Hi r/firefox 👋,

The address bar is one of the most prominent areas in any browser, and Firefox is no exception. Understanding its importance, the Firefox team has been working on a set of complementary features designed to improve discoverability and security of the Firefox address bar.

With this set of features landing in Firefox Beta 135, we need your expertise to help us test these enhancements by participating in this campaign, which will be live on January 9th!

The top 5 contributors will each receive a $50 voucher to shop at Mozilla’s swag stores as a thank-you for your efforts.

Have any questions about this campaign? Join us on Matrix or comment down below!

    The search term persistence is nice, when you want to change what you searched for, e.g. add another word to narrow it down more. It’s been the behavior on mobile for a while, and I was skeptical at first, too, but you just really don’t need to see the URL of your search engine. Well, unless you’re trying to add it to the browser, but at that point, the search term persistence won’t yet happen.
