This is only nice-to-have but I thought I should note it here too. I sometimes find myself looking into the browsing history to find out when I visited a certain page the last time for curiosity.

The suggestions that appear under the URL bar when typing something should also include when the user visited the page the last time.

A behaviour inherited from Firefox is that the "Del" key immediately deletes items from history. This can happen accidentally. I recommend that LibreWolf shows a warning before that.

This is something I thought Mozilla would eventually fix, but still hasn't in over a decade.

When clicking a target="_blank" link that opens in a new tab, the URL bar shows "about:blank" until the server responds.

Also, document.location.href in the console returns "about:blank" instead of the real URL. This is annoying for user scripts.

It would be better if it immediately showed the target URL. document.location.href also should immediately return the correct URL.

After right clicking a file in the list of downloaded file, an option I have been wishing for a long time is "copy path to file to the clipboard".

By that I mean the local path where the file is saved. The source URL can already be copied.

Currently, LibreWolf (like Firefox) only shows a request in the devtools after it is completed. If it fails because the server does not respond, it shows "No payload for this request".

It would be better if it showed the payload that it tried to send, even if it was unsuccessful.

In 2022, Mozilla replaced their performance analysis tool (screenshot source) with an externally dependent tool called "Firefox Profiler". It is not integrated in Firefox but depends on an external web app, which is bad.

Please bring back the original "Performance" tool in the developer tools.

Please add something like browser.privatebrowsing.forceMediaMemoryCache for normal browsing (non-private).

Video caching to disk adds gigabytes of needless wear every day to SSDs and live USB sticks, and modern computers have large RAM storage anyway.

This is the same reason Mozilla chose to compress json sessionstore backups. (But video is already compressed so it can not be compressed any further with lz4 or gzip.)

Pictures should be expanded by default on the post page because they provide important context for the post, so anyone who comments should have seen it first anyway.

It is already possible to limit search to a single community, but a search bar above the post list would be faster and more convenient.

This concept screenshot shows how it could be done.

Currently, URLs to posts have this format:

lemmy.ml/post/[number]

I suggest changing it to this so people can see the community immediately in shared URLs:

lemmy.ml/c/[community-name]/[post-number]

browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent is a treasure inside about:config of Firefox (and LibreWolf for that matter). Instead of opening new tabs at the end, it opens them right next to the current tab so you can go back to the last tab instantly without scrolling through a long tab list! I believe this should be the default behaviour in every browser.

Unfortunately, too few users are aware it even exists.

I suggest you add this as a checkbox in the graphical about:preferences menu.

The link above says form history is disabled:

Disable search and form history.

Before I bother installing LibreWolf, I would like to know whether the form history can be activated manually. I think it is very helpful and saves time.

It is stored only locally anyway, so it doesn't violate privacy like telemetry and add-on signing to. If my data was stolen, I would have much greater things to worry about anyway.
