I use a notetaking app called xournal++, which is helpful with graphic tablets.

There is this issue that seems persistent, When I annotate anything via xournal++, I export it to pdf and view it on firefox, The highlighting which is supposed to be slightly transparent, Appears completely opaque, blocking text underneath it

Now I Would normally contact the xournal team, but it seems this issue is only present in mozilla's pdf reader

I have tried opening other pdfs, although the same results occur

(Also apologies in advance I have no clue which category this should be in)

Hi, I have been using Firefox for Windows for almost three decades. I have an ASUS VivoBook with a fully patched Windows 11 Home Edition 64bit operating system. Firefox is my default browser, with Microsoft Edge as the back-up should things go awry. Well, they have with this Firefox upgrade. It effectively blocks me from using my NordLynx VPN. There is no connectivity at all if I have the VPN on. If I pause it, then no problem. What gives? This has never happened before.

Nord VPN has already been given permissions through my Windows Defender Firewall. So how and why are you programming a solid wall against my utilizing it's functionality?

I would like your input before I start hard troubleshooting, since this is totally on your end.

Hi I use Firefox for years (decades probably). How on earth is it possible that after an upgrade (to 151), I had to manipulate about:config in order to allow unsigned extensions to keep working? Of course, I am not dealing with DIY extensions, but with small and unknown extensions as AdBlocker or uBlock origin... It doesn't seem I am the only one... Any explanation will be warmly accepted...

Windows 10, Firefox v152.0: I'm logged in to my account with fidelity.com and visiting a page to get information about an ETF: https://digital.fidelity.com/prgw/digital/research/quote/dashboard/composition?symbol=XXXX (XXXX being any valid ticker symbol; makes no difference what) The information is organized within the page with a set of sub-tabs (?): Overview Chart+ Composition .... (+ 6 more) Much of the information displays normally, EXCEPT: Under "Composition": "not currently available" Under "Distributions & Expenses": "not currently available" Under "Performance & Risk": there are two sections, but only one of them displays normally Under "Statistics": three sections, only one displays normally; the other two "not currently available" (see attached image) I've checked with Fidelity support, and they verified no issues at their end--identified as a browser issue since the site doesn't have this problem using MS Edge I've cleared the cache, I've turned off enhanced tracking protection, I've temporarily enabled all scripts (NoScript extension)... none of these actions helps FWIW, I also enable Privacy Badger and Malwarebytes Browser Guard, but neither claims to be blocking anything

I am trying to browse a particular website (olivegarden.com), but it automatically redirects me to the country-specific website (olivegarden.ca). I have tried it on different browsers but I get the same result. It does not do it for Amazon or other websites for example. When I use a VPN, I have no problem accessing the .com website. Do I need to adjust the settings on Firefox or is this an issue with Olive Garden? I have reached out to them but so far they are unable to help me.
