I run a drafting site where we share shop drawings for contractors and architects: https://usadraftsman.com

Whenever I open these drawing preview pages in Firefox, the browser gets slow or sometimes becomes unresponsive. The same pages load completely fine in Chrome, so I’m trying to understand what might be causing this only in Firefox.

Most of the previews are large drawings or viewer embeds, so maybe Firefox is struggling with rendering them. I tried clearing cache and turning off extensions, but the issue still comes back.

If anyone has dealt with similar heavy graphics or rendering issues in Firefox, what should I check or adjust? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

With thunderbird version 140.4.0esr (64-Bit) on Linux functions to print e-mails or pdf documents is no longer working. When trying to print an email or a pdf document thunderbird starts looping and you need to stop thunderbird from outside with a kill command.

Not sure how to explain this but...

I was using Bluehost, and they somehow screwed up my website (my email was attached to my domain). I switched domains today and when I restarted Thunderbird, all my previous emails disappeared. I'm not sure why they didn't stay on the "server" and I don't know how to get them back now that I've swtiched from Bluehost.

I still have access to my emails on my phone (thru gmail, not thunderbird, but it's NOT a gmail / Google Workspace email).

Is there a way for me to retrieve these messages? I'm on a mac, btw.

Choices? I need to understand the App before committing my internet presence. Options to revert to Firefox/Windows, disable features I choose. Otherwise it just GQQle. Sync is already intruding on my preferences.

Greetings, I have a problem with Firefox taking too long to load websites after login, while Edge loads websites immediately. It happens every time I lift the laptop lid and login. I have restarted Windows 11 and tested the load times of Firefox and Edge a while ago by going to Google. Edge loaded Google after 5 seconds, while Firefox 3 minutes and 25 seconds. That's long. Sometimes Firefox loads a webpage 10 minutes after login.

What could be the issue here and how do I fix it? I have the following extensions and I'm sure that they do not hinder Firefox.

hello, every time i start thunderbird, i'm presented with a tab that shows me the privacy policy. EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. i don't need to read it every time; reading it once and confirming is enough. but there doesn't seem to be any way to confirm, or disable this annoyance. how can i get it to stop? is there a setting somewhere, or registry entry i can change?

Thunderbird Desktop Version 115.18.0esr

The lack of a title bar makes it impossible, for example, to close the application by pressing the "X" icon in the upper right corner. The title bar does not appear when the application starts, but does appear when the application window is minimized and then maximized.

After Windows installed an update in the middle of the night I can't open Thunderbird and I've tried uninstalling it and reinstalling with success.

It says: Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. The old Thunderbird process must be closed to open a new window.

I've rebooted the PC, shut down the PC, ended the task and still nothing. It seem that Thunderbird didn't shut down correctly and the system still thinks that it's open and running. Anyone know how I can fix this issue?

Thanks,

Gregg

What version of Firefox actually allows you to add extensions? I'm running the most current version of Tumbleweed that ships with 144.0. Attempts to add extensions just sit there doing nothing until I close the tab. This sort of worked some time ago (I forget the version) but the inability of Firefox to allow add-ons/extensions is getting to be a joke. There are other browsers out there, ya know.

I have lots of bookmarks saved and when I start typing the name of one I'd like it to appear first not after a lot of suggestions that I may or may not find useful.

Why is this not a simple option?
