Automatically deleting sites from History

Hello. I'm not sure if this is the correct place to bring up my concern. So, I apologize in advance if it's not.

I volunteer with a domestic violence organization. The group's website (180NJ.org) has a "panic button" function where a DV victim could bail out instantly if their abuser confronts them. When you hit the "Safety Exit" button, it changes the page to weather.com and Google comes up in a new tab. This is so an abuser can't see what the victim was looking at, for the victim's safety. When using Chrome and Edge, the DV site is removed from the History. When using Firefox, it is not removed from the History. I've brought this to the attention of the organization's IT people and was told that this is probably due to differences in the browsers themselves.

I'm not an IT person myself and have no idea what's involved in all of this. But, I just wanted to bring it to your attention, in case it's something you can work out. Thank you.

Why Can't Firefox's Auto-Fill Put in the Correct Passwords for Firefox/Mozilla's own Sites?

Sometime I can sign in, sometimes I can't, and have no idea why this is so. I tried logging in to the Mozilla Support site, but at first the auto-fill kept putting in log-in info for a completely other site. Then when I looked up the correct info, and entered it manually, I got: "Your account has been blocked after multiple consecutive login attempts"

And that's all, no mention of what options I had, reset the password, or how long I would be blocked from logging in, nothing, but that my account was blocked!! Then I tried to log into the community forum, and that went fine, so why not the log in to the Support site???? I've logged into both many times previously, yet all too often, there is some glitch or another, stopping me from logging in. Why does FF's own auto-fill feature not get it right? Isn't that the point to it, so we can be logged in automatically?

If I'm having some kind of issue with the browser, and need to seek help, the last thing I want to deal with is being prevented from even getting to do so! How can I get this to stop happening?

I have been having issues where I am unable to access the website: www.loki.ch. This is the web site for a Swiss railway magazine. I have always been able to access it previously, but haven't used it now for a few months. However this week when I've tried, I'm blocked access to it (see the attached screen shots). I do note that since I had previously access the web site, there have been updates to Firefox. However, when trying to use either Edge or Google Chrome, they also block me, but just say that unable to access the web site, nothing mentioned about being "Not Secure" as Firefox does. It's not a web site where you have to log in and/or use passwords. Contacting the magazine by Facebook messenger yields no response from them. Posting the issue on a Facebook group, other users have responded that they can access it (one was from Slovenia and the other in the UK). One mentioned issues from Australia where I am. It's not a dangerous or suspect web site, simply a magazine about Swiss Model Trains. I have tried adjusting settings to exempt it in Settings - no change. Not a anti virus issue. None of the suggestions in the FAQ have exactly the same scenario in the screen shots attached.

Surely there has to be some way to bypass whatever is in Firefox Security preventing me from accessing this web site?

I would like to control the animation speed of .GIF (ie on Wikipedia). I would like to stop, manual single step or play frames one per duration (ie 1 frame every 2 sec or 1 frame every .5 sec). I would also like to control whether it repeats. I would like to freeze at any point then resume playing given the above settings.

How do I do this?

PS: There may be other types of animation files which the above control could apply to as well.

Thank you kindly for any guidance!

I am running the latest public stable release of Firefox, 151.0.1 (aarch64), and these last few weeks I've been getting prompted to grant my location over and over every time I do a Google search. In MacOS, I've granted Firefox location permission and I've repeatedly saved me giving google permission but it doesn't stop. This is happening on my MacBook Pro and Mac Studio.

Anyone else? Any tips? It's maddening. lol

I like the concept of having various news articles & topics of interest on the Start Page. However, I don't like the fact that many of the links take me to "subscriber only" sites, and ones that I have no subscription to! We should be able to eliminate those sites we can't read the articles on, it would be pretty easy to have that option, instead of our having to waste time, going on wild goose chases!

And I first attempted to log in to the feedback & suggestions page, however Firefox's own password auto-fill, kept putting in the wrong password, (one for a completely different site), and when I searched to find the correct password, it was too late. Soon as I entered the correct one, it locked me out, saying too many consecutive attempts had been made! To make it worse, the error message gave no info as to what my next step should be!! It didn't say to try later, how much later, provided no link to a page to reset my password, no "forgot password" option, nothing. Why is logging in on Mozilla's own, various sites, always seem to be so buggy? I've had more issues just trying to log in, than I ever should have, no idea why this happens so often, although with the auto-fill inputting the wrong information, that could be one reason.

Youtube freezes constantly and irreversably

I have no idea what is happening. Whenever I try to use youtube on firefox the site just freezes. I can still scroll up and down, but nothing that wasn't already loaded loads, I can't click on anything, and nothing except scrolling does anything.

The reload, home, and even screenshot buttons don't work in these frozen youtube tabs. The only way to do anything is to open a new tab and close the frozen youtube one.

Youtube is completely unusable because of this.

I turned off every single addon, I restarted firefox, I restarted the entire computer, I tried in a private tab. It still freezes every time.

I don't have a VPN, I do not have the problem on any other website (even other media-players), and I don't have a clue what is happening.

I do have youtube premium.

Any help would be appreciated. I need to watch stuff for my studies but I just can't

After the latest update, a website I use (https://compcon.app/) started throwing the following errors:

downloadable font: CFF : Failed validating CharStrings INDEX (font-family: "Helvetica Bold" style:normal weight:700 stretch:100 src index:0) source: https://compcon.app/assets/Helvetica-Bold-DaBjwqT2.otf downloadable font: CFF : Failed to parse table (font-family: "Helvetica Bold" style:normal weight:700 stretch:100 src index:0) source: https://compcon.app/assets/Helvetica-Bold-DaBjwqT2.otf downloadable font: rejected by sanitizer (font-family: "Helvetica Bold" style:normal weight:700 stretch:100 src index:0) source: https://compcon.app/assets/Helvetica-Bold-DaBjwqT2.otf

It can't load the font the website is asking it to use and is replacing it with a default one instead.

Do you know how to fix this? Either on my end or theirs?
