I am seeing a very odd behavior. Sometimes, not always, it takes two or sometimes even three clicks to go to a link, especially bookmarks for some reason. That and at times I have to click on the address bar and hit enter even if I clicked a link to go to a new site. Mostly this happens with bookmarks and history items, but not always. I have disabled hardware acceleration and my few add-ons, I even put Firefox into safe mode to try to diagnose the issue further. Unfortunately I'm still lost and the issue presists. Any thoughts?

I'm using macOS Sonoma 14.1.2 and Firefox was just installed yesterday 120.0.1. The only extensions I have are AdGuard and 1Password.

I have noticed that when it occurs, I see the reload button cycle between the X and the Reload icon for like half a second and then does nothing else until I click on it. I have checked my Internet connection and it has been stable.

This problem just started recently, where I can't unmount an external USB drive without getting this error message:

The disk "Projects" couldn't be ejected because "Firefox" is using it.

I hate to keep quitting FF just to unmount a USB drive - that means logging in again to various web accounts.

My only extensions running right now are Enhancer for YouTube, Grammarly, and Facebook Container.

What's preventing me from unmounting a USB drive?

Thanks!
