How can I sync only one bookmarks folder across Firefox profiles and accounts, with their smart keywords?

If you don’t know about smart keywords, basically you can set phrases as shortcuts for specific bookmarks. I want a folder with all of my keywords synced, and that folder only. On each profile or account I have have whatever other folders and the placement of the folder with the keywords doesn’t matter as long as they have...

Let me clarify: I want to see "lemmy" in the URL bar if I search it and can copy it instead of https://www.google.com/search?q=lemmy

Apparently I wasn’t clear enough in my other post. When I focus on the URL bar on a search page with either CMD L or by clicking it, I want to be able to just copy the phrase “lemmy” instead of having to select the text from www.google.com/search?q=lemmy. If I type search queries with spaces in them, the spaces are...

How can I show search querys in the URL bar instead of URLs? (and for all search engines, including custom ones)

I often do searches with multiple search engines and extras with the same query but with site:reddit.com added at the end. Being able to press CMD L to focus the URL bar, and then CMD C with all the text selected would make things a lot faster. This was added months ago to Firefox but it looks like it was removed now.

Why does double clicking a video make it fullscreen?

I found the flag to disable it, but I’m really curious why the decision was made in the first place. On Chrome and Firefox, l If you double click this example HTML5 : www.w3schools.com/html/html5_video.asp, it will go full screen. I’ve always wondered why sometimes click on a video would make it go fullscreen, it’s laggy...

Has anyone been able to edit the search engine prefs file (search.json.mozlz4) in the profile folder and keep the changes?

I found that all search engines in Firefox, default and user-added, are stored in the search.json.mozlz4 file in the root of your profile folder. I used this software to decompress it: https://github.com/jusw85/mozlz4 (I compiled it on macOS with cargo build). I tried looking up what each JSON property means but didn’t find...

Can I add a custom search engine *with* query autocomplete / search suggestions?

By default I use Google and it shows search suggestions, but when I add a custom search engine like https://www.google.com/search?q=, or a completely different one, I don’t get any. I don’t really care where the suggestions are coming from, they could be the same as the one for the default engine.

Is it possible to select multiple tabs: the current tab and tabs to the left or right, using just the keyboard? (no mouse at all)

I’m trying to use my keyboard more since doing things with a mouse or trackpad is more time consuming. I’d like something like: pressing Control Shift Alt > to select the tab to the right (along with the current tab), and press it again to select the tab to the right of that, making it three tabs selected. Same thing with...

How can I select an individual bookmarks folder and delete all the duplicate bookmarks in it?

I’d like an addon where I can right click on a folder and see a context menu item to delete all the duplicate bookmarks in it. The only addons I’ve found have their own pages to scan all bookmarks for duplicates. I only want to delete duplicates in specific folders.
