Is this something to be concerned about with future sites, or is this an unfortunate, isolated incident? One of my local utility companies is not going to be supporting the use of Firefox on their website any longer. Has anyone else seen anything like this on other sites, or has this been brought up elsewhere? Frankly I find it outrageous and is forcing me and others to use Chromium based browsers (aside from Safari which I don't use).

  • I emailed the company asking for an explanation, and I'm awaiting a reply.

I would share the URL for others to email and help press the company on the issue, but wasn't sure of the guidelines of the forum or if that was appropriate. I'm just irritated and venting sorry =/

Running Firefox 133.0 on Ubuntu 20.04 desktop

Periodically, Firefox will freeze and send the message "Firefox must be restarted to continue". After restarting, Firefox takes a long time to recover. This morning, it took nearly 5 minutes to recover.

Latest Version Private Browsing Mode

Hello.

'Autoplay->Block Video and Audio' selected.

2 websites listed, which I did not place there, 'Allow Audio and Video' selected:

1. about:welcome 2. aboutwelcomeprivate welcome

'Removing' them causes them to be automatically 're-appear.'

Suggestion: about:config, .isolateBy.privateBrowsing,' and change 'True' to False.

Changing the 'above value' does not remove the 2 'allowed' websites nor does it stop A and V from playing automatically.

Not possible to Block all Video and Audio Automatically 'or' am I missing an 'obvious' solution?

'Another' Issue With Firefox:

On my desktop, I view Facebook via the Firefox browser. When viewing posts from other people, the date/time stamp is no longer visible.

Instead, it shows a random series of numbers and digits. However, 'hovering' over it displays the date and time.

Refreshing the page does not work. The issue also occurs on Opera.

'Again,' am I missing an 'obvious' detail here?

Team, I am a longtime user and supporter of FF. I can't tell you how much I love the the layout of Firefox on Windows in v. 133 with the vertical tabs. Just as important is the fantastic, new font rendering. Thank you so much. I used to make multiple adjustments to the font in about:config when I installed FF on Windows. Now, the fonts look fantastic out of the box. Great job, team!

Been using Firefox since the 90s and been on Mac since 2000s. This problem has been happening for about a year, throughout three macbooks (my old one, a temp one, and my new one) and multiple Firefox updates. I'm always updated and always clear cookies daily.

The failure to move bookmarks I can overcome by rebooting Firefox with a Forced Quit. If I only have to do this every few weeks, then no biggy reinserting all my passwords for all the different sites I use (and no, I don't want to use password managers, I don't trust them)

Today it happened within hours of Force Quitting Firefox, this is too much!!!

The only reason I didn't report this problem earlier is I simply expected an eventual newer version of Firefox to fix this bug.

Firefox 133.0

Normal behaviour: click-drag bookmark within bookmark menu pull-down to position where I want bookmark Failure behaviour: click-drag fails to move bookmark, until I reboot Firefox, then it works again

I am trying hard to keep with Firefox and trying to avpoid being sucked into Google Chrome. However am finding it increasingly problems with Firefox. I am am sure I have the latest firefox download but not able to download my Barclaycard statements. I can see my recent transactions so have access to the Barclaycard website but cant download my statements which I can do on Google Chrome and was able to do on Foirefox up until this month!

The only odd thing is in the past I have had to authorise via the app which it tells me to use but doesn't ask me to actually do it and goes straight into my account.

Barclaycard say the problem is with Firefox and they are not in anyway restricting access via Firefox.
