Firefox Community Forum

What happened to the home page? It now has a different format after a recent update. There is too much white space and the placement of the desired icons has shifted down on the page.

Anyone have any experience with this annoying issue?

Thanks.

The GPU isn't working properly... I've attached screenshots of the browser I have installed. If needed, I can take any logs, etc. It's very frustrating - I have a fairly old processor and its GPU isn't working properly! If needed, I can create a thread on the forum and attach any information about my system. Sorry if I'm in the wrong place! Best regards, and thank you for the best browser in the world!

So, I've just went on a quest to find a solution to my pinned tabs disappearing every few days, and it seems like this can happen if I don't shut down Firefox properly. Is there a way to stop this from happening?

That's my question. The rest of this is curiosity about the issue since it's seemed to have persist for a few years:

Is this intended behavior? No other browser I use does this and judging from the hits I got here, and elsewhere, it seems undesired. Is there some security or privacy reason it's like this?

I know I can repin the tab, or take some session recovery steps, and a few other things... but IMO, those are workarounds, not solutions. Barring some technical or mission limitation, a true solution should prevent this from happening at all.

When I open the history menu and search for any term, even a term that should return a bunch of results such as; http, google, search, results, <any keyword that I just searched> no results are EVER found. My history menu shows over a year of browsing data, but when I go to search it the search always returns NOTHING. It doesn't matter what I search in the history menu search bar, I always get no results. Yes, my history is being recorded, whenever I visit a site it is immediately visible in the history menu.

Stuff I already tried: Restarting firefox (duh!) Rebooting my computer Uninstalling my extensions Trying it in Privacy Mode Help>More Troublshooting information>Places Database>Verifty Integrity showed that my DB was "sane"

However, when I create a new profile and browse a few sites and search then the history search bar does work (in that profile). Based on that I think the issue is profile specific, but I didn't change any settings in my profile that I can think of. Any ideas what could be going on?

Mozilla VPN repeatedly gives "authentication error" when I try to log in, I have tried reset but no difference. I am working on Linux Mint with Firefox. Any tips?

Sites are now crashing because Firefox has "run out of disk space"

My most full drive is only 72% full and there are multiple other drives I could switch to with terabytes of spare storage. I also have plenty of indexes free, these are only 2% used.

But how? The solution page only offers advice for clearing cookies and data. I don't want to do that.

I have tried increasing dom.storage.default_cache and dom.storage.(I can't remember the exact syntax, but it was the site specific default cache), and I then tried killing and restarting chrome, but the issue persists and it means I can't run WhatsApp in my browser anymore, currently the only Linux WhatsApp solution.

It also affects multiple sites which struggle to load the css correctly, or crash altogether (the firefox help page and deepl.com)

Hi there.

So as the title suggests, I have an odd issue, where audio from calls gradually pan around my headphones. It starts normally, but slowly goes towards the right ear, and eventually it starts moving back towards the center, but very muffled, as if something is simulating audio going behind my head, then left ear, then back center. This happens across different computers, OS's, audio interfaces, headphones, so the issue is highly likely to stem from within Firefox, although I'm not ruling anything out.

I've had this issue for probably years at this point, but I very rarely take calls (ie. Teams, Messenger, Discord), so it's never been the biggest issue, but now I have to regular do calls on Teams, and it's driving me slightly nuts. This does not happen while running the respective apps, but frankly, I'd rather not have to do that.

It seems to be related to WebRTC, but I can't find a specific setting that changes anything in that regard.
