The enter key only works for a short time in the search bar. Then it stops working, meaning I have to constantly restart. It's not any of my extensions. What is the problem? Is there any solution? Otherwise, Firefox is unusable for me.

It looks like this happen when the search page is not completely downloaded, due slow line or some traffic jam. I see this behaviour on GPRS slow line. When I am waiting long enough, the behaviour changes and Enter works like Enter. Firefox or MS Edge, does not matter.

Do you mean after I type into the search bar I should pause before hitting enter? No, that doesn't work. And I don't have this problem in Edge... or in Chrome.

I found a solution. I set security.tls.enable_0rtt_data to false on the about:config page.
