You publish AAAA DNS records for accounts.firefox.com, which I can reach from my IPv6-only environment, but the content of that page tries to load content from cdn.accounts.firefox.com which DOES NOT have AAAA DNS records and therefore I am unable to actually log in to my account. I applaud you for making the effort to support IPv6, but it's only half-working when not all parts of the supply chain are dual-stack enabled. Anything that you can do to rectify this situation would be most appreciated. Thanks for your attention and consideration.

Hi,

I have 3 devices with the same Firefox account : a phone, a work pc and a personal pc. I don't have bookmarks sync on any of my devices. From my phone I can access (read only) my bookmarks from both my pc. It seems I can't do the same from a pc to another. Am I missing something or is the feature not implemented?

Thanks

Every few weeks at random I have the same problem: Any action I take on tabs (e.g. close tab, open new one), as well as any typing I perform, only creates the normal effect after around 10s of delay. I can type whole sentences and nothing happens until 10s later the whole sentence starts appearing as if I had just typed it. The hamburger menu and about dialog where not impacted from this delay.

The CPU and memory load shows no signs of being a bottleneck and nothing performance hungry is happening in the rest of the system.

This happened around 2min after startup, after 5h of work, or anywhere in-between.

Workaround is a browser restart, but it is quite annoying if this occurs while I'm filling in a form and I have to start over.

Ubuntu 24.04 - snap package Once the issue occurred, I disabled all extensions (without restart), but the issue continued.

Firefox loaded my video different than many other browser

I edited a video on my MacBook Air M3 (8GB/256GB) using QuickTime Player and replaced the old video file in my Next.js project folder. After pushing the updated code to AWS Amplify, the website displays the new video correctly in Chrome. However, in Firefox, it still shows the old video with a watermark.

At first, I thought it might be a caching issue, so I disabled the cache in Firefox, but the problem persisted. To troubleshoot further, I ran the Next.js project locally and tested it again in Firefox at localhost:3000. Surprisingly, Firefox still displayed the old video with the watermark, confirming that caching is not the issue.

Can anybody explain me the issue Website Link Video of the issue Video of the link

You can see a Freepik logo appearing over the video in Firefox, but it doesn’t appear in other browsers.

Some extra info to help you 1. This glitch occurs in all OS {windows , mac , linux} 2. I tried to test in whole new devices it occurs on those devices also

I recently got into Bazzite and I'm currently working on understanding and migrating to this OS, one of the things that got my attention is the PiP mode, which by default doesn't stay on top of other windows, and that made me think about the whole purpose of this functionality to begin with, anyway this led me to think about my best idea ever which is to add "some option" in which the user can choose what is his preferred PiP window behavior and set it as default, so he don't go through all the process again and again.

Here is the problem I have: I'm using Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon 6.4.8, which has a feature of **Dragging Maximum Window titlebar makes Window Restore Down/Unmaximum**, which also is a feature that Windows has since Vista. I don't like this feature so I disabled it on Windows, but when I tried to disable it on Linux Mint, I realize the setting was broken for a very long time. Only Window to Maximum can be prevented but not Unmaximum.

I think the Linux Mint Developer will not fix it, so what I can do is only to **Just not drag Maximum Window's Titlebar** Here is the issue: **Firefox consider toolbar/bookmark as a part of its titlebar.** When I click or drag the gaps of toolbar, it is considered as titlebar. When this happens, the Maximum Firefox Window gets unmaximum, which is very annoying.

Here is a video I recorded to explain it: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K7y7MRRKy4>

Is there a way to make the toolbar not a part of titlebar?

I have two websites of my own. I am viewing one and it is correct. When I view the other, it uses the https cert from the first one, and says my site is not secure. I have viewed the cert, and it is definitely correct. I think Mozilla is probably caching old information - the certs have been correct for most of 2025, so it is a pretty old version. Therefore, it is not actually caching the cert, but caching which cert it should use. I have tried clearing the cache, and it did not help!

Has Mozilla got some kind of cache I can't clear? Should it not re-read the cert when it loads the site, or at least the cert date, each time it reads the site (ie was not previously showing it on screen)?

Since around version 96 it seemed some new core changes made to how ff operates. any one care to share what the "big changes" were around that version rollout tldr?

since ver 96 ff became secondary browser. Using to test/isolate issues w/chromium (sigh). Now since ver 132 profile manager opens browser for correct profile everything looks good then 20seconds later ff crashes eorror: Exiting due to channel error

Inspiringly i see this forum is being used still so thought i would see if anyone has ideas what changes btwn ver 96/101 and 132 which may cause this new issue, maybe i can backout the changes and get back to using ff as a secondary backup again ....

IDK about anyone else but i LOOOOONG for the ole days when ff was a daily driver option on linux

I hover over bookmark folder, they expand, and the links the folder contains work. (Or) now 80 percent of the time, I hover over the bookmark folder, they don't expand, so I click on the folder to expand it, and 90 percent of the time, the links in the folder do nothing when clicked on. They won't even get highlighted, (selected) I restart firefox, and all works again, for about 10 seconds, and problem occurs again. It goes without saying it gets real frustrating restarting firefox over and over and over again to use another bookmark. I've never experienced this before. This only happens for me on firefox for Linux Mint 22.1. Firefox on windows 11 does not exhibit this problem. Please help, thanks. Cheers...

Hello. I'm having trouble with bookmark icons in my browser. Sometimes the icons show up, but sometimes only the globe appears. I've tried everything, including installing the "Bookmark Icon Loader" and "Bookmark Tab Icon Changer" add-ons, but it didn't help. Is there a way I can change them manually in the browser itself without any add-ons?

Apparently downloads of the Firefox browser are tagged with something called dltoken so Mozilla can count unique installations. How do I verify the authenticity of the download since they don't match the untokened hash checksum?

I know downloads off the ftp site won't have the token, but I installed first and then remembered to check later.

Hello! I have a problem with GeForce NOW in Firefox. When I launch any game, the cursor freezes and does not move inside the streaming window. Outside the GeForce NOW window the cursor works normally.

Details: - Only happens in Firefox - Other browsers work fine - Cursor gets stuck right after entering a game - OS: Linux (Arch)

Is there any fix for this? Maybe it's related to pointer lock or hardware acceleration settings?
