What's wrong with the new release?

Today i decided try the new firefox(140) since it's going to be ESR, but i'm getting hot-fan from a couple of tabs (particularly video streams). Second it's slower and seems to have 4second delay for shutdown..

The laptop is running linux mint with intel i5 (11th), tigerlake (iris xe) gpu. It might not be newest, but it shouldn't have a problem with regular web browsing.

Is it a bug? like it's not maxing my ram or cpu during use.

Hi. I'm asking this question because I'm not quite sure how to describe this issue through a Google search. Recently, I've noticed that whenever I click and drag anything, an icon will pop up while I'm doing so. Attached is an example, I click-and-dragged on the "Learn More" hyperlink off to the right.

Is there any way to disable the icon that pops up? It bothers me and seems to slow things down, which isn't ideal. I'm not the most well-versed when it comes to Firefox's more advanced settings (the options in about:config and whatnot) so I wouldn't know where to start.

Tab groups being returned to Firefox desktop a couple of months ago is one of my favourite features, which makes my life significantly better. However, I cannot find any information on its presence in Firefox Android. Is it added and not well documented? Is it not added? Is there a plan to add it to Firefox Android?

I have autoconfig.js set up to run my own js file, see below. The intention is to change the keyboard shortcuts (shame that it's so difficult😃). It worked until a few weeks ago. Now it only partly works. C+J is fine. The other two succeed in deleting the existing command, and the shortcut key does nothing. Any ideas please?

// C+J = open downloads var element = document.getElementById('key_openDownloads'); if (element) {

 element.setAttribute('key', 'j');
 element.setAttribute('modifiers', 'accel');

}

// C+D = Duplicate tab var element = document.getElementById('addBookmarkAsKb'); if (element) {

 element.removeAttribute('command');
 element.setAttribute('oncommand', "duplicateTabIn(gBrowser.selectedTab, 'tab')");

}

// CS+N = move tab to new window var element = document.getElementById('key_undoCloseWindow'); if (element) {

 element.removeAttribute('command');
 element.setAttribute('oncommand', 'gBrowser.replaceTabsWithWindow(gBrowser.selectedTab)');

}

I use add-ons to store my writing drafts. For stability, I need to reinstall my OS and Firefox. Will Firefox Sync transfer the add-on data, or just the add-ons? Can you transplant the Storage files for those, or are there tools to decrypt them?

(This is copied nearly directly from a post on r/firefox made a few hours ago—I decided it was best to spread it here for more exposure. The only change was the removal of the add-on names from the title due to character limits; these are Form History Control and Text Area Cache.)

I hope the title explains what I am looking for well. My main computer has had... spooky behavior with its file system recently, and I have been recommended to make a back-up, format my drive, and re-install my operating system (possibly upgrading from Windows 10 to 11 in the process). The biggest hold-up to me doing so is this, as I have no idea how to transfer the extension data between installs, or convert it into a human-readable form. The sheer number of writing drafts in those extensions both make losing them an unacceptable situation and copying the data manually into a document entirely impractical. So, can anyone help me with this? For context, I was on Firefox 138.0 when I stopped using my main computer due to those issues. (Note: It will certainly last long enough to do the Firefox Syncing and other back-up operations, just not for many more weeks or months.)

A few months ago, my Firefox browser became corrupted and I had to delete and re-install it. My browser now works, and I don't have any issues downloading new documents, but every document I'd downloaded on my first browser that was labelled a Firefox PDF document is now corrupted. I can work around it on my own computer, but if I try to email the documents to someone else they just get the corrupted file. I've tried converting the PDFs into a different type of document and then reconverting them to PDFs, but the PDF version is still corrupted. Is there any way to fix this? Or is my only option converting everything to a different type of document?

Description: while viewing videos on youtube, twitch, odysee (and possibly other sites with videos), the video player may suddenly stop playing, and after that, no video in firefox can be played. Restarting the browser makes this issue disappear for a while, but i'd like a permanent solution.

What i've tried so far: Disabling uBlock Clearing cache and cookies Enabling/Disabling hardware acceleration Disabling proxy extension Disabling antivirus on PC.
