Hello my dear friends, Hello my beloved family, Hello Everyone,

This is the first time reaching your support because i never had any issue with any of your products ( I mainly use firefox as a browser for pc(ubuntu) but also on android devices).

I am writing you this email to express my gratitude and happiness for being a faithfull user since your debut(at least since when i had internet and a pc in the old days :D)

I really loved your professional attitude. I really learned alot from YOU. I really love you.

Plz continue your greate ACTIONS( at least this is what i think) and don't let the giants of internet ( i won't name any company so they don't sue me hhhh) try to confuse use or steal your faith in the "STRONG COMMUNITY".

YOU KNOW WHY BECAUSE ALL THESE giants BETRAYED MY EXPECTATIONS (at least the major ones that i know) BUT ONLY ONLY ONLY ONE PRODUCT NEVER BETRAYED MY EXPECTATIONS !!!

===============================================================

THIS PRODUCT IS "FIREFOX BROWSER" (i swear to god to all gods in all languages that this is TRUE at least for me :D)

Really love YOU ALL. Your Sincerally. Your thankfully. Your Brother.

Sometimes when loading a page, and the page is slow to respond, I will see a strange situation: The page is totally blank (the F12 tool does not display page content). The refresh button is gray (disabled), or sometimes although the refresh button enabled, the url textbox is "about:blank", which means I cannot actually reload the page I want to read. I have to re-navigate to the page through the link in the previous link. I'm not sure whether I got across. I hope the issue can be fixed.

I don't want a dark theme and have tried numerous times to change it to a light theme. Within a min. Firefox returns to a default dark theme without me touching anything. Is there something that I am missing or is this newer browser in need of repair? This is getting old, I have used Firefox for years, never had a problem with kind of issue before. Thanks

Open up about four or five tabs with video like YouTube, Twitch, etc. The video will lag when you move the mouse pointer over to the first tab. This bug has been around for a while. It does not occur with any of the other browsers. I just did a new installation of Windows 10.

Also Instagram notifications don't open when you click on them. This has also been an occurring bug.

Hi,

On MacOS whenever I use the horizontal scrollwheel on my mouse (MX Master 3) in Firefox, the browser sometimes decides to go to the previous/next tab instead of scrolling horizontally. It's kind of difficult to describe the exact behavior: the horizontal scrolling DOES work. but whenever I hit the 'start' or 'end' of the scrollbar and scroll a bit further, the browser goes to the previous/next tab. This behavior doesn't occur in Chrome, the horizontal scrolling works fine in that browser.

I've tried the following: Setting mousewheel.with_alt.action to 0 --> Still not working browser.gesture.swipe.left/right to 'blank' --> Nope

Further info: Firefox Developer Edition 100.0b3 on M1 Mac using MX Master 3

Over the past few weeks I've no longer been able to cycle through different unit types in the Fonts Tools. I used to be able to choose to see my font size in em or px etc (which was good to see what the px was from an em), but now nothing happens when I click on it.
