Hello, I am using Firefox (105.0.3) on a Macbook Pro Mac OS 12.6 as a default browser. Every time I click on a link two firefox windows always open up. I can't find anywhere why that issue keeps popping up because I've used firefox nightly and haven't had that issue at all. Any help would be appreciated!

cyclical freezing of the image while watching videos

Hello,

recently i've bought a new microsoft surface studio laptop and i noticed that when i am watching something on youtube, netflix or any other platform the video (sound is ok) is freezing after 9-10 sec of watching. I checked my componetns, temperatures, but then i tried another browser - google chrome. It worked smoothly. I use firefox since 2013 and i love it, but now I am considering switching to a different browser, because something is wrong here and it's not a hardware problem but rather a software issue, which is obviously firefox here... I am open for any advices on how to fix this freezing problem and just to be clear: i really don't want to change my browser... i like it :(

Best Regards Micheal

Re your (partial email & apology) sent to me by mistake:

"Greetings, It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. You know what else was humbling? Sending out an email by mistake, full of out-of-context Sagan quotes being used as placeholder text (thank you, Sagan Ipsum)."

So I looked for the humor in it, but then remembered that since you "partner" with the cursed WEF, it's more likely an expression of a severe mental illness that characterizes all who "partner" with them, & thus only deranged types might find funny.

You can see the context menu in the photo, I would want to hide the pin tabs button so I could stop clicking it on accident. Pinned aren't a feature I use nor find useful anyway.

Please assist with daily 5x screen out blackout crashes

It appears some source ---Google chrome---- is remotely crashing the site

restoration usually requires restoring wired power. plug cable back into wall socket

Maybe you can confirm my assessment, should I proceed with Google security features, remove my cell listed as a 2 factor notification tool

Google notification to my cell phone asks. Your device is in use, is it you. press this key. sometimes the browser is immediately restored. Frequently there is a delay. All laptop operations are now routinely interrupted by screen blackouts when power is 80-100%

I've been using X-notifier for a long time. It's toolbar button context menu shows you all your available individual email accounts for access.

In the past, in the case of Gmail, it would take you directly to whichever account selected, but now, regardless of the account you opt for, it takes you to you "default/main" account, and you must the go to the Google accounts menu to chose another account.

Is this a Google idiosyncrasy, or is there another Gmail manager that can do do what I'm looking for?
