My university website (brightspace) is blocked by "Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead" and clicking advance does not allow me to continue. I was using brightspace when it suddenly became blocked and I have received errors stating it was an HSTS error to now an expired certificate. I have tried to restart Firefox and clearing the website from my history and clearing cache, but nothing worked so far. Accessing this website has only been an issue on my Firefox on my laptop. The website's servers is not having issues, my other devices can access it flawlessly, and using other web browsers on my laptop does not cause any issues. I would like not to switch my browser, so any help to accessing this website would be greatly appreciated

When browsing to The Algemeiner.com in desktop Firefox V147.0.4 this morning, I consistantly got an error from every link on the page

======

"404 Apologies

The page you're looking for doesn't exist."

=======

In spite of this message, I was able to use the page, and all the links on it, normally from within Google Chrome. Is Mozilla censoring this site?

I have at least one question on the support forum which has never been answered. So I went to Bugzilla, and discovered dozens of YouTube issues under the Open/Unconfirmed status.

I can reproduce my problems. I'm sure others can reproduce their problems. Nothing is done. NOT EVEN admitting there is a problem.

If I can't use YouTube on Firefox (I can't), then why am I using FF? It is one of the biggest sites on all of the internet. But FF apparently doesn't care if it doesn't work.

What. Is. Going. On?

Hello,

I have a situation - which I had previously researched and resolved - that has come back to haunt me.

I use an ultra-widescreen monitor and searching/browsing obviously necessitates a center-screen search box which, up until now, Firefox has provided cleanly and with simplicity. However, I see that (once again) despite cursor placement in the center-screen box the search text is being entered in the address bar which is wholly impractical for me since I have to look about 60 degrees left and upwards to see what I am typing.

I say "again" because when this happened previously I was able to make a config change and resolve it but despite that still being in effect - the ".handoffToAwesomebar" is still set to FALSE - search text now has moved back to the address bar.

A brief search of this community yielded no answers. Is there any other known fix or has this now be thrust upon us permanently and thou shalt adapt?

Thanks in advance....

Hi I see that Firefox has the option to ask an AI chatbot, with your options for AI being Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Le Chat Mistral. What I'm not seeing is an option for Lumo, Protons new chatbot. My question is is there any future support coming for Lumo, or better yet, an option to let FF users choose ANY chatbot, not just these 4?

I am switching from firefox to firefox-esr. Version 147.0.3 to 140.7.0esr, start firefox with --allow-downgrade which mostly works. What does not is the "Home default" page, it is blank and can not even be configured to what it was because the settings page is also blank, nothing below "choose what content ...".

I have done this on 4 machines now with same failure for the home page. settings. My previous workaround was new profile and import data so the setting page is therein ESR. This is a far harder than it should be there being no single export-import. I had to export import history with a third party plugin and cookies the only method [I found] was to copy the sqlite file. Others like password export-import are fragmented.
