Any plans on changing that?

Firefox will launch maximized, then immediately size down to a specific size every time

I've got this weird behavior happening where if my window is closed from maximize, which saves the browser's size, and I open it, it will first open in maximize then size down to the same size.

In other words, Firefox will always open the window to a specific size regardless of what it was when I closed it. This is extremely annoying.

Is this part of resisting fingerprinting? This is some unusual behavior that I haven't seen Firefox do before ever.

I can provide a little video if my explanation wasn't clear.

i use two screens, I use firefox to open in monitor 1 (left), then click "new window" (which also opens in monitor one. I the drag and drop the second window to monitor 2 and maximize it..in the older version of firefox (pre 112.0.1) I could go back to the taskbar on monitor one, hover over the firefox icon and it would show two mini versions of my two open windows. Both windows would remain open, nothing would change. But now when i hover over the icon I still get two mini firefox windows but when i hover my cursor over the left mini window (which shows monitor 1) the main window on monitor 2 closes (minimizes) automatically...and vice versa...how can i fix this??

Google's websites works badly with Hardware Acceleration On (Google, Youtube, Gmail, Google Maps, ...)

Hi everyone, I am currently using Firefox "112.0.1 (64-bit)" on Windows 10 "10.0.19045 Build 19045]"

I have problems using almost all Google websites: most of the times they do not load at first attempt, and when they do they do not works properly. As example: Youtube does not load (or the cached version says that there is no internet connection), then after a few attempts it loads but all thumbnails on the home are gray.

On another browser (Edge) all websites works normally.

Using private window has the same problem, I have no extension and no plugin other than OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems, Inc. and Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc.. I tried emptying cache and also reinstalling Firefox.

The only fix I found on the web is to disable hardware acceleration from settings. If I disable it and restart the browser, then all websites works normally. Actually I can't see this as fix but as a workaround, since I am using a notebook and I'd like to use my GPU for video decoding and save energy.

Maybe I am missing something? Is there something I can do? Thanks.
