Unable to Reinstante Missing Bookmark Toolbar Icons

I'm running 145.0.2 on Mint Linux and Windows 11...

Like many other users, I have an issue in which roughly half of the icons representing bookmarks on my Bookmarks Toolbar have been replaced by the black+and+white icon of a globe. The links work, but because most of them are now the same, it means I have to hover over them to make sure I click on the link I want.

I've tried: Exporting all my bookmarks to HTML; deleting all bookmarks; re-importing Deleting the "favicons.sqlite" database and letting Firefox recreate it Creating a new Profile and importing all my bookmarks "fresh" in to there

Not only does none of this seem to work, the results are actually inconsistent.

This problem has been kicking around for years - certainly for many major releases of the browser. I understand that there could be deep/complicated issues such as a corrupt user profile, for example...

Unfortunately, however, there does not appear to be any consistent or reliable effective advice on how to fix this issue... and nothing I try seems to resolve the problem.

I'd be very grateful for any recommendations on a reliable repair for this issue.

But I'd also be grateful for suggestions as to how we might go about suggesting to the devs that this long-running bug is overdue a permanent fix.

Thanks in hope.

Firefox locks completely after about a minute. How to extract list of open tabs (and groups) and start over?

FF 145.0.2 (64 bit) canonical-002 - 1.0 running on Kubuntu 25.10 has suddenly started locking up completely after a minute or so with an "unresponsive". As I have just put in the crash reporter: "I haven't had problems with FF before but just possible that this relates to my growing problems with Thunderbird see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1551791. I putting a question in Mozill Support about trying to keep my tabs and perhaps groups before doing a complete reinstall." So my questions here are:

  • I am planning to to a complete clean reinstallation from snap but is there a better (more stable) installation?
  • either snap specific or generically: is there a way I can find the open tab list from the debris of this snap installation (and perhaps the groups but that's less important)?

TIA,

Chris

Reader view misses out first text section on our webpage

On this page https://www.apc.org/en/project/member-engagement-and-travel-fund the first section of text is missed out from reader view - so that the text starts half way through the article. I understand the table will be ignored - and the internal table of contents links at the very top, but there is a paragraph in between those things that is being ignored entirely. The normal text parts should all be included for the article to make sense.

I have tried changing the markup so the paragraph was not inside the same div as the table or table of contents but this does not seem to make any difference.

Google chrome reader view handles the page fine.

Any tips no how to change markup to avoid this or is there a way to fix it?
