Firefox update (133->135) fails on Ubuntu 24.04 (snap refresh)

Update fails, apparently in post-refresh hook with the symlinks in /var/snap/firefox/common/snap-hunspell/ pointing to non-existent files in a non-existent directory (e.g. to /snap/firefox/5701/usr/share/hunspell/en_US.aff where /snap/firefox/5701/ does not exist).

A thunderbird update (128.6.0esr->128.6.1esr) fails very similarly.

I used snap to update manually in order to see error messages:

My computer had to be "factory reset" last night (I don't know if that's what it's called - but I have to re-install things like my Firefox). When I reinstalled Firefox, it populated with an older version of my Firefox's bookmarks. I have Firefox on my mobile device - and it still has the latest version of my Bookmarks.

The desktop installation prompted me to sync my devices -- but, would this old desktop prevail over my phone Firefox? Or is there a way I can make my phone Firefox replace my desktop version? (I spent about 2 hours organizing my bookmarks into folders, about 3 months ago ... and I've added tons more, of course).

I do have a Firefox Recovery Key that I took note of a year or so ago --- If there's a way to use that, will it give me the bookmarks I had up to yesterday afternoon? If so - how do I use it

I am unable to call up my routers web access page. When I key in the routers address, the following message is shown

we could not verify the certificate: reason = untrusted

I have two computers, my secondary (old, tired, and crusty) gives me an option to bypass and access the page anyway, but my main computer (all the bells and whistles) does not give me this option. I know there has to be a setting somewhere, but I have no idea where it is. Help?

First thing this afternoon, the background color of the mail composition screen was changed to solid green. The HTML toolbar is semi-transparent, and I cannot change the screen background back to white. When I click the cursor in the compose window, the HTML toolbar appears, but it does not change the background to white. The format tool indicates a white screen with black text. In Config Editor, the compose background colors are white and black text. I have tried several theme changes, including the theme from Mozilla, but there has been no change.

Rebooting Win 11, no change.

I posted the following on facebook yesterday, I feel as if something changed in my Firefox settings as this only started about 2 months ago. 2 factor Authentication is shut off in facebook. "Can anyone tell me how to shut this off? Everytime I log onto FB from my computer I get this screen. 2-factor authorization wants to send a code to my cell phone. There's got to be a way to turn it off. I am using Windows 11 pro with Firefox as a browser."

Any thoughts?

Hello.

Re: Bookmark/Edit Bookmark... right click context menu spaces

How can I reduce the spaces for the context menu for Bookmark/Edit Bookmark... A bookmark right click menus are reduced already, however the Edit Bookmark... opens up then right click the menus (Undo, Redo, etc)are, I think, in the original wider spaces. Currently my userChrome.css is as follow to reduce spaces, /* Tighten up drop-down/context/popup menu spacing */ menupopup:not(.in-menulist) > menuitem, menupopup:not(.in-menulist) > menu {padding-block: 0px !important; min-height: 0pix !important;}

root {--arrowpanel-menuitem-margin: 0px 8px !important; --arrowpanel-menuitem-padding: 0px 8px !important;}
