Firefox 145 release binaries are now available. Most notable with this release is what's not there: the 32-bit Linux builds are no more.

Most notable with Firefox 145.0 is 32-bit Linux support being dropped. Firefox 144 and Firefox 140 ESR are the last series with 32-bit Linux support so Mozilla can focus solely on 64-bit.

"Mozilla has been adding in llm & ai related features to Firefox for a while, enabling them by default without asking the user... The main problem with this is users are having this forced on them with no gui option to disable these features."

Article contains instructions for disabling the LLM through about:config.

Increasingly, businesses, schools, and government institutions deploy Firefox at scale for security, resilience, and data sovereignty. Organizations have fine-grained administrative and orchestration control of the browser’s behavior using policies with Firefox and the Extended Support Release (ESR). Today, we’re opening early access to Firefox Support for Organizations, a new program that begins operation in January 2026.

The SUMO Japanese team quits en masse, accusing Mozilla’s AI system of erasing years of community translation work.

The Japanese branch of Mozilla’s Support Mozilla (SUMO) community—responsible for localizing and maintaining Japanese-language support documentation for Firefox and other Mozilla products (consisting of Japanese native speakers)—has officially disbanded after more than two decades of voluntary work.

This is something I wanted but propriety meant I didn't ever make a bug for it, but boy I'm glad it's here. Fantastic landing!

Hi everyone, I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I’m honestly a bit exhausted trying to figure this out.

I’m looking for a way to access the curated articles that #Firefox(France) shows on the new tab page — specifically the ones from earlier this week or previous days. I’ve saved a few screenshots manually, but I’d love to find a proper method to archive or revisit them.

From what I can tell, the articles aren’t personalized — they seem to be selected daily for all users in France. The settings mention something like “Premium content selected by the Firefox family of products”, which makes me think there’s a team or system behind it.

Thanks in advance, and sorry if this is a bit messy — I’m just trying to find any solution at this point.

Oh my fucking god. I just right clicked a link to an article to open it in a new tab in Firefox and saw an option to "Ask an AI Chatbot (Z)." Fucking EW. There was thankfully an option to remove it from my context menu, but oh my fucking god, AI bros are so fucking desperate to adopt this tech en masse, I swear to god.

Let the fucking bubble burst, nobody fucking likes generative-AI and making it goddamn inescapable is not going to make us like it. Let it go the way of NFT and the metaverse like it goddamn deserves. If generative-AI was genuinely that fucking good, people would naturally adopt it like we did with computers. Companies did not have to work this hard to get people to adopt computers because their purpose and value was obvious.

And @mozilla, @firefox please for the love of god, stop adding AI features. I get you're partially funded by Google, but grow a goddamn spine and listen to your users. People do not like these features and expect better from you. Firefox is supposed to be about privacy and generative-AI is NOT good for privacy (do I even need to mention Windows Recall?) You wanna be the alternative to Google so bad, yet you do the same scummy, disliked sh!t everyone hates Google for.

The integration offers conversational, cited answers instead of traditional links and follows positive feedback from earlier tests in select markets. Perplexity will expand to mobile soon.
