Hey,

so, for many years I use firefox with hundreds of tabs, to keep that loading smoothly, I have the Profile folder on a RAM disk, which size is limited. Originally I started with 512MB which seemed plenty, but got bloated eventually, so I increased it to 700MB, then 800MB thinking it should be fine, cause "my personal data" isn't that much.

In the beginning i had to manually clear my own Website Data every couple months, deleting everything older than a year.

Currently I have to delete my personal Data every 10 days and only keep the last 2-3 months, to not run out of space... I also started to not visit heavy Websites with firefox, but with another browser that doesn't run of a Ramdisk, but despite all my efforts I need some other solution.

It feels like some files just keep growing over time without getting rid of old data, and storing new technical files, that i don't want in my profile folder... At this point, getting some extra 50-100MB that doesn't come from deleting my current data would be great... A way, to cleanup any unused data... I tried everything I could find, but I'm kinda stuck. Keeping all my Profile settings, customisations and still used personal Data is really important to me.

After Windows crashed, I installed a new system and logged into Firefox using my account. But all my history, passwords, bookmarks were erased. I also went to my phone and everything was gone. I didn't erase anything myself. Is there any way to restore the previous state of the account? Are there any backups on the Firefox Sync server?

On Twitch, my scroll bar stopped loading correctly on one of my computers. The scroll bar should be slim but it's loading the full sized bar causing the menu to look wrong.

I've tried loading firework in troubleshoot mode and it still isn't loading correctly. Works on my laptop synced with my account.

Anyone have a clue what is happening?

I'm reading on https://beginningaftertheendmanga.org and there's an extra white space between all of the images which is obviously not supposed to be there. Inspecting the page source shows that there are
tags between all of the images to make them stack vertically. Is there a way to remove the white space introduced by these line breaks?

I've tried switching firefox to compact mode, but it didn't help.

Specifically Youtube videos and nothing else either don't load at all, load only the first 10 seconds and then buffer, or load partially after ~20 minutes. No error message. Only in Firefox.

I tried: Reinstalling Firefox Switching profiles Disabling all extensions Running in safe mode Clearing cache and cookies

It's been like this for a couple of months. Been circumventing it by playing videos in a different browser, but would be nice if I could fix it.

no matter what I try I cannot get any content from HBO max, crunchyroll, or spotify to play. I feel as though I have tried every troublshooting step. In firefox 140.0.4 64 bit on windows 10 I have:

-turned DRM off and on -disabled and re-enabled widevine -disabling all extensions -try in a private tab -turning off tracking protection -clearing cookies/cache/site data -uninstalling and reinstalling firefox -trying on firefox nightly -trying on other firefox based browsers zen, librefox same issue. chromium based browsers and firefox on my windows 11 laptop play drm content like normal -manually installing older version of widevine -changing useragent to chrome(this triggered cloudflare and would not let me pass) -making another user in windows and trying there

the error i get on crunchyroll is code: DRM-0 and on spotify it loads but the play icon does nothing. in hbo max i get error code 1k-0003

At this point I don't know what else to try, If there is not another solution I probably try to just switch to brave browser or wiping this pc and reinstalling windows.
