YouTube only on Firefox has terrible stutter/frame pacing issues, most prevalent when watching 4k/60 content. "Stats for nerds" shows a healthy buffer and minimal dropped frames. This issue is not present when watching local videos or on Microsoft Edge. The issue can be alleviated by watching in 1080p60 but stutter/judder is still present. The issue is not resolved no matter what power or performance options I choose in my laptop's settings. Any help is super appreciated, as I really don't want to open Edge every time I need to use YouTube. Thanks!

Firefox Focus Android burning through mobile data in the background

My phone carrier alerted me that my 15gb of data had all been used up, which was surprising considering I've been mostly at home on Wi-Fi and don't ever reach my limit even when I'm traveling.

I looked at what was using the data. To my surprise, it seems like Firefox Focus had inexplicably burned through 10gb (!) of data in the background over the last day without any tabs even open.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is there an explanation for what's happening?

I'm concerned about it continuing, obviously, but also concerned it might represent a security breach on my phone somehow.

In the meantime, I've disabled the Firefox Focus app's permission to run data in the background. Not sure if that will solve the issue. I also noticed that it does not seem to have been burning data on Wi-Fi.

Thanks for your help.

First of all, why are there two Other Bookmarks folders? When I add a new bookmark, my routine is to open Manage Bookmarks, drag the new bookmark to the second (lower) Other bookmarks folder, then choose Sort > Sort by Name. I have also tried A > Z Sort Order. The sorts work within the Manage Bookmarks window, but they are not saved automatically, and I do not see a way to save them manually. Also, if I go to the Other Bookmarks folder on the far right side of the Bookmarks Toolbar, I have to scroll down to the bottom of the list to see my new bookmarks. They are not in ascending alphabetical order the way I want them.

Hi,

I have been using Mozilla for decades. In the last few weeks, the browser is constantly crashing. I heard there were some large scale denial of service attacts on Mozilla and I feel like I am seeing the effects. My browser is upto date so that isn't the issue. Is there anything I can do? If it doesn't get better soon I will have to switch to Chrome or worse :-( YUK! I love you guys and really hope there is a solution.

Hello Recently I’ve been unable to use PayPal links when attempting to check out from any retail website while using FireFox for iOS. When I click the “PayPal” option in the cart it opens a new tab but nothing happens and the tab and browser bar in the new tab reads “about:blank” This did not used to be a problem. This problem has occurred with any retail site I’ve attempted to check out of recently. My browser is up to date and I’ve already tried clearing my entire browsing history as well as uninstalling and reinstalling FireFox. I’ve reviewed every setting I can find and the other (older) articles I’ve found about this issue reference the desktop version and selecting options such as “Advanced” which aren’t present in the iOS version. Hopefully you can provide some ideas. Thanks!

Yesterday, something went wrong in my Windows 11 desktop (I have a virus program installed). One of the casualties involved corrupting Firefox (it would not open). I reinstalled Firefox without removing the old version. Now I have a new installation but all my bookmarks and other data are missing. There is a folder on my desktop labelled as "Old Firefox data". It is possible to restore Firefox to a previous time (a day ago)? Thank you.

Thunderbird android just installed, would love to use instead of current Outlook client. Long email threads showing as unacceptably indented, down to one letter per line some cases. Occurs TB android but less so Outlook android, and TB desktop. One workaround is to view emails as plain text on TB desktop, they then wrap beautifully. Any plans to allow plain text render on TB android? Or any idea how to view badly indented emails so they fill the pane? Thank you for the good work!

FF v133.0 when maximized causes Windows taskbar to not appear when moving the mouse to the bottom of the screen

After updating to v 133.0, when maximizing Firefox (not F11 fullscreen), a taskbar that is set to "auto-hide" will no longer unhide when mousing to the bottom of the screen. This did not occur with the previous version (132.0.2).

This behavior is also unaffected by the "devtools.toolbox.alwaysOnTop" setting in about:config as i've tried switching from the default "true" to "false".
