I'm experiencing an unusual issue in Firefox: a CSS grid overlay is visible on various websites, while everything displays normally in other browsers (Chrome, Edge, etc.). This grid is not part of the actual website design and does not appear when using other browsers.

I haven’t activated any developer tools or extensions intentionally that would cause this behavior. Could you please help me identify what might be causing this and how to disable it?

On the latest Firefox Nightly builds (I use Nightly for extensions), holding the back button in the Android navigation bar no longer brings up previous pages, like it does when holding the back button in the three dot menu. Is there a config option to bring this back?

How come Google Meet takes me to a 404 page on Firefox only (dont have this issue on any other browser)

In recent weeks when I open my Macbook and go to https://meet.google.com, the page that loads says "404. That’s an error. The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know." The issue is only on Firefox and not Chrome or Safari. When I see the error page, I look at the URL and it has the word "unsupported": https://meet.google.com/unsupported?meetingCode=landing&ref=https://meet.google.com/landing

So I dragged firefox to the trash, reinstalled and the issue persisted. I do not have a VPN. I'm using my own Wifi at home. If I switch to my desktop computer (m2 mac ultra) and go to the same Google Meet URL, I don't get a 404 error on firefox, however no one can hear my microphone any more as of 1 month ago, when I didn't have this issue in the past and I've done everything that everyone has told me to (in order to fix it) and nothing has worked.

I got a new PC and tried to import my Firefox bookmarks. But on the right side menu when you click bookmarks, it only show recent ones which actually aren't recent at all. How do you get that selection to show all of the bookmarks instead of recent?

Also I'm still getting a prompt underneath the address box to manage bookmarks and I can't get rid of it. How do I clear that out?

I have 6 websites that I currently cannot sign into using Firefox. Support tells me to use those two crap browsers Chrome and Edge. I end up using Edge because it is embedded in my computer and I cannot delete. I will not install Chrome and have put on Avast Secure Browser and CClean browser. Both are just Chrome with a new gooey. My Father is also having the same trouble. Most of the sites are for Utilities and rewards programs. Avast is also blocked. Are you aware and working on getting this fixed?

Ok so I usually choose these option to remember history and from time to time delete Browsing & download history and Temporary cached files and pages.

https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2025-06-28-08-45-55-a5277f.png

Note: I have "Open previous window and tabs" ticked in general settings which also has a restore previous session option in the history menu. This brings back previous session with tabs etc as is when I close FF. https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2025-06-28-08-45-51-cf2daf.png

I thought I could automate this on exit but don't think its working right. So I change the option to "use custom settings for history" and tick all three options:

Remember browsing and download history Remember search and form history Clear history when Firefox closes For "Clear history when Firefox closes" I ticked Browsing & download history and Temporary cached files and pages. https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2025-06-28-08-45-43-b10213.png

The issue is the restore session option is missing and FF opens with all previous tabs gone. I am frankly not even sure what else is missing such as cookies, site data etc. Is this meant to work like so?

Yesterday, I had Firefox open and running perfectly fine, and I had forgotten to shut down my laptop before closing it. Today, when I reopened my laptop, the Firefox window that was open instantly closed. I tried opening Firefox again, but it kept opening and closing immediately. It would show that there was an open window of it, but the window itself wouldn't open. It would run in the background but never actually open. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it still did the same thing. Does anyone know a solution to this?
