Mozilla Firefox 159.0

New

• Sharing on macOS now uses the native macOS share picker, which shows a preview of the page and recent contacts alongside AirDrop, Messages, and other apps. Several selected tabs can also be shared at once.
  
• Saved passwords are now available from the sidebar by default, without having to add the Passwords tool first.
  
• Smart Window can now watch pages for changes such as price drops or restocks. Type /watch in the chat to set one up, and Firefox sends a desktop notification when it finds a match. Watches can be managed from the Tasks button in the toolbar or the about:smartwindowtasks page.

Changed

• On macOS, apps that sign in through the default browser, such as ChatGPT, now open their sign-in page in Firefox instead of Safari when Firefox is the default browser.
• The AI chatbot’s Summarize page option now sends the page’s address to the chatbot provider instead of the page’s text, so long pages are no longer cut short to a partial summary.
• Open tabs can now be searched with a keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+A on Windows and Linux, Cmd+Shift+A on macOS. The Extensions and Themes shortcut is now Ctrl+Shift+F on Windows and Linux, and Cmd+Shift+E on macOS. These shortcuts can be changed in about:keyboard.
• Web addresses written in the Javanese, Balinese, Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics, and N’Ko scripts are now displayed in their own script instead of as encoded "xn--" text.

Fixed

• Fixed the file upload dialog opening in the last folder a file was saved to, such as Downloads, instead of the folder last used for uploads.
• Fixed memory usage growing rapidly when sites such as the Zoom web app were left open in a minimized window.
• Fixed some videos displaying incorrectly on Windows when NVIDIA RTX Video HDR is enabled.
• Fixed bookmarks not being imported from Google Chrome profiles that are signed in to a Google account.
• Fixed the Replace button in Apple Writing Tools on macOS inserting the clipboard contents instead of the rewritten text on some sites, such as Gmail.
• Fixed long drop-down lists on web pages sometimes showing blank space in place of the last options until the list was scrolled.
• Fixed some sites, such as Slack, failing to load instead of falling back to HTTP/2 when the site rejected an HTTP/3 request.
• Fixed Firefox using excessive memory on Linux with AMD graphics when viewing map or place results on sites such as ChatGPT.
• Fixed quick gamepad button presses sometimes being missed in web games on macOS.
• Fixed tabs sometimes detaching into a new window when clicked on Linux with Wayland.
• Fixed menus and panels fading in on Windows and Linux when animation effects are turned off in the operating system.
• Various security fixes.

Web Plateform

• Firefox now supports scroll-driven animations, so CSS animations and Web Animations API animations can progress with the scroll position of a container or with an element’s visibility as it scrolls into view. This adds the animation-timeline, scroll-timeline, view-timeline, and animation-range properties and the ScrollTimeline and ViewTimeline interfaces.
• Firefox now supports scoped custom element registries. A registry created with the CustomElementRegistry() constructor is separate from the global window.customElements registry, so custom elements that share a tag name can coexist on the same page.
• On compatible devices, WebGL now supports the EXT_clip_control and EXT_texture_mirror_clamp_to_edge extensions and WebGL 2 supports EXT_texture_norm16.
• The Sanitizer API now sanitizes HTML as it is parsed rather than afterwards, so custom element constructors no longer run for elements the sanitizer removes.

Developer

• The Web Console now allows let, const, and class variables to be declared again, so a snippet can be edited and re-run without a redeclaration error.
