fixable?
(sorry for the picture, can't screenshot the context menu with my screenshot app)

Hi there!

I have a tough one for you. :)

• Firedragon 102.0-2
• Plasma 5.25.2 w/Wayland
• AMD card using amdgpu radeon nouveau

The issue does not happen at all with original Firefox 102.0.1-1.
It also does not happen with Firedragon when using XWayland protocol, nor X11 protocol.

However when running Firedragon under Wayland Window Protocol (using MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 in envvars.conf user file - https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Firefox#Wayland and https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Environment_variables#Graphical_environment) and you go into your Youtube list of videos you have tagged for later viewing, when you right-click on the video title most of the time, but not ALL the time, the Plasma contextual menu disappears as soon as your mouse pointer navigates within the menu, so that no selection can be toggled, not even the 1st one on top.

I found out this seems to happen mostly on the videos listed at the end of the list shown on screen, but I can also make it break on videos at the top of the list on screen, although much less often.
It does not happen in any other Youtube pages.

That's a very weird one and I have totally no idea what data to provide for troubleshooting. :(
However I know there's a trick with Firedragon and KDE Integration so maybe it lies somewhere in there...

Sure I could test Librewolf and see if it happens there too?

Thanks

I'm on garuda linux with the qtile version. Instead of youtube videos starting when I click on them, they start paused and not loaded.

Hi, it appears the chat is not working on YouTube livestreams after the latest update.
I have tried icognito aswell, same result. Works on regular Firefox and Chromium.

Steps to reproduce:

• open FireDragon
• go to any YouTube livestream

Privacy redirect is able to work to open using freetube redirect which is in its invidious settings on librewolf and firefox but not firedragon.

I opened a request with privacy redirect as well.

Hi
after the latest release, it's impossible to download fiels.
The error is this:

(firedragon:5808): Gtk-WARNING **: 18:22:34.601: Can't open portal file chooser: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop was not provided by any .service files
I tried on bot EndeavourOS & Manjaro. On Plasma and Trinity DE
I tried to downgrade xdg-desktop-portal-kde.
But it doesn't work

Thanks in advance

Integration with 1Password does not work in firedragon, but it works just fine in firefox. I cannot seem to find any reason for why it does not work. Is there a possibility some security flag or setting could be interfering with this? I really want to switch over to firedragon, but not integrating with the 1Password app is a deal-breaker.

See this:

When you click the link: https://forum.garudalinux.org/c/issues-assistance/firedragon-browser-support/47drm-content

Is there any reason why I can log into twitch with other browsers but not this browser?

I dont want to use dark mode
I dont want to use garudalinux search, I disabled them but after update they came back

Hi, I'm the developer of "AM" Application Manager, you know me because I've developed Arch-Deployer too. This is the script I wrote for Firedragon. I get this error when I launch the program:

firedragon: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by firedragon)

this issue is due to the too new GLIBC version, only available on Arch Linux and other rolling release GNU/Linux distributions. I am on "Debian Testing/Unstable", GLIBC version 2.33.

This is the last commit on the installation script I wrote ivan-hc/AM@73fdf08

Hi!
I was wondering if there are any plans to bring prebuilt binaries to the AUR? Something like firedragon-bin. I would rather not add chaotic aur to my repository list (it also requires multilib which i would not prefer) and compiling on my system is not entirely suitable either.
Thanks =)

I fiund one spot in the General settings under Language and Appearance (Website appearance) where it still says "LibreWolf" instead of FireDragon.

Hi.

I am delighted, that you setup your own Firefox sync.

I have all my data - from about 5 years using Firefox - on my regular account.
How to transfer this over?

And I also use Firefox on my phone, and there is also no Garuda browser yet.

So first, I cannot get my data to Geruda in the first place, and even if I could, I would not be able to sync it with my phone.

Is there some way to use the regular sync, with all the improvements, that FireDragon brings?

Hey!

I am currently trying to restore sync functionality but with no success. I created a ~/.firedragon/firedragon.overrides.cfg file and added:

unlockPref("identity.fxaccounts.enabled","");
pref("identity.fxaccounts.enabled",true);

unlockPref("identity.sync.tokenserver.uri", "");
pref("identity.sync.tokenserver.uri", "https://<privateURI>/token/1.0/sync/1.5")

After restarting FireDragon I have the "Sign In" Button back, but nothing happens after I log in. What am I missing here?

See this link: https://accounts.ea.com/

It leads, at least now and for me, to a SSL certification page:

And if I click this link, that is the page I get to:
https://forum.garudalinux.org/c/issues-assistance/firedragon-browser-support/47connection-not-secure

Not really an issue, but is there any way you could add documentation on how to install this on a distro that does not have it pre installed? I really like the aesthetics of the browser, but due to hardware limitations cannot switch over to Garuda.

Thanks.

Just experienced this multiple times in Google Meet. The website recognized my microphone (a condenser mic connected through a 3.5mm-to-USB interface) normally, however no sound was detected no matter what I did.

Thought the problem was with Meet, but I then tested my mic in Vocaroo and it couldn't capture any audio either, despite recognizing my mic as always.

Both websites have all the required permissions to use my mic.

All other applications in my system receives my mic's sound normally, so it can't be a hardware problem. You can see Audacity recording at the same time as I try to use Meet in the screenshot below.

The bug does not happen in LibreWolf nor vanilla Firefox.

I recently got a Steam Deck and would like to have Firedragon there over Firefox/Librewolf mostly due to the better KDE integration, could either you offer builds on Flathub or I'm fine with setting up additional remotes? I really only asking because I'd prefer getting all of my non-Steam software through Flatpak remotes on my deck than elsewhere.

Here are the logs.

Can provide more If required but I thought these were the root of the problem

Found a bug that's making YouTube unusable in version 100.0.1-1. Downgrading to 100.0-2 solved the issue entirely.

Youtube tabs keep crashing when performing the following actions:

• Hovering a video's title or thumbnail. Doesn't happen with some videos, for some reason, but happens with the vast majority
• Clicking a video's title or thumbnail
• Clicking the notifications icon (the bell besides your user photo in the top right corner)

At first I thought it was some extension I use, like CanvasBlocker or Enhancer for Youtube. But even after disabling all my extensions, this still happens consistently.

Here is the console output when the crash happens:

Gtk-Message: 12:58:18.418: Failed to load module ""canberra-gtk-module"

All I did here was open Firedragon, let a YT video page load, select some comments' text, like some comments, then hover some videos in the recommendations section. Only when I hovered the third video the crash happened. Then I restored the tab and repeated the same steps, and it crashed again. I was logged in, too.

Operating System: Garuda Linux
FireDragon (and LibreWolf) Version: 100.0

When I disable ResistFingerprinting in a new profile, Dark Reader is stuck loading, and i get this error running FireDragon in a terminal when I try opening Dark Reader:
Extension error: TypeError: (destructured parameter) is undefined moz-extension://46aac3b1-3fe1-4ee3-bb4d-905050a2883e/ui/popup/index.js 1258 [[Exception stack sendRequest/</<@moz-extension://46aac3b1-3fe1-4ee3-bb4d-905050a2883e/ui/popup/index.js:1258:60 Current stack applySafeWithoutClone@resource://gre/modules/ExtensionCommon.jsm:698:13 wrapPromise/<@resource://gre/modules/ExtensionCommon.jsm:878:22 ]]

In addition, the Addons Store doesn't see me using Firefox, prompting me to download it, when ResistFingerprinting is disabled.

Dark Reader then works upon enabling it again, as well as the addons store working properly.

In a pre-existing profile, I can't get Dark Reader to work again after enabling ResistFingerprinting.

I get this running the profile in a terminal upon opening Dark Reader:
[[Exception stack sendRequest/</<@moz-extension://9e522971-a340-439b-a28f-43ae6b2f3d48/ui/popup/index.js:1258:60 Current stack applySafeWithoutClone@resource://gre/modules/ExtensionCommon.jsm:698:13 wrapPromise/<@resource://gre/modules/ExtensionCommon.jsm:878:22 ]]

I have tested both issues in LibreWolf, and these aren't issues there.
