Hello, I installed the Firefox 158.8 update on my iMac (macOS Sequoia 15.8.1) today. All websites are working as usual, except for Amazon Prime Video; it loads once and then freezes. I can't perform any actions on the page—everything remains unresponsive. I can't enter a different URL in the address bar or reload the page, either. The only thing I can do is close the page. I’ve cleared the cache and disabled ad blockers, but nothing changes. Strangely, this doesn't happen with Firefox on my MacBook. What could the problem be?

After a 10/20/26 update I cannot sign into my credit union through Firefox. I can sign in using Flex and other search engines. Why???

I'm on desktop. I clicked on what turned out to be a YouTube mobile link and now my Firefox desktop browser will only load the mobile version of YouTube. I tried several standard troubleshooting steps, including clearing history, cookies, and site data, disabling all extensions, and checking about:config for a user-agent override, none of which resolved the issue. YouTube has loaded correctly in a private window. It also loads correctly when I created a new firefox profile. I'm assuming the original profile is corrupted in some way. Is this the correct answer? Is there any way to fix it?

I frequently use textareas to edit text files on a server. Often, after saving the form, I discover a need for further editing, like a misspelling or something omitted, Previous FF versions, after hitting the back button, placed the cursor where I last edited. Now version 158 puts the cursor at the top, requiring a search for the mistake, like Chrome (another reason not to use it). Bug or feature? Is there some workaround or will I have to revert to version 157?

Until recent updates gmail worked normally but over the last several updates the screen is now impossible to read. In Safari gmail is still readable, This seems like a settings problem or a bug. Does anyone know if others are having the same problem or how to try to fix it,, or report it?
