Are you a locale leader and want us to include new members in our upcoming reports? Contact us!<\/a><\/p>\n Persian (fa) is now enabled on addons.mozilla.org (AMO). Congratulations and thank you to the Persian localization community for reaching 100% on both AMO projects in Pontoon.<\/p>\n In upcoming versions of Firefox, there will be a number of updates focused making the privacy protection features of Firefox felt by the user, in addition to communicating those features in an easy to understand way. Translation has been ongoing and some of these will be released from Firefox 159.<\/p>\n Private Window redesign<\/b><\/p>\n A redesigned Private Window experience when opening a new Private Window will be rolled out in an experiment to users starting in Firefox 159, but can be viewed by opening about:config and setting the browser.privateWindowRedesign.enabled flag to true, then opening a new Private Window.<\/p>\n Fire button in Classic Mode<\/b><\/p>\n A button that allows users to start fresh in a browsing session, they can clear browsing data in a single click. Strings for this will mostly involve updated wording for existing strings around what data to clear. This is one of many features mentioned in the Firefox roadmap<\/a>.<\/p>\n Privacy Panel<\/b><\/p>\n The privacy panel that shows your protection status for a website (accessible by clicking the shield icon in your address bar) will be getting a complete redesign to more prominently display the number of trackers blocked, important security warnings, and critical site issues. This is still in progress but expect to see strings soon.<\/p>\n An early version of this feature is coming up in Firefox 160 and strings are landing now. The Mini Window gives you the ability to detach a tab or custom section into an always-on-top, scaled-down frame. It expands on the familiar Picture-in-Picture functionality for general web content, making it effortless to keep documentation, messaging apps, or references visible as you work. You can find additional details and a demo of Mini Window on Mozilla Connect<\/a>.<\/p>\n With our recent switch to releases in 2-week cadence, mobile will see a slew of small but mighty features pop-up in short succession. Some of the recently launched or soon-to-be revealed features include:<\/p>\n Firefox for Android<\/b><\/p>\n Firefox for iOS<\/b><\/p>\n Firefox Enterprise is here! It launched on October 13 alongside Firefox 158: Firefox with enterprise controls and a management console that organizations run on their own infrastructure. Read the announcement<\/a> and explore the website<\/a>.<\/p>\n The launch starts in France, Germany, Austria and Switzerland, so the website is live in English, French and German. Our translation agency handled these pages, so you won\u2019t find them in Pontoon. Thank you to everyone who has helped with firefox.com so far. If you\u2019re curious about how localization works for firefox.com and Firefox Enterprise, or have thoughts on it, you\u2019re always welcome to get in touch.<\/p>\n Strings for the main firefox.com website continue to land in the firefox.com project in Pontoon, for the locales that have it enabled.<\/p>\n Semantic search is now live! It was officially launched with Kitsune 1.8.0<\/a> on October 6, 2026. This initial rollout is limited to Knowledge Base articles, with broader search improvements still to come. A big thank-you to everyone who participated in the testing phase<\/a> and helped us improve the experience!<\/p>\n Dark mode is coming to SUMO! You can get an early look by watching the demo in the previous Monthly Community Call<\/a> or you can also try it yourself on our staging site<\/a>.<\/p>\n Monthly health reports.<\/b> Following the Community Health Score introduced in the August report<\/a>, teams can now opt into a monthly health report<\/a>, delivered as both an email and an in-app notification, with a new toggle in contributor settings. The feature was developed by our intern Jamie (functionzz<\/a>).<\/p>\n Editor and Machinery.<\/b> The editor can autofill from composed Machinery matches, the 100% match indicator moved into the editor menu, and leaving an autofilled 100% TM match no longer triggers an unsaved-changes warning.<\/p>\n New contributors.<\/b> We’re happy to welcome another group of contributors who made their first patches to Pontoon in the past few months: baha-bouali<\/a> (6 patches), scottcampbelldata<\/a> (4), tahakotil<\/a> (2), nyomanjyotisa<\/a> (2), kwy404<\/a> (2), annki<\/a>, Goudarz<\/a>, Hanabi9248<\/a>, HarshRajSinghania<\/a>, and MaxFreedomPollard<\/a>. Their work spans terminology, search and dropdown behavior, the API, plural handling, theming, insights, right-to-left support, and documentation \u2014 thank you all!<\/p>\n Image by Elio Qoshi<\/p><\/div>\n Know someone in your l10n community who\u2019s been doing a great job and should appear here?
