How do I override CSS in Reader View as of Firefox version 105?

Any advice returned by Google seems to be obsolete or only worked perhaps in older versions of Firefox. The main idea of using userChrome.css to override the default styles for Reader View does not seem to work. My userChrome.css file does work on other items though (like removing the sidebar width restriction).

Whatever advice I find via Google perhaps cites outdated CSS selectors, but current selectors do not seem to be documented anywhere by Mozilla. Moreover, I cannot find any file on my local drive named aboutReader.css when using find or grep commands in bash, those this file name is alluded to when viewing a page in Reader View and then in turn viewing source on that transformed page.

Moreover, addons that would allow me to change the colors seem to be restricted in Reader View.

It does seem like something has changed in recent Firefox updates but I can't remember when I last saw, for instance, links in dark mode Reader View that were still pink (whereas now they are blue, and impossibly dark to see, especially when you are disabling as much blue light as possible through your operating system). I need a higher contrast color for links in dark mode Reader View so I can actually see them.

I can alternatively use the Tranquility Reader addon and have custom colors, but A) that addon does not work with the Automatic Reader View addon, whereby I can always have various sites appear in some sort of "reader view" whether the native one or Tranquility Reader, and B) hitting refresh when in Reader View will defeat some soft paywalls but this does not work with, e.g., Tranquility Reader, so I still would prefer to be able to custom colors in the native Reader View feature, rather than rely on an addon.

1. Where are the current styles for Reader View even documented? 2. Is overriding them now restricted? 3. Why did the link color change from pink to blue in newer versions of Firefox (this is a terrible accessibility bug)? 4 .Where is the alluded to aboutReader.css stylesheet actually stored on my computer (it doesn't seem to be a file on the filesystem in the Firefox profiles folder, it seems more like it is embedded in the Firefox binary/executable)? 5. Will Firefox settings ever allow us to set colors specifically for Reader View (I don't mean the override settings for all web pages, particularly web pages not being rendered in Reader View ... that setting does not help in Reader View, nor would it be the desired preference for pages not in Reader View)?

Thank you.

I hope someone can help! My Firefox account was hacked as was the email connected to it. I currently have no access to the primary email. I thought I added a secondary email, but I never got a password reset email so maybe I didn't. In any event, how can I contact Firefox to lock the account? I have a lot of sensitive information saved and I need that to be locked or better yet, erased.

HELP!!

P.S. - This refers to a different Firefox account than the one I am currently signed in with

Dear Concerned,

I'm trying to open an Internet Banking site of a reputed Bank of Bangladesh (https://www.citytouch.com.bd/), where the page opens for a second, but immediately switches on to a Blank Page with a comment like "Please turn off Developer Tools to access Internet Netbanking". However, the same site is accessible in Chrome and other Browsers without any problems. More so, I also can access the same site while browsing Firefox at my android with ease.

I tried all the available solutions from the net, but my efforts went in vain.

Thus, it would be kind if I get an advise to get rid of this problem.

When refreshing and clearing cache using CTRL+Shift+R, browser should reload all assets. However when refreshing site with @import(ed) style sheet, it does not update.

The workaround is to open the style sheet in a new tab (e.g. https://my.web.com/assets/custom.css) and run refresh + clear cache there CTRL+Shift+R, which loads the updated style sheet.

Then, upon refreshing the original site (https://my.web.com), the CSS has been updated.


Is this a bug or expected behaviour?

Hi community, i have a problem with OneDrive and i want to troubleshoot some possibilities.

Outlook.com, Office.com and every other website loads in Firefox. But only the OneDrive website refuses to load. I tried it in Microsoft Edge and there it loads. The service is definitly up and running.

So i have the suggestion that the exented tracking protection might be the reason for OneDrive not loading.

How can i be sure if the tracking protection is the problem? Has OneDrive so many trackers? I mean it is Microsoft, of course it has. But how would this prevent the site from loading?

With version 105.0.3 (32-Bit) I have only trouble. Sorry to say, but most pages are not working. So I will probably now change to Chrome. Because I need a browser working and not 80% of addresses not. I don't understand the newer philosophie. I was enthusiastic Firefox user. But this year each version has more problems for me, using Windows 10. Each page I open I get "Increased safety risk". And that could not the world of security of today. I think Banks, Insurance and Healthcare don't have insecure pages without acitve signatures. But Firefox says this every time to all pages.

Have a good time, Gilbert

This problem appears on two sites (https://www.agame.com/game/tropical-merge, https://www.games.gr/paixnidia/the-mergest-kingdom) only. Other sites work as they supposed to. ABP is disabled. If I turn Enhanced Protection off, I can see google ads, but I lose any progress I have in these games. Any help would be appreciated.

Something recently changed in Firefox and/or Google Mail. Now I am always asked to sign in to Google Mail. The solution for this problem in Chrome is to allow all cookies. I tried that, after clearing Cache, allow all cookies in Chrome but I am still asked to sign in to Google.Mail. I also removed all by Block, Delete cookie Add-ons in Firefox but it's still asking me to sign in to Google.Mail. What fixes this?
