Earlier this week, our local IT expert informed us that while Firefox would still be available, it will have no further development. I am looking at updating my Windows systems to Win11 and would like to know if this is true?

I don't know if it is the last update, but since this week the scrolling menu on numerous website on firefox become messed up and instead having their usual limited height (like no more than 400px) when there are numerous links in the menu, they now reach the bottom of the windows.

I added some image to explain the problem with two sites: one screenshot show firefox bug, and the other is a screenshot (from edge) to show how the scrolling menu with limited height was supposed to be before the bug.

Also the problem appear even in the debug mode, so i doubt it is an extension trouble. How to solve this problem?

I maintain a website that I update on a regular basis. For the past month, none of the updates have shown up in Firefox. I've refreshed the page, cleared the cache, logged out and logged back in. Nothing has helped. With other browsers, there's no problem -- Chrome, Opera and Safari all show the website updates as soon as I post them. I'm using Firefox 122.0.1 (64-bit) on MacOS Sonoma 14.2.1 (MacBook Pro 14-inch 2023). The website uses WordPress, hosted by DreamHost. I have two other WordPress websites, both hosted by WordPress, and Firefox is showing updates with no problem. I'm querying DreamHost on this as well, but I suspect they'll must say it's a Firefox problem.

Firefox keeps crashing randomly, sometimes at startup, and sometimes just in the middle of a session. Sometimes just one tab will crash, and other times it'll be the entire browser. I ran it in troubleshoot mode and it still crashed, so it's not caused by an extension or anything. It never used to do this before and I don't understand what's causing this issue.

I keep getting rerouted to a malicious McAfee Antivirus software page stating my computer has 5 viruses and my Mcafee subscription has expired, etc. I don't have that software & NEVER plan to use it. How do I block the URL from loading? This should be SIMPLE in the Mozilla settings, can't find anything regarding web filters or page blocking.

Hello; so, my brother lend me his old laptop, clean. I signed in firefox with my account and explore normally. One day, he need it back a couple days so he can work while he repairs his main machine. Log off of my account and log on in his. Now my bookmarks, historial, loggins, etc appear in his session. We think that can not be possible with separate accounts with different associated e-mail and passwords, but here we are.

There is a way to separate my things from his account? It only happens to him, i don't have in my browser his data. Thanks

I have checked setting, to which I switched around to try and troubleshoot. This did not work. I ended up downloading another browser and the file downloaded no issue. Why is this happening? Ant help is greatly appreciated!

In regular web pages, I'm able to hover over an URL / picture w/ URL behind it, etc.... It shows up on the status bar at the bottom of the page (that's what it used to be called). Sometimes I can't.

Somewhere around the same time as I started noticing this, I had just upgraded to a Win11 computer. So, when I try to hover over a suspicious link, I get nothing!

Is there code these people can put in that shields them from hover? So, we can't see what we're getting into? If so, then I presume if I can't hover, don't click... Right?

TIA

We use primarily Thunderbird and Firefox (latest versions). Everything works normally except a site from Constant Contact (that tracks when a customer/client opens or clicks on an email. We normally use uBlock and the problem occurs with and without that extension installed. I'm stumped. Thanks for any helpful you can provide.

Why is it that after the latest update, Pocket returns every time I boot the browser, across all of my devices? This cannot be a coincidence. I am literally having to disable it every time. Mozilla, if you are smart, you will choose not to go in the direction of Google. You already don't have much of a user base and you don't want to lose what you do have left. This is disappointing and you've pretty much guaranteed I'm not using Firefox anymore.

I no longer see a preview of photos on Google Photos on the new version of Firefox (122.0.1) in either the main window (see first image), or the file itself (see second image with broken file icon). In the latter I just get a spinning wheel. Do I need to change a setting in Firefox?
