Hi! I greatly appreciate your support! Since the upgrade to 108.0.1 Firefox for Windows 10, I cannot send my tweets in Twitter because when my photo pops in, it covers up the Tweet button. I was able to send it on 12/29, last Thursday. I noticed it stopped working around 5 days ago. I need to be able to scroll down to see the tweet button. I cannot send my tweets. I never had this problem before and I've been doing it the same way for years. People using different browsers are able to send my tweet using the scroll bar as normal. There is a lengthy work around where I put the mouse on the top of the tweet and use the mouse wheel. It takes me to the tweet button avoiding using the scroll bar. I would have to do this for 250 people. It's not very practical. I am a volunteer for National Wildlife Federation. Please help! Thank you so much! - ToSt

On starting FF now there is no focus, so other prog's can't e.g. open FF then download or enter a link, etc. directly. That is is a huge nuisance. Also Ctl+H or B (History or Bookmarks) don't work until the cursor is clicked within FF which is a major concentration breaker. Is there something in the settings to give FF focus when it opens like it has always done in the past? I don't like changing things in there without guidance. It's not just me, my wife's laptop is having the same issues.

I was trying to log into Firefox on a new computer and couldn't remember the password, so I reset it. Later, I found my original password stored on a different computer. Is there a way to log into my old account on the new computer? It seems to only recognize the new password, and there are no bookmarks, etc. saved. I tried reinstalling Firefox and that didn't work - it recognized that it had been installed before and would only accept my new password.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Firefox extremely slow on some sites

Hi, I just replaced my SSD (Samsung 960EVO m.2 250Gb) for a larger/faster SSD (Samsung 980 m.2 1Tb) . I'm on Windows 10 and have 32Mb Ram. Firefox is now very slow on some websites (not all).

This example is typical and has occured on multiple sites. To test and compare, I copied the URL, created a new tab in Firefox, then Paste and Go. I timed this 3 times and each time was 30 seconds. I Pasted the same into Chrome and Edge and each time it was instant. https://savingschampion.co.uk/best-buys/personal/easy-access-accounts

On my previous SSD, there was never an issue of any lag on any site.

BBC.co.uk/news is fine, as are several other sites. Does anyone have any idea what's happening? This is making Firefox unworkable for me, so unless I can fix the issue, I will have to move permanently to Chrome or Edge. That would be a shame after many years with Firefox.

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue when accessing my website using Firefox on Mac.

The browser blocks the loading of an external Google Adsense script, logging the following error: "Content Security Policy: The page's settings blocked the loading of a resource". Here is an example URL:

https://www.varbes.com/

To my understanding, the site does not have a Content Security Policy ('CSP'). We don't send a CSP network header or in the HTML, so am at a bit of a loss as to how I debug this.

I don't see the same issue using Firefox on Windows, or with Chrome, Edge or Safari. I have performed a fresh install of Firefox on my Mac to make sure no extensions are causing the issue.

Other websites seem to be running the same AdSense code okay.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks, Matt
