I use Linux mint and Firefox on all my computers a week ago I started to get errors on the Kroger's website. Today I used my laptop computer which has not been updated for several months and that Firefox works fine with the Kroger's website. Firefox updates has created problems with Kroger's website. How do I tell Firefox creators about this?

I'm sorry to be asking this question again, but my previous thread was locked without my being given an opportunity to respond. The question was this:

I have Bing as my homepage, but on one computer I have a very annoying problem. I click on the settings to turn off 'Show news and interests' and 'Show trending on Bing', but the next time I come back to the homepage these settings have turned themselves back on. What do I have to do to retain these settings?

Denys responded to say it was a feature introduced by an extension. I'm not sure what gave this impression; I'm simply going to the Bing homepage (www.bing.com). I do have extensions installed, but I have turned them all off for this page just in case it was one of these that was causing the issue. If you click on the hamburger menu at the top right of this page you have an option to disable 'Show trending' and 'Show news etc', but as soon as the page is refreshed the news and trending, which appear at the bottom of the page, reappear. It's as if Firefox isn't saving the cookies, and yet it clearly is.

First noticed when listening to music on YouTube while playing a game: After a few songs, video would stop, shortly followed by audio (Every few minutes it might play less than a second of audio). Somewhere along the line any interaction with YT itself or even the tab stop working. All other tabs work fine.

Firefox doesn't ever crash, and I can't see anything weird when using a process viewer (I'm not too familiar with Linux diagnostic tools).

So far I've tried:

  • Updating Firefox
  • Disabling Extensions
  • Clearing cache
  • Uninstall Firefox
  • Multiple Proton games through Steam
  • Game running through Wine
  • Updated OS

I've tested with Chrome, which had no issues.

I don't recall messing with anything at the time (I did change some settings in firefox, but I think that was a few days before the issue started).

I have been having trouble entering information or accessing certain websites. This has been getting worse regularly. Either I can't sign in, using manual or saved information in my password keeper, or I can't enter information on sites on which I'm trying to make a donation, such as my address. Or it will do that and then not let me enter credit card information, again either automatically or manually.

Note that I then have to open a different browser, and then I have absolutely no trouble. If these problems aren't fixed, I will have to stop using Firefox as my default browser, which it has been since its beginning. Please advise.
