I'm curious what sort of twisted soul thought ignoring the user's configured start page(s) and displaying a pile of worthless crap telling us how great Firefox is supposed to be, was a good idea. Especially the [unprintable] clown who decided to add this "feature" in an update without providing any information, explanation, or opportunity to opt out.
And, then hiding the information about how to turn this garbage off several pages down is just adding insult to injury.
Guess what, folks, Chrome is looking better and better here.
At least Chrome and Opera both have autofill that actually works properly - including recognizing fields in online forms, while the autofill in Firefox hasn't worked even close to as well for about a year now.
But at least now I know what the developers have been working on that kept them too busy to fix existing bugs -- they were busy inventing a new way to drive users away from Firefox.
Yes, I am venting.
I wasn't quite this annoyed when I first came here, but then I had to try to log in. Due to the number of times Mozilla has changed the login system, I already had THREE saved logins for the site... And none of them worked because they were all with usernames and now the site wants an email address (and, of course, when they made the change they threw away the existing user accounts instead of just using the email address and password that was already associated with the username).
So, yes, I am venting, because I am tired and disgusted.

When I connect my computer to my wireless headphones, all the sounds from programs and audios I play on all the other browsers (chrome, edge, opera, etc) are automatically played via the connected/paired headphones. When I play audio or watch youtube on Firefox, the sound plays directly on my computer's speakers. It's as if no headphones were connected at all.
I opened up the volume mixer and included screenshots below. On the left, when I'm not connected to the headphones, the sound plays via the speakers and you can clearly see mozilla's audio levels in green are ok. When I connect the headphones (middle photo) the sound still plays via the speakers but there are two firefoxes and one is playing audio, the other is not. I don't know why there are two, I only have one tab open. Lastly, when I switch the audio device to headphones, Firefox completely disappears from the list of applications playing audio. I opened up other browsers and played audio in each and they are listed in the applications, as you can see in the last photo. They are actively playing audio as indicated by the green audio levels and I can hear them via the headphones. Firefox on the other hand, is still playing via my computer's speakers.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? Firefox is my main browser so it's tedious to have to open another browser when I want to watch youtube or listen to something.
My question is about fullscreen.I can't make videos fullscreen as the way I want,I wish you could help me about this please :)
Like in youtube,udemy and some video resources

So let me give some details, I am running Firefox 71.0 (64-bit) on my Mac and Windows10 PC ... however the Windows OS is running on BootCamp off the Mac. The Mac App of Firefox seems to give a much more pleasant experience playing flash games like Alpha Penguin but the Windows Program is extremely laggy. Is there any reason why? Both OSes are using the same hardware to it's max capabilities.
I'd also like to mention that I have an older version of Firefox on my daily solo Windows 8.1 machine and it's lower specked and Flash games like Alpha Penguin play pretty well(there are some lag areas but not as much as my BootCamp situation) but when using a newer version of Firefox on that Win8.1 machine Flash seems to be as equally as bad as the BootCamp Windows10.
Then I have a Windows10 gaming laptop and Flash sometimes struggle there.
All computers have Chrome and play flash equally "okay".
Why am I having such an issue with Firefox, so many different results? Is there something I can do for my BootCamp Windows10's Firefox to play as smooth as Firefox on the MacOS side??

I raised this (and it was off-topic, so my apologies) in the recent thread about getting the tabs back to below the address bar following the update to 71.0. Having successfully done the move - and thanks to everyone for the help - I'd now like to restore the appearance of the tabs and the tab bar to what I had before the update. I suspect that that was thanks to installing a theme, but I'm afraid I no longer have the details.
I'm attaching a pic of what I'd like to achieve. Cor-el kindly gave me this for my UserChrome.css file:
.tabbrowser-tab:not([selected]) .tab-content { background-color: #99EEFF !important; }
and that goes some way. But I'd still like to generate a vertical gap between the tabs, round off their top corners, and change the background colour. Despite searching around I haven't yet found the specific coding to do this: if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be very grateful. Many thanks.

The optional search bar where you can choose your search services (google, wikipedia, youtube, duckduckgo etc): The search bar works for google but not for google images. Instead of results I get a 404 page and the url seems to be coming out wrong which may be the problem(?): https://images.google.com/images?q=fox&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls={moz:distributionID}:{moz:locale}:{moz:official} And the 404 error reads "images not found on this server" but it worked before, and this just started happening today. This was for a search for "fox". (As an example, in the url given above) Again, search bar works for google (regular), wikipedia. duckduckgo etc, just not for google images search . LATEST FIREFOX

When I type a few characters into the url bar, I see a list of completions from sites I've visited before, and the completion from the top match is highlighted in the URL bar. For example, if I type 'ny' into the search bar, I see a list of sites pop up with 'ny' in the url, and the URL bar itself now contains the original 'ny' characters followed by a highlighted string of 'times.com' since that's the site with nt in it that I've visited the most. So far, so good. The problem comes when I press <enter> however. Instead of taking me to the New York Times website as I intended, the browser reacts as if I only typed in ny in the search bar and hit <enter>, and it ignores the auto-suggestions that it just displayed. (In this case, it takes me to ny.com, which is not what I want). How do I get <enter> key presses to go to the completed url? Here is a screen cast showing exactly what I'm talking about: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L4a_lLG0QRPRU6aKSvoUIa8MOvRwBCHm/view?usp=sharing

Hi,
WebGL on Mozilla Firefox is very slow compared to Google Chrome on same desktop?
Desktop specs: - Kubuntu 18.04.3 LTS 64Bit Linux OS - 500 Watt Power Supply - ASRock Q1900M Motherboard - Intel Celeron 2GHz 4-Core CPU - 16GB DDR3 RAM Memory - nVidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB GDDR5 GPU (Ubuntu nVidia proprietary display driver version 435.21)
Using the same WebGL demo, I get 10 Frames Per Second on Firefox and 45 Frames Per Second on Chrome? Any ideas what the issue is with WebGL and Ubuntu Firefox and how to fix it? Let me know, thanks!

On a Dell XPS laptop with Windows 10 and the latest versions of both Windows and Firefox, shortly after starting the browser a process called "Runtime Broker" uses all the CPU in two or three short bursts, causing the fan to run at the highest speed, draining power, and causing the OS to crash today. This has been happening for about two weeks after installing the latest updates for Windows and Firefox. Several tabs are open in the browser. The report is being submitted in Edge, so troubleshooting information isn't given yet. I will update it when I can successfully open Firefox.

Firefox is crashing (BSOD) my computer (PC with Win7x64) daily, during mouse movement or during auto-scrolling after clicking the middle mouse button. It usually happens at least once per day, and has been happening for weeks. FF, Windows and my mouse driver are up to date. I have tested memory many times (using Memtest86) and my hard drive. I have no crashes except in Firefox during mouse activity.
The BSOD reports vary. Recent ones: Bad Pool Caller (019 and 0C2), PFN List Corrupt (04E), Memory Management Error (01A), ??? (07E), System Service Exception (033). The only consistent thing is using the mouse within Firefox.

I'm using a fresh install of the latest FF version with bookmarks and stuff imported from another browser. The issue I'm experiencing is that when watching livestream at Facebook, after an hour or so the browser slows down and tabs become laggy. CPU & GPU usage for Firefox at that time is around 45% each.
If you have some information how to solve this, I'd appreciate it.
