It seems certain sites are prone to fire popup tabs, with any click, right clicks included. I close them immediately and the second click acts normal, getting the nav result I was asking for. How to strength the popup blocking function to stop this distracting behavior? Thanks for any pointers. This may prevent me from staying on FF.

Is there a way to adjust the timing of notification banners being display in the lower right of my screen... I notice that notification for "X (Twitter)" only last a few seconds, which is fine... but YouTube notifications will not disappear unless I select "Dismiss". I looked at Notification setting but don't see anything that seems to address that. Thank You

I write stuff on Microsoft Word Online and lately, I get pop-ups from my browser that tell me to close the site, as it's slowing down my browser. I don't want to close my tabs, because I switch between them fairly frequently (I'm writing a story, and I need to keep track of other parts so you can see why that's a no-go). Is there a way to turn this specific pop-up off? I get annoyed always closing out of it whenever it shows up. I use FireFox on a Windows OS system and currently have version 133.0.3 (64-bit). I've had this show up in older versions as well, so it's not just limited to this version. Any help fixing this would be appreciated. -Mars

Notifications for certain news websites stop working after a day or so, after activating them. They work just fine and then stop coming altogether. Also, the notifications I received become unclickable after a while, but that's all notifications, not just the news ones.

I have 3 profiles. And I'm using uBlock Origin. I tried adding scripts and all that, but there's something between Firefox and MacOS that is simply blocking the pushes. Maybe some buffer/leak problems? I've reset everything several times, but the problem keeps coming back.

This happened several times in the past couple years, so I simply stopped using FF notifications altogether, and started using another browser for them. But I prefer FF altogether.

MacOS Ventura 13.5.1 (22G90) Firefox 133.0.3 (64-bit)
