Lastpass has had major data breaches in 2011, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, and two in 2022.

Today I got a recommendation to install LastPass. I was a bit surprised. LP (logmein, gotomypc) has a history of databreaches. I found reports in 2011, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, 2021, and two in 2022.

People without a lock on the door know they have no security. Putting on a lock that is not effective only gives people a false sense of security and may even increase the threat.

I love many of the add-ons. I know I can't rely on anyone to make sure they are all secure, but I hope such well-publicized problems will result in a review.

The billions lost and hundreds of hours spent by people each year with passwords in our fight with hackers is a true drain and a danger. Password programs have been the only way for individuals to survive. Their standards for security must be even higher than others. LastPass has not met the standard for a high level of security...or even a low level.]

LastPass has one reason for existing--keeping our passwords safe and secure. In the light of their failure, it's time to stop recommending them. It undermines the credibility of Mozilla and Firefox.

Unknown to me 301.0 was installed on Windows 10 computer this AM. When I tried to open Firefox to home page the "picture" of the window was enormous. Screen captured only a small portion of normal display. How do I get back to a normal sized window. Happens only with Firefox...no other programs.

Attached is a picture I took of what I'm experiencing. At first I thought it was an issue with my monitor or perhaps my computer hardware, but it seems to only affect Firefox. Besides the obvious black squares you can see, I invite you to look at the top of the page displayed. Where it talks about Megan thee stallion, the "a" and "n" of "Megan" are kind of cut off by something.

I also experienced twice, maybe three times the whole page going blank for a second or so before returning to normal (not my whole screen, just the firefox browser). I just checked and Firefox is up to date.

I don't know if this is relevant, but I also checked Windows Defender and saw it had detected a threat, named Win32/OfferCore. I have since deleted it and have started a complete analysis of my computer which is still underway.

My OS is Windows 10. I hope this can be resolved, as currently it is stopping me from being able to read an article on Wikipedia, with many of the letters being kind of cut in the same fashion as with "Megan".


Thanks for any help, it'll be appreciated

Hey, I just installed windows + firefox on a new computer recently. The first time I tried to print a pdf from this computer via firefox (as windows does not allow pdf printing by default) and the print preview pops up with the loading symbol and just... never loads. Ever. I tried to switch to the default system dialogue via about:config and print.prefer_system_dialogue and setting it to true, but when I did that firefox just crashed every time I tried to print. I'd appreciate any help, as everything online in regards to this issue doesn't seem to help me at all.

Hello,

I've identified a 1-2 seconds jank when I open a page containing a .webm player. This was a trial and error kind of thing but eventually, I realized that was the common pattern among the pages that were giving problems.

I ran the profiler and it's very clearly visible when the problem arises but here my knowledge of Firefox and its tooling falls short and I don't know how to find the root cause of the issue, that probably is not an extension since it appears on different Firefox accounts and in incognito mode.

Frequent crashes (FD exhaustion?) in Firefox 107 & 108 (via snap) on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS

For the past month or so, I've been experiencing frequent Firefox crashes.

They most often happen when I've just opened a page in a new tab, it's painted, and I make the first input trying to interact with it: all tabs will stay rendered and viewable, but otherwise unresponsive. But now they're also happening when Firefox is in the background. The frequency is about once or twice per day, with heavy use.

I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS (jammy) with all packages up to date, the linux-oem-22.04 kernel package (currently 5.17.0-1025-oem), and Firefox installed via snap. The crash reports contain full details, of course, but the only thing I can think of that's especially "unusual" is that the 1Password extension has been misbehaving for a while (but it's been since long before these crashes began).

My system has 64GB of RAM, which is rarely more than 15% in use.

The only maybe-relevant Bugzilla bug I've found so far is: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1685642

Hello,

recently i've bought a new microsoft surface studio laptop and i noticed that when i am watching something on youtube, netflix or any other platform the video (sound is ok) is freezing after 9-10 sec of watching. I checked my componetns, temperatures, but then i tried another browser - google chrome. It worked smoothly. I use firefox since 2013 and i love it, but now I am considering switching to a different browser, because something is wrong here and it's not a hardware problem but rather a software issue, which is obviously firefox here... I am open for any advices on how to fix this freezing problem and just to be clear: i really don't want to change my browser... i like it :(

I was forced to upgrade when FF crashed the other day, and now all of my windows are sorted alphabetically. This was exactly the behaviour that caused me to switch from Chrome to FF in the first place. I *HATE* having my windows sorted alphabetically. I have certain windows that remain open all the time, and they remain at the top of my Window menu drop-down, for easy access. (Hence, chronological by when the window opened, the old default behaviour.) Now, FF "helpfully" changes the window position every time I change tabs, and I can't find anything. I mentally sort windows by subject matter, not by the name displayed on the tab. I have tens of windows (20-30 typically) open at any given time. This makes it literally impossible to use the Window menu anymore, and I have to tab through open windows searching for what I need.

Mozilla, please make this a configurable option. It was really horrible of you to enforce this on us, just because some squeaky-wheels decided they preferred alphabetical sorting. They clearly are not power users, and this change has crippled those of us who are.
