Long time Firefox user on linux and only recently noticed this RAM usage issue. Maybe it also affects FF 68?
I can use firefox all day running linux peppermint OS 9(fully updated) with Xanmod kernel 4.19.66 but after I suspend the laptop and resume, firefox behaves normally for approx. 1/2 hour then RAM usage increases dramatically. I only noticed this while running a virtual machine and FF ate all my remaining ram.
Minimizing memory usage from about:memory helps for a short while but FF will again consume too much ram.
However, if I close FF and restart teh ram usage stays within normal limits all day ...until I suspend and wake the laptop again.
I have noticed this issue on two different configurations:
1. T510 laptop running Peppermint OS 9 with windows virtual guest taking majority of RAM. FF on linux host usually stays within 2GB of usage but after suspend it jumps much higher and consumes ram freezing the laptop.
2. W530 laptop running Windows 10 OS (1903) and Linux Peppermint 10 OS as virtual guest. FF on linux guest also consumes more RAM after waking Win10 from suspend and crashes Linux virtual guest.
I want to find a forum where people post questions and interact. Geez you guys are making this way too difficult. FIREFOX ...multiple issues and questions
FORUM....I don't want to ask my questions into a text box. Give me a link to a forum.

I have the Lastpass extension on Firefox 69.0.1 (64-bit). I always used Two-factor Authentication on Chrome to access Lastpass from a browser extension, but on both the Firefox extension and the Lastpass webpage in Firefox, when I put in my user name and master password, it does not open a the Lastpass window to input the google authentication code, instead it just hangs on the webpage and does nothing on the Firefox extension ... Any help would appreciated...

First of all, I hate everything about Yandex and I will not ever use it simply because it tries to force itself into our lives. Anyway, this is not the main problem. Every once in a while I keep getting Yandex set as the default search engine for Firefox and every time, I delete all search engines and just leave Google. Why does this happen over and over again?

I had the now common "using an older version of Firefox, create new profile" to which I have now repeated the same process 3 times, then lo it all works, so happy browsing for over 3 hours, then I shut Firefox down, and then 15 minutes later open up Firefox and get told I am using an older version and need to create a new profile. Are Mozilla employing 7 year olds now?

I want to set Firefox Portable as my default browser. It's been updated to the latest version.
I've tried the method described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/make-firefox-your-default-browser
The problem is that Firefox isn't listed as an option on the drop down menu. Maybe that's because I'm using Portable, rather than the installed version.
Resetting to Microsoft recommended defaults doesn't help.

I like to read news online from sites like: Foxnews, CNN, CBS, WSJ etc., and I have limited data available (Metered Service). On almost all of these sites I was able to stop auto play of the video by disabling auto play options, and adding disable HTML5 auto play extension when some sites managed to bypass the disabled auto play option. However, that didn't stop the sites from downloading the videos. I've tried everything that I've found online: content blocker, no script extensions, etc., but nothing seems to work. Does anyone know if there's an answer or a solution to this problem, or will I just have to limit my online site visits as some other forums suggest?

This morning, 09/03, Firefox was updated. After that, every time I would open a Facebook game I would be prompted to run Flash Player. Posted on Community, no response. Decided to uninstall/reinstall. Now, everything is F__d'ed up. When I click on any game, all I get is a black window. Also, I've always left two tabs open and when I'm finished on-line, I would click on the red X in the upper right. Then, when I wanted to go back on line, when I click on the Firefox icon in the task bar, both tabs would come up. Now, if I click on the X, I get a warning I'm about to close two tabs. If I click OK, both tabs are closed and when I open Firefox again, they are not there. Getting sick and tired of the problems.

Firefox proceeds to clean/delete the cache files at certain time intervals, the assigned size limit in the setting outlined below do not seem to affect this behavior. This forces me to reload some websites with allot of content to go through because the websites fails to read the cached content as I progress, as those cached files have been deleted by Firefox. I have not changed the tab during the cleaning or restarted the browser or anything else that might reasonably trigger such cleaning behavior. Firefox seems to do it based on a time interval.
I have altered these settings without any success:
browser.cache.disk.capacity
browser.cache.disk.smart_size.enabled
Is there any way to control this behavior or will I have to keep reloading the websites?

Hi,
I've been getting question marks instead of words (typefaces) when I load some websites. This isn't consistent. When I use Safari, everything is just fine. Even Chrome.
I've tried everything I could find worth trying in other peoples' queries with no luck.
This is super frustrating.

man i wonder why in firefox forum, one cannot just post a question directly? i have to go thru several layers of whatever before i was able to finally to post this question!!
in other normal forums, once you login and go to a particular topic, right there is the big, post a question button. right in front of you!! why can't firefox do the same??? why we have to jump thru several layers!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? i'm getting the feeling mozilla doesn't want to be bothered.
PLEASE PROVIDE A "POST A QUESTION" BUTTON ON EACH FORUM TOPIC!!!!
