"In the next few days, we will start the Nightly experiment which provides easy access to AI services from the sidebar. This functionality is entirely optional, and it’s there to see if it’s a helpful addition to Firefox. It is not built into any core functionality and needs to be turned on by you to see it.
If you want to try the experiment, activate it via Nightly Settings \> Nightly Experiments (please see full instructions here).

Please follow the instructions in the linked article.

Mozilla backtracking on private window changes after uproar
There used to be an option called browser.privateWindowSeparation.enabled, which ever since Firefox 106 back in October 2022 resulted in separate taskbar icons for normal and private Firefox windows. In version 127, this option has gone away, removed in this code change. Users complained on Mozilla's forums and on Reddit at the time, but it was at least possible to recombine the icons with the option in about:config – but no longer.
As you might imagine, people are not happy, although according to the official response in this complaint, it looks like the change will be reverted in Firefox 128...

Mozilla has fixed a playback issue on YouTube that affected some Firefox users for several months.
Some Firefox users noticed playback issues on YouTube for several months. These affected high resolution videos only, from 1080p and up. To make matters worse, no clear pattern could be identified.
Some videos played fine, others would stop abruptly when they ran out of buffer.

Nice. I would suggest:
- Add more honey or syrup. You can apply honey several times throughout the cooking
- Add more charring by cooking in very high heat the last 10 minutes
Adding to what I said...
Back in 2012, I had the very first Google Nexus Tablet called the Nexus 7. It became extremely slow after a few months that it was unusable. Turned out it was a widespread issue. It was a design flaw that could not be fixed via software update:

Two decades later, Google still release defective hardware without proper testing during the design phase.
Good thing - Google is willing to support devices with defects/design flaws
Bad thing - Google keeps releasing devices with defects/design flaws
I hope it is optional. Otherwise it makes sideloading more cumbersome for power users.
