i tried changing any and all settings, clearing cache, using troubleshooting mode etc to no avail.

i use fedora 38 beta (it was also a problem on 37 stable) with ffmpeg installed.

i use biwarden, sponsorblock, ublock origin, stylus, google container, youtube shorts block and some custom css.

i am running a system with an i3 10105f, an rx 6600 and 16gb of ram.

firefox is installed with the version off of the firefox website.

reinstalling it worked briefly, but it broke again after a little bit of time.

i am sorry if i did not provide adequate information.

I run Fedora 37 with KDE Plasma desktop on my Asus laptop. I have been doing so for a few years now on various computers I have owned. I have never had a problem.

About a month ago, I noticed that playing a youtube video in Firefox made my mouse pointer disappear. It is not limited to the page.tab, but all of Firefox, menus, tabs and window controls. When I move my mouse outside of Firefox, the pointer becomes visible. Move it back, and it disappears again.

The mouse functionality still exists inside Firefox, i.e. the on hover highlights all work as does clicking, but the pointer stays invisible.

If I switch from Wayland to X11, this does not happen.

Please put Wayland support back again or tell me how I might fix this. Thanks

When I open my yoroi wallet extension , yoroi wallet is long time loading and my firefox and mouse cursor freezes then there is crashed . I'm using Firefox flatpak from flathub on Fedora Linux. Everything worked fine before. On the other browser it is also work fine. I think it happened after update Firefox. How can I fix it ?

What could be causing this to happen on many media files? Version 102.0 in Fedora 36 workstation. This is in a demonstration video about a Travel Trailer shower door installation on this page. Down the page in the reviews section. This happens on other sites also.

Thanks for any help in advance. Bob.

Fedora Linux v102.0 rpm.

I recently faced with some weird issue, there is two setting options for cookies in about:preferences#privacy : "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" under the Cookies and Site Data and "Clear history when Firefox closes" under the History. The problem is when i restart my firefox session this two setting resets, the first becomes disabled, the second enabled with additional enabled options of Cookies, Cache and Offline website data + website cookies always deletes causing unlogining no matter is site in whitelist in Cookies setting or not. The problem preserved in any Profile, even in new created one, reinstall didn't help.

I was using Firefox and Owl (the addon).

I just upgraded to Fedora 36. I treid installing Owl and an alternative called "Dark Reader" and both cause a message stating they are corrupted.

I enabled dark mode in the browser. Google immediately changed to a dark background which I can more easily see. This site ignores the setting and is forcing me to work with very limited ivsion

I can barely make out the UI. I found what might be a solution at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1356233 but after hours trying to read it I gave up and am wirting here.

It is very frustrating that other sites respond to firefox settings and your support site does not.

Sometimes, I'll click a new tab, and "something" happens. It's like it tries to create a new tab, yet it's just a half-formed nothing that you can't interact with. And when this happens, Firefox is destined to eventually crash / become unresponsive. I literally have to reboot to get Firefox working again. I haven't tried logging out. That would probably work, too.

This also happens when moving new tabs, but I've only notice that happen on tabs with Youtube.com open.

Hello, everyone.

I am really struggling to find any info on my issue.

When I try to open any external links (for instance, from Telegram), I get the infamous error message regarding "running not responding" FF. I've read tons of answers on this but none help.

1) I'm NOT on Wayland. In fact, I am on Fedora 34 Server + X11 + lightdm + bspwm. 2) There is no "no-remote" option in my fedora startup script, nor in my ENV. about:support + search by word "remote" did not find me anything looking relevant. 3) Obviously, my FF is responding quite well. 4) Opening links from terminal emulator with --new-tab does not work either. 5) Adding "MOZ_DBUS_REMOTE" did not resolve the situation.

FF v.95.0.2, from @System Fedora repo.

Please, guide me on getting more info to resolve this issue. Or maybe somebody is familiar with it?

Thanks a whole lot in advance!

Hello all,

I just recently installed Fedora 35 on my PC.

Firefox does not launch at all after clicking on the icon. There's a spinning circle that appears briefly then disappears. Curiously though, there are any running firefox processes in the backgroud, just not a browser. Here is the output:

I should mention that it also behaves the same way when I try to open it in safe mode.

I also have tried to delete the current profile and create a new one. Still without any luck here.

I am fairly new to Linux but I am pretty sure I got a good hang of the basics. Much appreciate if anyone could guide me through troubleshooting this issue.

Fedora 33, Firefox all The web page wants permission to know my location and popups a yes/no box. I click on Yes expecting the box to do it's thing and go away. It doesn't, it remains and covers everything below it and locks the page.

And the problem is getting old ...
