I've just updated my Linux Mint to 22.1 and Firefox to 142 on two computers. Both show the same behaviour. On websites of the Stackexchage family (Stackoverflow, Superuser, Crossvalidated, Academia...) the comment function seems to not work anymore. I am not offered a button to comment, and clicking buttons to see more comments that are already there don't show the comments but rather send me to the top of the page. I can still answer. The problem seems to be with Firefox 142 as it worked well before the update, and it still works well with Firefox 142 on Mac and other browsers on Linux.

This looks like a minor bug, not sure whether it is specific to Stackexchange or other websites are affected, too. Is there any help? If not, where can I file a bug report?

I am using Tor browser, which is based on Firefox. The 'About' tab says this: 14.5.6 (based on Mozilla Firefox 128.14.0esr)

When I sign in, it tells me that: "Some of Tor Browser's security features may offer less protection on your current operating system."

And it directs me to the following page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/linux-security-warning?as=u&utm_source=inproduct

-- which directs me to set up a file called 'firefox-local' with specific contents. I have created this file; and pasted the recommended contents into it, and saved it.

I am then directed to issue the following command: sudo systemctl restart apparmor.service

-- which I have done. But that returns the following error: Job for apparmor.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status apparmor.service" and "journalctl -xeu apparmor.service" for details.

systemctl status apparmor.service gives the following output: × apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles

I don't know how to make heads or tails of this. Apparently the profile failed to load. According to the file documentation, it expects firefox to be located in '/home/<USER>/bin/firefox/' but I am running a version through Snap. and I think it is installed in '/snap/firefox/6700/usr/lib/firefox/firefox'

Is that the trouble; and how do I fix it? Grateful for any assistance; sorry for the data dump.

The release notes for 142.0 say:

  Keep an active tab visible in a collapsed tab group
  Focus on just one tab in a group without the clutter. Your active tab stays in view, keeping
  things tidy even with the group collapsed.

But it does not define what an "active tab" is. I usually have a group which never collapses, it always has one or more tabs visible no matter what I do. Is this a bug? Or is there some way to stop tabs from being 'active'?

Enabling HDR (gfx.wayland.hdr) on Linux CachyOS causes random lines to appear on the screen, both vertically and horizontally seemingly at random. Perhaps important to note that the OS originally didn't recognize my laptop display's HDR capability so I had to "force" it on with KWIN_FORCE_ASSUME_HDR_SUPPORT=1, but it still can't actually read the display's specs from EDID. Disabling gfx.wayland.hdr fixes the issue but I do really like HDR so I think I'm willing to live with it for now.

Mudei de computador e ao entrar com a chave de recuperação de conta, é informado de que ela está inválida. Ao tentar alterar minha senha sem a chave é informado erro, que não é possível realizar a operação. Quando tento alterar minha chave de recuperação , só tem opção de fazer a alteração entrando na minha conta, sendo que estou tentando alterar por não ter a chave de recuperação. Como posso sincromizar novamente ou gerar uma nova chave?
