Hi, I have noticed that recently the URL link in the posts, and the video in the post are not displayed when using X (formerly Twitter). Initially I thought my security software blocked the contents, but I do not have such issues when used another web browser on the same PC, or the app on my Android.

Could you please let me know how to fix these? I have a lot of bookmarks and passwords saved, so I do not want to lose them.

Thank you for your help in advance!

Your PC doesn't have an app that can open this link. Try looking for a compatible app in the Microsoft Store.

Is this Microsofts way of saying "Use Edge?" Can I change settings to make it work?

When I'm using the adress bar, I would like to see suggested bookmarks before suggested browsing history. I don't want to turn off the suggestions from browsing history, but in 99% the suggested bookmark is what I'm looking for. It would save me a few seconds every time I'm using the adress bar if the websites, which I wilfully decided to add to my bookmarks, are suggested before any website I only visited once. Best regards

FF sometimes doesn't open links from email, and sometimes other links in a site. Frustrating when I need that download but can't get it. I disabled all my extensions, closed and reopened FF, but it didn't change anything. Had this problem with Brave too and it got so bad it was inopperable and had to delete it. I'm using Google for DNS.

Any help is appreciated

I'm trying to use a script which requires a question mark after the "dot com." I.e., if the url should be http://www.URL.com?custom_URL, it changes it to http://www.URL.com/?custom_URL. How to I keep it from changing the URL - and what is the point of jamming that slash in there in the first place?

I have been building websites on and off for many years using Notepad++, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP. During development and maintenance, I heavily use Firefox and Firefox Developer Edition on the computer where I build the sites (both editions are affected). I also have many notes on an offline website.

Recently, the links in these offline websites no longer work in Firefox. They function as usual in Microsoft Edge and the newly installed Vivaldi 7. They also work on an old laptop with an older version of Firefox. I think the issue was introduced in one of the recent updates. Could you please look into this? Otherwise, I cannot use Firefox as an offline browser and the developers add-ons on my laptop anymore.

Kind regards, Martijn de Jong

I sent this message to Mozilla support in Dutch and would like to send an English translation as well.

Do you have a solution for this issue?

hi everyone, first of all, happy new year.

while browsing reddit, i keep seeing these strange underlined empty links on random words/names. for example this comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/moviecritic/comments/1hpse0f/comment/m4jxdwq/ shows the name of actress underlined.

i disabled all my extensions and the problem persisted. i checked using chrome and the problem didn't exist.

on inspect element i found something called faceplate-tracker though.

any clue what is this? and how to deal with it?

Hello,

I have a Mac desktop running Seqouia 15.1.1, and I'm using Firefox, primarily.

Inside LinkedIn, the "see more" link is missing in people's profile sections. I can;t expand any of these sections to read them in full.

They are present in Chrome. They are present on my iPhone.

I've reset everything I can think of but nothing impacts it. Also, this is a fairly new problem. So, something updated that caused this but Idk what.

The attached images give examples.

1st image (FF): Where the "..." is, a "see more" text link should also appear. 2nd image (CH): "See more" is present.
