At one time there was a userchrome patch which could be applied to obtain legacy-style square corners on the URL bar and the search bar. I can not get this to work despite trying several different suggestions and I suspect it may be related the the Proton redesign.

Can anyone suggest a userchrome mod to obtain the desired square corners?

Hello, I've been dealing with this issue for some time now, but I don't know when it started. One day pages started being displayed with Impact as my body copy, but I never changed anything about my fonts in Firefox. I thought it was something with my system fonts, but I've since uninstalled copies of Impact on my Windows 10 PC. I'm not sure where else to look, but Impact is a difficult font to read as it's super bold & condensed. Makes reading body copy, especially small type, hard to navigate.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

I've just discovered, that by typing text into urlbar and then clicking enter while holding SHIFT or ALT leads to a different behavior by opening tab in new window or new tab respectively.

But I have custom layout with caps+space acting as enter via xkb 8-level mapping, and that enter always opens new tabs. I suspect what is happening is that firefox thinks that I have alt down when the keyboard state is in third level. But I don't really use those modifiers so is it possible to just disable this behavior and open everything in same tab?

The new Mozilla Firefox (version 110.0) does not run after update on my system. After run it shows the window, but this window doesn't respond. The clean installation (of course with profile folder erase) doesn't fix the problem. I have tried both x64 and x86 versions.

The previous version installation (109.0.1) works fine.

There are some screenshots included. I use Windows 7 on Ryzen 7 2700X processor. Could you please advice, what can be done here?

I have that issue also it shows up anytime I try PNC.com or my health care insurance. The workaround is using Firefox's private window. I removed my saved login and dumped my data, cookies, site data, and cache but that didn't help. That has been a pain restoring other sites I had saved, but that's another story.

  See image for error message.

Whenever there's an update for Firefox (which is OFTEN), there's no notification or indication, the browser just... stops working. I use a Macbook running Big Sur.

I spent two hours this morning assuming that Google Docs was messing up or that my connection was bad, until I checked Firefox. Turns out that, once again, the browser update caused the browser to just stop functioning. This is far from the first time this has happened, and I'm really fed up.

I also hate this new thing where companies don't allow you to submit a support request, instead they want you to read through the help articles and post on the forums and do ANYTHING except contact them directly. I work in a customer support environment, so I know how dumb customers are, but making it impossible to contact you is not the solution.

Firefox does updates constantly. You can have an update happen within a few days of each other. At least that's what appears to me. I don't update apps unless I really need to. But this constant reminder to update is so annoying! So I'm forced to update, even though I'm not experiencing any issues with Firefox.

That being said, yesterday, I finally decided to update Firefox. Says there is a 109.x.x update. Fine. I updated. This morning, I get another update reminder. This time it's for 110.0.1. Turns out, this "latest" update was release Feb 28. So my question is, if I updated Firefox on March 7, why did it NOT update to the "latest" version of 110.0.1? Instead it, just updated to the second latest.

It seems that Firefox browser, and Firefox devs aren't very savvy, in getting the browser to update to the "latest" version. Like most apps would. With Firefox, it appears you have to update the version right after the current version your using. Which in my case, is still an older version of the browser. So after it updated to a newer older version. Then it was able to update to next update after that. Which I'm guessing is 110.0.1. With other apps, you don't have to download ALL the updates one at a time, to get to the latest version. You just update to the latest version, and ALL previous and current updates happen at once. That's smarter and more efficient.

This seems to track of how not very intelligent Firefox is. At the very least, make the option to NOT GET REMINDERS TO UPDATE. Give users the option to update when they want to, without getting annoying notifications. AND/OR when users finally do decide to update, that they would UPDATE TO THE LATEST version. And not have to do multiple updates just to get to the latest update.

If I open a private window and then right click on any link and choose the "Open Link in New Tab" context menu option, a new tab will appear for a few milliseconds before immediately closing and the link will never load. The new tab closed in this manner will not show up in the history of closed tabs either (likely because this list is only updated after a tab fully loads a page before being closed, which obviously never happens). I have not added any new addons since long before this problem started, but I did try disabling any tab related addons to no effect.
