Anything using WebGL in-browser tells me that my browser doesn't support it.

https://get.webgl.org/ says "Hmm. While your browser seems to support WebGL, it is disabled or unavailable. If possible, please ensure that you are running the latest drivers for your video card." but I updated it to the most recent drivers and the issue is still happening. Graphics card is an AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT.

After a recent update, certain websites (like Youtube) leak script that remains even after the tab is closed, until Firefox is closed. When one of these websites is accessed for the first time, a second tab opens and quickly closes, as if a popup was blocked. One way I can observe this behaviour is that the NoScript extension will detect script for that website on ALL tabs, even blank ones, with the "(sidebar?)" annotation. With Youtube I managed to prevent this by disabling Service Workers in about:config, but for example with tenor.com the behaviour continues to occur even then.

Websites I observed this behaviour on so far: youtube.com (until Service Workers were disabled) tenor.com nami.news

Is this a bug? I have also observed the same behaviour on a different PC for Youtube until I disabled Service Workers on that installation. What should I do?

Hi,

I am using Thunderbird 128.10.2esr (64-bit).

In settings, composition I have the "use paragraph format" box unchecked.

When I compose an email, hitting Enter causes an extra line feed to be inserted. Thus I need to go back over lists, addresses and so forth to manually change back to body text. I would like to not have to do this.

Is there another setting that will allow composition entirely in body text style? I am also set to send in plain text only.

I need to have this phone fixed so I don't have people th Through my phone, this is ridiculous, so capcut. And I don't know who else we're fighting through my phone. I just want to get it cleaned up. And I'm not gonna deal with catcut anymore. It's not worth it. They're not worth it. What's the worst company I've ever gone through anyway, that's.

I would like to stop the annoying login popup to gmail. I have deleted the account that used gmail but that failed to stop it. Really don't wish to delete and re-install TB, but the pop us is that annoying. Then even if I do delete and reinstall TB how must I do it to avoid having it pick up the old information that keeps sending it to Gmail to login? Thanks for any ideas John

I followed the instructions given in Thunderbird regarding the outlook email account set up. I can download emails but cannot send emails out. I looked up MS website about the App password but I am really confused about how to set it up.

In my school, I have a school email that is also using the smtp.office365.com server. I wonder if there is a conflict when I have both a school email account and a personal outlook account in Thunderbird. Until late last year (2024), I had both accounts in Thunderbird without issues. Since MS started to require two-factor authentication, this problem showed up in my desktop.

Oddly, in my android phone I have no problem using both emails in the android email app.

Please help!

I have Comcast as my internet service provider. I use Thunderbird to download a copy of my e-mails from their server and send e-mails out through their server. Until about a month ago, Thunderbird, which I used for many years will not send my e-mails but will still allow me to receive my e-mails. When I try to send an e-mail, I get an error message that says Login to server smtp.comcast.net with username (then my e-mail address).net failed. I had read on Google that Thunderbird was having some trouble and one of the fixes was to uninstall Thunderbird and reinstall it. Also, to check my settings on my computer which I did and nothing has worked. When The message doesn't go through, after this failure message, I then get this message "Sending of the message failed. Unable to authenticate to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.comcast.net. Please check the password and verify the 'Authentication method' in 'Account Settings | Outgoing server (SMTP)'. I tried changing my password and it did not help. I also contacted the Comcast security team which was able to help me with a previous Thunderbird issue but not this one. They said the problem was with Thunderbird this time. Can anybody assist me with this please?

I am transferring my thunderbird folder to a new computer and it is 235 GB. I dont understand why it is so large. Are ALL my emails being saved? How do I delete so I can make smaller??

I use several browsers and when it comes to functionality I consider FFox to be the best however with 1 major drawback - it's speed / lag issues which is why I stopped using it as my primary browser and only as secondary one

I can have 2 different Chromium based browsers open simultaneously and while this impacts the performance somewhat if I open Firefox and another browser responsiveness grinds to a halt (sometimes even crashes)

Even just starting Firefox by itself takes 5x as long as other browsers

So I'm wondering is Firefox just more resource intensive or is there something wrong with my setup?

The main difference between my Firefox install and my other browsers is the number of Bookmarks (10000s) due to me having it installed for much longer so is it possible for a large number of Bookmarks to slow the browser down even when not open ?

Other possible causes I read elsewhere are 'Cookies and site data' (currently around 50mb)

I clear the 'Temporary cached files' & 'Browsing history' on regular basis so they shouldn't be an issue

The add-ons I have installed are NoScript , Ublock Origin & Firefox Color

In regards to troubleshooting is it possible to install a 2nd install on the same system simultaneously without overwriting the current one ?

Thanks

I started a message about 2 hrs ago where I could not get into yahoo from Thunderbird. Then when I was typing the the details my keyboard suddenly topped working. This problem has been going on over a week. I deleted the account from Thunderbird and then tried to create a new account with the same email address, and every time I tried, it either said email or password is incorrect or it asked me for the Pin for yahoo.

Note that the user and password work using Firefox, and I copied both from the web, where they dork fine, but Thunderbird said they were incorrect.

A few times it asked for the PIN for Yahoo, and I clicked I don't know. and it told me to reset it at sign in options but I could not find sign in options anywhere. Please advise, thank you.

According to Mozilla and all other online instructions for changing Firefox wallpaper, one must click on the Settings icon (pinwheel) in the upper right corner of a new tab. There is no such icon anywhere on the new tab screen. There is no wallpaper to select under the Settings menu (three dashes) in the top right hand corner. I have the latest version of Firefox. What version are these instructions for? And how does one change the Firefox wallpaper? Firefox is my default browser in Ubuntu 2204 LTS.

One of the add-ons I use has been permanently disabled. However, the email that the developer received says "Users who have previously installed your add-on will be able to continue using it." Why can't I use it?

Recently Mozilla had the brilliant idea of doing something they've done before...obscuring the URL/Address from the user. So now when you search the URL bar never shows the address your query is sent to because "usr 2 stoopid, need dum." Mocking aside how do you disable this trash. I just came back to Firefox being fed up with Mozilla pulling idiotic pointless weekly UI/Behavior rug pulls like this and...well some things never change.

Some of my shortcuts were missing on Firefox when I started my laptop this morning. I tried restarting my computer but that didn't help. I really don't know what topic fits best. I am not at all tech savvy when it come to computers.

I cannot use Thunderbird to work at all with Yahoo, though it does work with yahoo. FWIW, Yahoo does work with Firefox.

Thunderbird used to work, maybe several weeks ago. When I tried to set it up again, it kept asking me to enter my pin, and it said I could reset my pin under sign in options, but there is no place I could find sign in options.

I deleted my yahoo account from Thunderbird, then tried to add a new account for Yahoo.
