If I visit the website www.silviadesimone.it (I am the webmaster) through Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, I can see the visit counter in the left bottom corner of the page. If I use Mozilla Firefox (that is the browser that I normally use) the visit counter does not appear. According to the ShinyStat helpdesk it could depend on some Firefox plugin that does not allow the counter to show. Can you help me? Thank you

Hello :D

I seem to e having a problem with Firefox in that whenever I use it, my entire internet slows down to barely a crawl. I have tried several things, including turning off efficiency mode in the config.

I have tried various DNS and Proxy fixes I've seen on reddit and these forums, including turning of proxy and dns over https as well as reinstall the browser. It is only firefox that does this to my network.

I got Windows 11 Home edition and my network is a fiber network

Any help would be appreciated.

Once I visit any web site that uses HTTPS there is approximately a 90% chance it'll take seconds or even minutes to secure the connection. This never happens on other browsers as they load such pages instantaneously.

I already cleaned my data up and removed the extensions, both suspected and innocent bystanders, to no avail.

As stated in the title, I'm using Firefox 139.0.1 x64 on Windows 11 (24H2, build 26100.4061). This started happening after an automatic Firefox update, I never changed anything in my system configuration.

Slow Internet Download Speeds Running Mozilla

I have tracked down the situation where my Internet download speeds drop from about 598 Mbps to around 267 Mbps after I open Mozilla. I am running a desktop computer with Windows 11 (updated) and Edge and Chrome. I am hardwired directly to my Xfinity modem (no WiFi connection). When I close Mozilla, my speed goes to 598 Mbps, and when I open Mozilla, my speed drops to 267 Mbps. This seems excessive and unacceptable. Are there any settings or anything to adjust, not to have Mozilla be such a drain on my system?

Hi,

The scouting association have updated their members website to membership.scouts.org.uk. This works, but from there is a link to my learning.scouts.co.uk. Sometimes this works but often I get "bad request, error 400". I've had to move to Edge when using this website. I didn't want to! I've used Firefox for years

For weeks now google translate has not been working as it should, when I translate something it usually defaults to translating it to English, but if I change the language to any other than English it still only shows the English translation (or whatever language it got "stuck" on).

I have signed out and in of my google account, have the latest version of Firefox (134.0.2), refreshing the pages doesn't help. I don't have this issue in other browsers.

Downloads on Firefox are slow. They used to be fast, but about three days ago they just went way down to about a tenth of the previous speed. I've tested the same file from the same source and on Edge it downloads at the speed I used to get, so it's a problem with Firefox.

Since the last update on both my desktop and laptop web performance has slowed considerably. Some sites time out, some just don't connect. I've tried VPN on and off, changed security levels, deleted extensions to no avail. I use Windows 10. Is this the future with FF? Time, after many years using FF synced across all my devices, to bail?

Please advise soonest as this is more than frustrating and unproductive. Thanks Stephen

After a recent update to Firefox 133.0.3 (on Ubuntu GNU/Linux 22.04), Firefox is having difficulty connecting to websites and exhibiting some other odd behavior:

- After initially starting Firefox, it will load websites (e.g., previously open tabs) for up to 30 seconds. After that, it will not load any website in a new tab, showing the loading animation for several seconds before stopping all activity and just displaying an hourglass icon in the tab. These sites can be connected to in other web browsers. - After closing Firefox, its process is still running; I have to manually find its pid and kill it. - If I start Firefox from the terminal, I see these messages when it starts having trouble loading websites:

libva info: VA-API version 1.20.0 libva info: Trying to open /snap/firefox/5437/gnome-platform/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_20 libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0

I am using the most current version of Firefox with Windows 10. At this web site: https://tenthousandpots.com/ , I am unable to browse the majority of the site i.e., no products appear when selected. I also tried DuckDuckGo and had the same issue. However, when I downloaded and accessed the site via Google Chrome, the site worked as it should. I reached out to the TenThousandPots site and advised them of this and they said they've had no similar reports. Can anyone advise?

Using Firefox on iMac, with Privacy Badger plugin. Can't log in to DocuSign. I believe it is a browser error, because I can log in using Safari. When I attempt to login to Docusign I get and application error, regardless of whether I use my password or a passkey (fingerprint id).

Related issue is when I click links to articles in emails from Flipboard (a content aggregator) I get a "Bad Request" error message. This just started happening. This also does not happen if I use Safari.

I have noticed some minor changes in Google Maps. Unfortunately, they have affected the support of Maps in Firefox (135.0): maps are displayed without any names (towns, streets, objects, etc.). Since this bug is not present in the support of Maps in Edge, I think that Firefox requires a correction. When can we expect a fix?
