Hey All:

On this website: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/ https://fred.stlouisfed.org/

Upper-right My Account drop-down menu. Click, and it simply disappears.

In Chrome and Safari it pops up a Login form.

I've turned off popup blocking in Firefox, no change.

I'm guessing there's a simple fix, suggestions welcome.

Thanks,

Steve

I have a typical search bar at the top of the browser window. Recently, as soon as I begin to type a search, the bar expands to cover the whole top of the browser window. How do I stop this from happening? It's unnecessary and irritating. Firefox 133.0, Win 11

Can I disable or configure the delay when Firefox shows the "Open the {thing} link with {App}?" dialog?

I have bookmarks for the application Obsidian, which uses the obsidian:// protocol, registered in Windows. I type the bookmark keyword, it opens the protocol, and asks to confirm whether I not want to open it.

While I wish I could get rid of the entire dialog, I understand that's a security risk, and I understand that the manual delay is ALSO a security detail (to prevent errant or intentional mis-clicks by malicious websites), I want to disable it.

I'm aware there's a lot of hidden configuration options, but I can't even find the name of what this dialog is called. Every search I have for it yields unrelated results. "Open with" is the only idea I have now, so maybe I should start searching for what the integration or protocol is called within Windows. Maybe that'll put me on the right track.

So, can I disable OR 'configure the confirmation dialog, either altogether OR the delay?

When I have Firefox open and go into a few websites, the pages start to mess up. What I see gets weird characters. Started happening maybe in Feb of 2025. Does it on multiple websites. I have to close out and shut down firefox and go back in before it is fixed. It makes it very hard to work when I have to do this all day. It started sporadically and now is multiple times a day. After being open and used for a few hours it starts to mess up. I have multiple tabs I have open and using them at the same time for work throughout the day. I have done this for years.

I love Firefox, I use it on all my devices. And daily I access facebook.com on this browser, it's been working flawlessly - until yesterday. Yesterday, using Firefox (ver 130.0.1) on my Windows 10 PC, I tried accessing a FB page which I visit sometimes: https://www.facebook.com/OpenOscillator

Rather than reaching that page, I got a white screen with this error message: "Sorry, something went wrong." And since then, even visiting the Facebook home page (or any other FB page) has the same error message.

Today I tried the same thing on my Mac (OS 14.3), using Firefox and logging into facebook.com, which worked as usual. But when I went to https://www.facebook.com/OpenOscillator, I got the same error message: "Sorry, something went wrong." And as happened on my PC, now on my Mac I can't access any FB page on Firefox.

And just to mention, I've rebooted both the PC and the Mac, yet this problem persists on both devices.

Trying this same exercise on Edge on my PC does not have this problem. Nor does it happen when doing this on Safari on my Mac.

So, this problem has only been happening on Firefox. I can no longer access facebook.com with Firefox. Do you guys have any ideas how to solve this?

Helpful to know: Do you have the same outcome if you visit this FB page: https://www.facebook.com/OpenOscillator

Thanks for your assistance! Steven

I use Google search and do not like the AI overview feature. In the Chrome, Edge, and Opera browser I've added an extension that blocks the AI. What I've noticed when I use FF I see no AI results when using Google search and I've not added an AI overview block extension. Is there something different about FF that prevents AI results from showing without the need for an extension? I look forward to your comments. Thanks

How come Google Meet takes me to a 404 page on Firefox only (dont have this issue on any other browser)

In recent weeks when I open my Macbook and go to https://meet.google.com, the page that loads says "404. That’s an error. The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know." The issue is only on Firefox and not Chrome or Safari. When I see the error page, I look at the URL and it has the word "unsupported": https://meet.google.com/unsupported?meetingCode=landing&ref=https://meet.google.com/landing

So I dragged firefox to the trash, reinstalled and the issue persisted. I do not have a VPN. I'm using my own Wifi at home. If I switch to my desktop computer (m2 mac ultra) and go to the same Google Meet URL, I don't get a 404 error on firefox, however no one can hear my microphone any more as of 1 month ago, when I didn't have this issue in the past and I've done everything that everyone has told me to (in order to fix it) and nothing has worked.

I have 6 websites that I currently cannot sign into using Firefox. Support tells me to use those two crap browsers Chrome and Edge. I end up using Edge because it is embedded in my computer and I cannot delete. I will not install Chrome and have put on Avast Secure Browser and CClean browser. Both are just Chrome with a new gooey. My Father is also having the same trouble. Most of the sites are for Utilities and rewards programs. Avast is also blocked. Are you aware and working on getting this fixed?
