So I started using firefox for more security from the evil google overlords recently and 1 thing that has annoyed me is how I use to be able to click into twtich and all my settings were SET and didn't need to edit them over over and over again.

For example as you can see in the image Dark mode ins't on and the cookies settings at the top asking me to manage info or accept. This keep appearing even though I turn all that stuff off and in the BTTV settings I would do the same but all the settings keep reverting back.

As for my browsers security settings I have it as: Custom ticked trackers [ in all windows ] ticked cookies [ Third-party trackers ]

send websites "do not track" as always

I really hope that this will be fixed or there is a fix for this int he future. Thanks and have a nice day.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
