Type becomes fuzzy and breaks up after a few minutes of opening browser. It shifts from line to line on the page and is frustrating as the type becomes unreadable.

hello, this might be an issue with hardware acceleration - please try updating your graphics driver, or in case this doesn't solve the issue or there is no new version available at the moment, disable hardware acceleration in firefox > options > advanced > general.
