Since the last update, I believe, because this error occurs constantly and with EVERY video. This is often, not always, the case immediately after updating FF. Now it was fine for a while, but now it's so bad that I'm having trouble watching YT videos properly. Reason: Browser open, logged in to YT. I click on a video to play - video opens, plays maybe 10 to 20 seconds, then playback stops spinning top, I also found out during the last glitch after update that if I switch the resolution briefly, higher or lower doesn't matter - important is to leave the current resolution and switch to another one. And oh wonder - immediately, instantly with the change, the video starts playing. If I wait for this - without doing anything myself, it sometimes takes 30 - 40 seconds for the video to start ... sometimes it just "hangs" ... This is extremely annoying - if it doesn't work, I have to switch browsers... What is also extremely annoying is that it occurs almost regularly after an update ... until the next one possibly, for unknown reasons, does not fix the error, but sometimes mitigates it. Now, however, the disruption/interruption is so massive and totally annoying that I'm thinking of switching. I'm just tired of it ...

OK, this is getting to the point where I no longer want to use Firefox. I have had trouble in the past where if I went on Edge for some reason and logged in to my email, when I returned to Firefox I was logged out of all my Yahoo powered email accounts. When trying to log on I would receive the attached message and it would take hours, and sometimes days to be able to log on. Even when I was logged on to my main mail account, I would not be able to log on to the other two accounts. The last time this happened is when I realized it coincided with me logging into my email on Edge, so I have not logged into my email using Edge since then. Unfortunately that was just a coincidence, because it happened today and I hadn't been on Edge since I posted my previous question in February.
I am always logged into all three accounts, but since this happened two months ago, I only logged into my main account and one other on Firefox, but I have only accessed the main account since logging in to both of them. I only accessed the other two accounts on my phone, which was fine, but I sent my phone to get the fingerprint sensor repaired so I'm using my wife's old iphone now. Don't get me started on how this phone sucks, but I needed to access one of the other accounts today and I don't have either of them set up on the Yahoo app, and I didn't want to take the time to set up the one now when my phone should be back in my hands in a couple of days. I came in the house and fired up my computer again opened my email and switched to the account I needed and surprise! I was logged in. I did what I needed to do and tried to switch back to my main email when surprise again! I received that same dreaded message.
I have been trying to log in to my account on and off for about five hours now, and I'm about to toss my notebook across the room. That would leave me without a PC though, so I am forced to use Edge, but for how long? I have posted on Mozilla support many times in the past for different things, but I have never actually had anyone from Mozilla provide an answer to any of my issues. Is that because this is only a community forum? Does anyone that works for Mozilla or Firefox actually access this forum and see these questions? If it's only a community forum, where do I get post my issue to be able to receive answers from the people that make Firefox work? My last post in February had 17 views, seven others that have the same issue, (so I'm not the only one), and no replies other than my posts adding content because you can't edit your original post. Evidently the people that have an answer to my problems haven't seen it.
Maybe I selected the wrong topic? I don't remember what topic I selected two months ago, but I selected passwords and sign in today, so hopefully it's not the same topic and maybe I'll receive some input this time.
Thanks in advance.
Surprised that comments are suddenly not appearing under YouTube videos in Firefox but do show in Waterfox.

Firefox has been running incredibly slow. I currently only have this window open, but if I open my task manger it shows 10 Firefox windows running. If I right click and end task, it will end the task, but shortly there after a new one will pop up. 1 of the is running in efficiency mode. I assume this is what is slowing down performance, but I do not know how to fix.

I am receiving pop-ups from what appears to be Mozilla Firefox saying: System is infected! Viruses detected, Turn on protection and delete viruses. The virus identified is ZEUS.2020 Trojan.

These pop up happen frequently one after the other. I appreciate any help solving this issue. Thank you, Tricia Hawkins

I've been trying to set up 2fA on my firefox account, the whole process seems to work, I downloaded the backup codes and entered one to confirm and then got confirmation that 2FA was enabled (see screenshot). However, after reloading the page 2fA is shown as being disabled and indeed if I try to log out then in again I'm not asked for a code. I've tried this a couple of times now and it does the same every time. The auth app I'm using is Aegis.
Does anyone knows why this is happening ? Thanks.
[Edit: I just saw that after each time I tried to set it up, in "recent account activity" I add an error saying "Two-step authentication failed" which doesn't really makes sense...]

Seems I've noticed an issue with playing of YouTube videos the last few days. It seems that either the video(s) is slower to load and/or is slower to play. While it's not terribly slower in human time it's slower than normal in computer time. I'm not having this problem in Chrome. Cookies and cache are cleaned multiple times a day. So, I'm a little stumped as to why I'm having this issue. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks
