Enhanced Tracking Exception & uBlock Origin

I just posted a "Was this page helpful? No" comment saying that Enhanced Tracking Exceptions didn't seem to work for FF Android. Disabling tracking for CNBC didn't "stick" and the site wasn't listed in Exceptions. When enabled, I was seeing a "Corrupted Content" error, and was continually having to tap the Shield to turn Enhanced "off" for the page to load.

Found what appears to be an incompatibility: when uBlock Origin is disabled for CNBC, the Shield/Enhanced-Off/Exceptions list DOES appear to work per the docs. Not sure what in uBlock is triggering the "Corrupted Content" condition for CNBC, but it's very consistent/repeatable. I think the latest versions for both are installed ...

FF Android 157.0.1 (Build #2016188623) uBlock Origin 1.75.0

So the docs ARE correct, but may need a line added that if the Exceptions override doesn't seem to work as described, that there may be a conflicting browser add-on/extension.

I am using Firefox on an Android phone and experiencing frequent YouTube video stuttering and dropped frames. The video playback is not smooth even though my internet connection is stable. The problem happens repeatedly on YouTube, while the same videos play normally in other browsers. Please help me determine whether this is a Firefox performance, hardware acceleration, or video decoding issue and what settings I should check or change.

Does Mozilla plan to optimise Firefox on Android for Desktop devices given that the Googlebook OS was released? It is currently very difficult to use given that I can't select text on webpages, also there's no context menu when right clicking.

In my case, the file being downloaded was named `涩图-20261007T180450Z-1-001.zip`. The network connection was interrupted during the download but re-established, causing the download to resume; however, this actually resulted in the two files shown in the image.

New Motorola android phone demands Google to get other browser

Hi, I just bought a Motorola android, as my good old Tesco phone was getting very creaky. I loaded my home Wi-Fi, but cannot find a page to type in a url to install a search engine and other internet sites. I’d like Firefox, but Google insists on being the 'Gatekeeper', and I must go through it to install Firefox.

How to type in my urls without permitting Google, and getting its intrusive parenting offering me masses of things I don't want? I'm not an expert - just a survivor who has 'got around' glitches since computers arrived in the Seventies. On my phone I just want telephone calls, texts and WhatsApp. Plus, Firefox to search the Internet.

I am sick of the moronic, toddler-aged toy apps which come pre-loaded on my new phone. I gave up 'Play stores', (Woolworths), when I became adult sixty years ago! Now this phone offers me apps like: "Candy Crush, Sugar Delight". Oh Please! I realise that seven-year-olds and early teens are the target phone markets, (parents resignedly footing the bills), but I'm past it (in every sense).

However, I'm not daft enough to delete Google in a hissy fit. It is so labyrinthine that disabling it can be severely punished for such disobedience.

I'm sure the solution is simple to you. Please tell me how!

Thanks, Clive.

P.S. The phone is obviously monitoring my searches! Quite disconcerting, for in the past hour it now presents me with a list of search engines to choose - but Firefox is not among them. God preserve us oldies from AI!
