very frustrated, and pissed at how programmers always screw things up that are working just fine by upgrading crap. Now, I have suddenly had all of my addons quit working, was forced to update my firefox. Nothing changed, and it still shows that I am using version 105, instead of the all-new, better and fancier, singing and dancing crap that is being forced upon me.

Thought only Ubuntu's Linux Firefox 136.0 was 'unstable' on my Gateway E-475M laptop - crashes, restores session then freezes only to log me out, then completely locking up requiring holding down power button and rebooting...

Now, even Firefox 136.0 on WIN7 is crashing, then restores session only to go to the 'blue screen of death' requiring holding down the power button and rebooting...

Evidently, the problem is not with Ubuntu or WIN7, but either: Firefox (Linux or win version); or, the Gateway E-475M laptop (2.0GHz CPU, 4Gb RAM, 8Gb swapfile, Harddrive at 61% usage, Linux/Win on separate booting partitions, LAN + usb & pci wifi's, etc.) - both OS's used to work fine, but as upgrades to Firefox have come along, they have steadily gotten more and more unstable...

Sometime, I'm only making a bookmark, and it starts this circus act... does it on differing websites, etc. Firefox is the only thing loaded - using two windows on two different monitors ...at a loss as to what to do - Firefox is supposed to be THE lightest-weight browser out there, and was for awhile... the only extension used on both systems is "NoScript" - could that be causing the disturbance in the force?!?

I understand Firefox has always had a bit of an issue with SVG - and the 'Firefox has higher standards' doesn't really cut it.

I personally love Firefox but the number of users doesn't warrant spending much time redevloping sites to overcome a shortcoming that no other browser has.

Eg of a website the problem applies to - https://fontmellmagnavillagehall.co.uk/

As I was downloading a video from Google Photos, it showed the yellow by the download arrow and said it failed. I tried multiple file types: mpeg, jpeg, mp4, exe. I googled what to do and my answer was: Disable extensions, start in safe mode, clear cookies, clear history, clear download history. I did all that and I can still not download. I restarted my computer and nothing changed. on FF version 136.0.2

Still waiting for an answer to the above question. Why does the page jump back to the top when I want to open a link in a new tab? The link is halfway down a page but when I do a right/left click it jumps and invariably opens the link a few articles above the actual article I want to read. This had been happening for months now and nobody has bother to give a solution.

Bought a new monitor which is set to 3840 x 2160 by default, so i had to change the Windows UI display setting to 200% for my eyes.

This is fantastic on Windows and works as expected with Chrome and Edge browsers. Type appears to be correctly anti-aliased. It does not work with firefox, however. Both the browser UI and viewport content is pixelated.

Attached are three examples of the pixelation on text that we are seeing.

There is no scaling set within the browser - this is a new install with everything set to default at 100%.

Is there a system setting that we need to invoke in order to smooth type within the viewport. There are several articles on this forum that seem to touch on type smoothing but we were looking to confirm whether there is a default setting that can be changed outright.

Hello, ever since I upgraded MacOS to 15.3.1 and Firefox to 135.0.1 the top menu bar seems to disappear. I do not know which is the culprit, but on MacRumors (https://www.macrumors.com/) you'll find several others with the same experience.

My personal observation is that it seems to happen on various Silicon hardware (tried 3) and when multiple tabs are active.

The bug is no showstopper, but to proceed you got to click on the (invisible) menu bar in the upper left. Thanks for reading.

Hi support team,

There seems to be an issue loading certain pages since the new update to v 136.01 (64 bit). I am not technical so wouldn't be able to tell you what sort of page I am looking at. However, the following "dashboard" doesn't seem to load since the recent update:

https://cloud.intelligent-things.co.uk/dashboards/Marketing?authorization=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJqdGkiOiJEYXNoYm9hcmRfTWFya2V0aW5nIiwidXNyIjoiSW50ZWwxIn0.fl0zYmrL06CK0heYinCSvq9F8iVeAgl2iobM03yzL5I

In previous versions (other than the connection going stale), this loaded with no issues.

Many thanks for your help,,

Can anyone please help me figure out why can't I access my multiple open Firefox tabs on my Widow 11 desktop unless I open a new tab, and then click on the three line Firefox app menu symbol, then select "History" and then go back? I don't even have to choose a function under "History". I just go back to the tabs and they have become available to be selected and activated. This fix is only temporary and may have to be repeated several times in one session. The misbehaving tabs show up in a horizontal row over my toolbar area (sometimes as dark panels after an update) but clicking on them just causes the row of tabs shown, or the vertical list of excessive multiple tabs, to disappear. I tried selecting troubleshoot mode, but did not see any indications of errors. This problem only began after my last Firefox update and does not go away after a Windows reboot.
