Why did you remove my profile and all my add-ons? Strike two. Once again Firefox screwed up. A few months ago you did something similar and wiped out all my extensions. This time I lost all my bookmarks, passwords, and add-ons (extensions) and you set my Firefox to automatically update and a lot of other preferences were reset. One more like this and it will be strike 3 and I'll do whatever I can from then on to cause Firefox and its developers to wish they had not screwed up a browser that was working just fine.

Hi,
I have been playing around with SVG. AndI noticed a small bug.
The problem occurs when using text as a mask.
It seems the stroke on the text does not line up with the mask. If you turn on of bold the difference becomes more noticeable.
I have attached a couple of screen shots to show the problem. The first is from Chrome which looks as expected. The second is in Firefox.
The code is below which can be used with codepen.
CSS:
.container {
background-color: #1EAEDB;
}
text.labelRobin {
font-family: "Droid Sans", sans-serif;
fill: black;
font-size: 8px;
font-weight: bolder;
}
text.labelRobin {
font-family: "Droid Sans", sans-serif;
fill: black;
font-size: 8px;
font-weight: bolder;
}
HTML:
<div class="container"> <svg viewBox="-60 -30 120 120" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <mask id="myMask"> <!-- Everything under a white pixel will be visible --> <rect id="rectMask" x="0" y="-7" width="22px" height="8px" fill="white"/> <!-- Everything under a black pixel will be invisible --> <text x="0" y="0" class="labelRobin">Robin</text> </mask> <defs> <filter id="shadow"> <feDropShadow dx="0.2" dy="0.4" stdDeviation="0.3"/> </filter> </defs> <text style="filter: url(#shadow);" x="0" y="0" class="labelRobin" stroke="white" fill-opacity="0.0" stroke-width="0.1" >Robin</text> <use xlink:href="#rectMask" mask="url(#myMask)"/> </svg> </div>

When I log into my personal website on my desktop computer, one of the functions I need to use will not load. If I login using my laptop I can load the page. I can also load the page using Safari as the browser. I use Ublock Origin on my desktop only for Firefox and not Safari, and I am on the latest Firefox version and MAC OS 10.14.6. I tried restarting Firefox with all add-ons turned off, but that didn't help.
This failure to load problem has also happened trying to load my bank account. No problem with Safari. Additionally, I have had pages load and then disappear.

Select any.text.with.a.period in it and you are given the option to navigate to the link in a new tab.or.paste.any text with a period in it into the address bar and it will try and navigate to it.
Whenever I paste text into the address bar that has periods in it with the intention to search for it , I have to enclose it in quotes so Firefox doesn't try and navigate to it.
As you can see from the attached images, in my first line here, it thinks that .period indicates a link.
But as you can see from the canonical list of top level domains available here http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt
period is not a top level domain.
And as you can see from the other image I've attached, it thinks that .any is a domain when the text "tab.or.paste.any" is pasted into the address bar with the intent to search for it. And from that same canonical list of TLDs, we can see that .any is not on it.
Tell your programmers to put in a little more effort and parse things properly please. This is damned annoying.

At work I'm using the latest Firefox (run out of my home directory, it updates) on CentOS 7. For the life of me I can't get Firefox to play many videos, such as ones on twitter here (https://twitter.com/MarkRuffalo/status/1154458756853510144). The message I get in the console is:
Cannot play media. No decoders for requested formats: video/mp4
I've already installed the following packages that I thought related: gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-gtk-1.10.4-3.el7.x86_64 gstreamer1-1.10.4-2.el7.x86_64 gstreamer1-plugins-ugly-free-1.10.4-3.el7.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-0.10.23-23.el7.x86_64 gstreamer1-plugins-base-1.10.4-2.el7.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.36-10.el7.x86_64 phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.6.3-3.el7.x86_64 gstreamer-tools-0.10.36-7.el7.x86_64 gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-1.10.4-3.el7.x86_64 gstreamer-0.10.36-7.el7.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.31-13.el7.x86_64 gstreamer1-plugins-good-1.10.4-2.el7.x86_64
I've also gone through and built ffmpeg on my own and added it to the path. Before building it I built many codec libraries as well, such as: x265, x264, opus, mp3lame, avcodec, yasm, vpx, and more. ffmpeg seems to work fine for me, and it's in my path. I also added the library output directory to my LD_LIBRARY_PATH. But Firefox still won't play these videos. Any hints as to what I might need?

I have removed Search engines I do not need. However, when I do a search (using address bar set up to do searches) I do not get a drop down box showing the engine I would like to use. I have tried using the Search window & an option appears to change Search engines but not to select the Search Engine I want to use. Also Google Maps fails to complete. The map momentarily appears & then the page goes blank. These haves only occurred since 68.0.2 upgrade.

I wanted to know as to how can I delete "only one entry" or "entries at a different point of time" of a particular web-page from the Firefox browsing-history ? Currently, to my limited knowledge, if a particular entry in the browsing-history is deleted, then all instances of that web-page are deleted from history ; e.g. if I visited a certain web-page of YouTube on 1st Jan, then again on 20th Jan, and then on 30th Mar, but wished to remove the last entry - I would right-click that entry in the "Library window" and select "delete" and that would result in all of the three visits getting wiped out. I am sure the features of "most recent visit" & "number of visits" are useful for many but like I explained before, combining all entries in one creates a bigger problem of hampering the flow of recording one's activities (even if it helps reduce RAM usage). Currently, this is one of the main problems that I face while using Firefox (for over a year) and always forces me to go back to Chrome (where extensions exist to properly manage history, but are not available for Firefox because of fundamental differences in both programs, while the current Firefox add-ons regarding history are all useless). If anyone could properly guide me out of this problem, I would be grateful. Thanks in advance.

Hello. Google and Mozilla recently blocked the government certificate in Kazakhstan. And what about Kaspersky Lab? The Kaspersky products are already banned for use in the U.S. government.
There is also information that the Kaspersky laboratory is cooperating with special services. After all, Kaspersky himself and his colleagues are former employees of the KGB high school. This is not a secret or speculation, but well-known information.
I recently installed kaspersky internet security. Then I decided to see the certificate in many browsers and saw it https://imgur.com/a/o4B0HG0
It turns out Kaspersky decrypts the traffic. It automatically installs its certificate. Root certificate. https://support.kaspersky.ru/common/compatibility/14620 Now all my data can be compromised. What is it if not MITM?
Maybe you should block this certificate like Kazakhstan?

Login to the New York Times is in a permanent loop. You login in the usual way, and the page loads without logging you in. It tries to sell me a subscription when I already have one. I have already cleared the cache and cookies and suffered having all of my websites broken by Firefox forcing us to re-login to everything on the web over and over because we have to go through the ritual of clearing cache and cookies over and over because Firefox is always malfunctioning. I have already permanently disabled "hardware acceleration" and have done all of these multiple times, numerous times. It's undoubtedly Firefox built in security devices that are causing this block. Chrome does not cause this, but there are other reasons not to use Chrome unless I have to, which is what I now have to do because of Firefox hyper-intrusive "security" software. If I could disable all the security bloat in Firefox, I would do so. It's just impossible. It does on month after month, year after year. We are prisoners of these device builders!

On Firefox (68.0.2) for Mac (OS 10.14.6): for the past month or so, most (but not all) Youtube videos give "If playback doesn’t begin shortly try restarting your device" error.
Videos play with no problem in my other browsers.
I have tried restarting in Safe Mode and the problem persists. Autoplayback is on. I also tried unchecking "Use hardware acceleration" in preferences, which had no effect (so I turned it back on). Clearing the cache has no effect.
Anyone have any thoughts?
