Disabling "run studies" telemetry breaks websites?!?

This is pretty shady Mozilla.

When disabling only one setting: "Allow Firefox to install and run studies" it wrecks this site whether logging is or continuing as guest:

https://appointment.questdiagnostics.com/schedule-appointment/as-personal-information

Even after logging in and everything running normal, disabling the studies run by Mozilla and a quick refresh breaks the functionality of the page. All cookies were accepted and the sharing of location was allowed. On a fresh, first run, wide open Firefox people. Literally, the only change that was made was unchecking that one box. In disbelief, i tested it over and over.

Why would disabling a telemetry setting, something that should be optional, cause this to happen? Seriously, what could possibly be the reason. I'd love to hear it.

This was the final nail in the coffin to me and this is since the 0.9x days.

Please indulge this silly question. What possible benefit is there for Mozilla continuing to list this page with the very first, oldest Firefox release at the the top, requiring the user, every time they visit, to scroll to the middle of the page to search out the current latest version instead of having the chronological order from latest to oldest instead?

Your browser needs immediate attention! I have windows 11. When I visit websites via Firefox and click on a link that takes me to a document, a large pop-up on the lower right side of the screen appears blocking half the page and preventing me from downloading or printing it. The pop-up depicts a cartoon-letter with a highlighter pen traversing its cartoon-text, below which is an enthusiastic missive stating (and I quote): "Now you can highlight your PDFs! With our new highlighter tool, you can read and edit PDFs in one place." Because of this infernal nuisance, I cannot print or download web pages. This has been going on for WEEKS! (That pop-up is USEFUL?! Who thinx up this stuff??!!) Apparently you're having trouble fixing this problem ... I understand--I'll just use Edge or Chrome from now on. Sorry if I woke you.

Dear Support I have opted to use the Firefox browser mainly due to the provision of fixed “Bookmarks” on the left-hand side of the screen, not provided by others. However, I am experiencing lot of problems with Firefox , including: - Freezing pages - Images are not fully displayed - No internet connection at pick times - Hanging on certain pages - Delay opening various web pages - etc The above issues have become more prevalent recently forcing me to use Google Chrome. I have now learnt that when FireFox goes down due to one of the above issues, I have to switch to Google Chrome for access to the relevant pages and generally the WWW. I have no option but to abandon the failing FireFox, if the failures continue. Thanks Harry Elm London

So apparently I already had a firefox acct usin my main email from a long time ago and I have one I signed into most recently usin my secondary email. I just had to update my firefox so thats where it all got confusing but I updated successfully and just bookmarked my tabs so I could find em when I started usin updated firefox. im on my laptop and it lets u keep both versions. Not only that but I realized I'd been usin firefox for -I have no idea how long, w/o even signing in! So Idk where all those bkmarks got saved to if I wasnt signed in 4 wks or months...I assumed it wasnt possible to do stuff like that unless u were actually signed in, but now Idk where all of the settings, things i saved or anythin else I adjusted specifically to me would be now since it was all done w/o bein signed into a specific acct! I think a few yrs ago was the 1st time I realized u even COULD have a firefox acct cuz I thought id been usin my fire fox 4 yrs w/o one & had a whole bunch of saved pws that were either saved while not signed into anythin or perhaps a few were saved when I 1st made the acct. I also remember tryin to login when somethin informed me I had an account, which I didnt realize and...o wait I remember now.. I think id been signed in on my laptop 4 yrs w/o realizing I was, & had saved pws, bk marks etc BUT my comp was about to be non-usable due to some internet safety update those of us w/old computers had been getting as a courtesy for yrs that we wouldnt be gettin anymore (all comps older than 2010) & I was forced to get a new laptop in order to keep usin the internet safely. Obvi I planned to transfer everythin id saved in my firefox to the new laptop but I couldnt find any of my acct info like pw, accnt name or anythin despite literally bein signed in. I remember thinkin, "guess I can never sign out cuz ill never be able to get back in" & eventually I had to use the new laptop so id be usin firefox w/o bein signed in, regardless- so this 2nd account I "just" realized I had, must be that one- which I still cannot access, I assume. Don't recall why I couldnt get any of the info while I was originally signed in but eventually I had to use the new laptop & that firefox obvi wasnt signed in, so all my stuff was lost (I think.) I mustve made a new acct since theres one wit my other email I was able to login to today, but Ive been usin the browser on my laptop (and phone, i believe) w/o bein signed in 4 some time. I need help, Idk wat to do bout the accts & the dead one I cant access. I dont have the best memory due to ADD & the many meds I take so I can't be sure what I'v said is accurate. I need help figuring out whats actually goin on wit my accounts, if possible. I'm sorry I can't be more sure on the details. How do I even get in contact with customer support about this? When I kept searching about my problem the only escalation the site would tell me about was to ask a question to this which I now realize is just aq community forum and no one here can help me link my account to combine them into one. I need tech support 4 that.

Long time user of Firefox and this issue of the Recaptcha Failed while never even opening the Recaptcha for selecting all the bikes, buses or whatever else it asks you to find in order to validate. This is a new install of the latest version of Firefox, I have no problem with Recaptcha using Chrome but prefer Firefox's privacy. I pay bills, work jobs from the internet which requires recaptcha to work in the browser I am using. I have not seen a answer anywhere to fix this problem which only happens in Firefox. Image of error message attached.

Ever since the latest Firefox upgrade to version 135.0, my Epson 3760 printer pauses between each page when more than one page is requested to print continuously. This pause before each page didn't happen before the upgrade. I now have to go into my printer queue and select each item in the queue to have it resume printing - one at a time. I'm on Windows 11 with an LG laptop.
