If I display (e.g.) Nepal in Google maps, initially the Nepali names appear beneath the Latin alphabet names, but only for a split second. They are then overwritten with unicode block icons. Some scripts work (e.g. Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese, Armenian), but most south Asian scripts do this weird "works for a split second" rendering.

I'm running 128.8.0esr (64-bit) on Debian 12.

This problem does NOT occur in Safe Mode!

In Normal mode, I disabled all plugins and extensions, but the rendering still breaks.

Any ideas?

The same page renders properly in Chrome 134.0.6998.88

I use translation A LOT. (I'm learning a foreign language.) It would help to be able to move or resize the results window. Right now, it covers the original foreign language text. I want to compare the translation with the original text and the fixed size and position of your results window makes that a lot more difficult.

Starting yesterday, browsing to the ebay.com url resulted in Korean language text being displayed per the attached screenshot. The same continues today. I tried the ebay options of changing language by choosing a national flag. Choosing the US Stars and Stripes made no difference; I still got Korean text. I tried disabling my VPN; it made no difference. I tried choosing the Canadian Maple Leaf flag and got English text but Canadian prices.

I tried to report the problem (in Firefox) using ebay's contact links; but those links require logging in. I could not because I could not pass the Capcha challenge while remaining in Firefox.

Thinking that the problem might lie with Firefox, I loaded and used the Brave browser. Not only did I get US English and prices straightaway, I was able to login with ebay and report the problem. My VPN is active and has been since I loaded Brave.

Because I have these problems only while using Firefox, I came here to report the problem and ask for assistance resolving it.

Since April 5th I have lost spell check in the message pane of the emails I type on outlook.live.com It still works in the subject line, but not the message area.

Windows 10 pro 22H2 updated to end of March, when spell check was still working well. Firefox 137.1 English Canada Language selected (has worked well for years)

I go to outlook.live.com to read and answer my @hotmail.com emails.

When right clicking on a misspelled word in the message area I get only these options, Firefox does not give me the usual options.

I am currently having other problems on that site, clearing outlook.live.com cookies does not clear the problems.

I am trying to use DuckDuckGo to do a search here is the search Jorgensen Hand Plane Lowes This search locates the store near me SO how do I stop my location from being exposed ? I do not want to use a VPN. I have FireFox and Chrome with DuckDuckGo set as the default search engine. I have cleared search history in all browsers even IE which I do not use

Hello, after chrome block uBlock i try to migrate to firefox browser. I often use devtools on my work, devtools use my browser default(choosen) language in this tab. Can i switch language on english only in dev tools tab?

Hello, This is definitely an annoying bug because each time I right click a specific tab then "Open a new tab on the right", there's no focus on the url bar. And when I want to type something I have to bring the mouse inside the url text zone and click before typing.

It would really be a nice QoL to have.

Thank you ~

arabic language is not available to select for installation , it is the tongue of more than 400 millions and of 6 official languages in UN ,while some languages are there to small countries like lithuania and latvia

I have tried several times to translate Hebrew to English using the translation beta, but Hebrew is not listed. Seems odd, given the prominence of Hebrew-speakers in the tech industry. Will you be including Hebrew in the set of languages supported soon?

Thanks, Sam

How do I stop these offers of translations ? Every single page one visits , these damned offers are covering the page and have to be clicked away. It's worse than advertisements ....

As per title. I can't get spell checking to work. I've reinstalled the latest version with an empty profile but that didn't fix it. Eset virus checker was switched off. The "Check your spelling as you type" flag is set. It's a Windows 11 system. Any clues anyone? Thanks.

Hi I’ve been searching online relentlessly for a solution to a problem I’m encountering with Firefox. The font it uses for Persian language is extremely difficult to read. Consequently, I’ve switched to Safari, which offers a significantly better font for Persian.

Firefox also encounters an issue with hashtags on Twitter. The hashtagged words appear in the same font as Safari, while the rest of the tweet is displayed in the default Firefox font.

I’d really appreciate it if you could help me fix this. I’d also like to know which font Safari uses for Persian language.

Thanks.
