Just today all my bookmarks , every other site that I try, shows "address not found" and Also each site shows "Your connection is not secure".

I have only 1 add-on, UBlock Origin. Whether this is OFF or ON doesn't matter.

HTTPS-Only Mode : OFF or ON doesn't matter.

I've also re-installed Firefox Android, no change.

Thanks, Rod

PS: WiFi & Cell connection very good.

As of late in Firefox Android I cannot get any add on to install. I've temporarily disabled 'YouTube high definition' after some strange behavior and when I tried to reinstall it or ANY of the list of curated addons I get the same failed to install message. I can no longer download any of the addons and I can't seem to figure out why. I've restarted and cleared cache multiple times but it doesn't work. Any solutions?

Hi, recently my firefox for android has stopped downloading pdfs from my universitys webpage. It now opens the document as a link in the browser and there is no easy way to download it (or maybe I am blind and just cant find the option, not sure at this point). The links look like:

https://www.ili.universityx.de/goto_elearning_file_1085576_download.html

Is there some "automatically download files" option or similar? In any case, thank you in advance!

Streaming video on websites using Firefox or Firefox Nightly like YouTube, Tubi TV etc on my smartphone running on Android plays in a low, sluggish frame rate that can be hard to watch. When using a chromium powered web browser for media consumption like Kiwi Browser, the same video on the same player from the same website plays perfectly smooth every time.

The only extension I have installed on both the Firefox and Firefox Nightly apps on my phone is UBlock Origin.

Does anybody know of any settings or optimizations I can make that can help smooth out video streaming playback on Firefox?
