Hi Mozilla team,

I’d like to report a serious issue with Firefox lately. The browser has been performing very poorly and frequently becomes “Not Responding.” In many cases, websites fail to load properly or get stuck indefinitely, even though my internet connection is working normally.

I’m experiencing these issues on the latest version of Windows 11 with the latest version of Firefox. This has become quite frustrating and significantly affects my daily browsing experience.

I hope the Firefox team can investigate these stability and website-loading issues and provide a fix soon. Firefox used to be much more reliable, but recently the overall experience has been very disappointing.

Thank you.

For some reason something is blocking my messages to myself. (Parenthetically, I send messages to myself to be able to preserve certain information) After subscribing to bitwarden (which may have been my mistake) I sent a message to my email address. I received the following:

Mail Delivery Subsystem <mailer-daemon@googlemail.com>

12:18 PM (5 hours ago) to me Error Icon Address not found Your message wasn't delivered to rccoledge@gmail.com because the address couldn't be found, or is unable to receive mail. LEARN MORE The response was:

Review your blocked sender list

Soo, I went looking for the "blocked sender list" And the instructions are as follows:

Important: If you can’t find the sender’s message, you can unblock them from your Gmail settings.

   On your computer, open Gmail.
   At the top right, open Settings settings.
   Click See all settings.
   At the top, click Filters and Blocked Addresses.
   Optional: To unblock, you can:
       Check the box next to each sender.
       Click Unblock selected addresses.

However, after opening Settings, I saw no "all settings" There was mo Filters and Blocked Addresses at the top

Soo, where are the Filters and Blocked Addresses, me asks? Win 11 on a Maingear MG-1 Firefox; Gmail

Not sure if anyone else has realized this but Akamai / Edgesuite is using its algorithms to force people to stop using fire fox The reason that I see this is that I run a server with almost 100 web sites on it and Firefox has dropped from being quite significant a couple of years back. This is from one site of the almost 100 but is quite typical.

Google Chrome No 1,568 62.9 % 1,867 56.6 % Safari No 589 23.6 % 816 24.7 % Firefox No 191 7.6 % 427 12.9 %

There are a number of requests opened about this but the only solution seems to be to switch to chrome. A massive number of major store sites are now using akamai / edgesuite and almost no-one using firefox can visit their stores now because of an error produced and there does not appear a simple solution for a person to even reach them. Some of the stores are Lowes, Tractor Supply, CVS, and others.

The last response was 14 August for numerous queries. All still outstanding in my support log. Am I looking at yet another failing brand that didn't adapt and whose market share crashed ? Just looking to get out now and find another browser. Astonishing. The bad moves and mismanagement... All there to read about from business analyses sites. Unbelievable.

After updating from Firefox 154 to 155.0 on Windows 11, the download progress indicator on the Windows taskbar icon no longer appears at all.

What I see: - While a download is in progress, only the circular progress on the in-window Downloads button is visible. - There is no progress bar/fill on the Firefox taskbar icon, even when the window is focused and the Downloads panel is open. - In Firefox 154 this taskbar progress worked. - Chrome on the same PC still shows download progress on the taskbar correctly.

I checked about:config for anything related to taskbar/download progress and found nothing that controls this.

Is the Windows taskbar download progress still expected to work in Firefox 155, or was it removed/changed? Has anyone else noticed this?

Thanks.

Sometime in the last week or two, every page starts with a banner that says "you must sign in to the internet to continue". I'm already/always signed in. On those few occasions when I click on the network login link (rather than clicking X to dismiss this dangerous and wrong banner), it shows a very dangerous site and says that site is prohibited. (As it should be.) So why is the banner demanding that I log in (forcing me to click X to dismiss it)? This feels like your site has been compromised, that some malicious actor is forcing this prompt on every page. (And even after I click X to dismiss it, it reappears 10-15 minutes later.

The recent changes to the right-click menu on YouTube are a backward step. The menu is now cluttered with options I don't use, while the useful “Open in New Window” option has disappeared. I regularly use this function and having to use Shift+click instead is unnecessarily inconvenient. Please consider restoring “Open in New Window” to the context menu. Not every new feature is an improvement, and sometimes the simple, familiar options are the ones users actually want.

Yesterday, I could log into my credit union account with Firefox on my Win10 desktop; today, after a Firefox update, I can't. I switched to Chrome, and logged right in. Called the credit union and was told it was the new Firefox update. Can I switch back to the prior Firefox version? Thanks!

Can you please enlighten me on the internal protocol FF follows when downloads are set to "Always ask you were to save files"? I want that dialog to always default to the previously used folder, but it only does that about 70% of the time (in my guesstimation). The rest of the time it randomly decides it doesn't want to do that and it will pop up the Windows Downloads folder instead.

Sometimes it will do that even right in the middle of a mass-download session where I'm downloading, say, 15 items, doing the right-click/save thing, and after 10 items in which the Save-to dialog has defaulted to the folder I want, it will suddenly decide that it wants to go back to Windows Downloads, and because I'm on autopilot with my keystroke routine, I might go through all 5 final downloads before I notice that it's not saving to the right folder anymore. This is EXTREMELY annoying.

What prompts my current post is that I've just started another session of about 10-15 downloads, but this time I'm five files in and FF is still refusing to default to my desired folder. It's not uncommon for it to take two tries before the folder I want sticks, but not five. It's now officially way uncool to continue navigating there every single damn time.

So please tell me why this happens.

And no, please don't recommend that I temporarily change the default downloads folder and just set it to permanently download there, then change it back to "Always ask" after each session. First, that's an unworthy kludge. Second, I always change the filenames of downloaded files--if nothing else, I always remove underscores or spaces to conserve filename length because I've been severely bitten by that limitation once too many times. Therefore I must use the "Always ask" dialog. It's why I don't usually use Downthemall, fab piece of software though it be.

TIA. NB: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1591345 is a similar question but answer offered no help. Also after 5 more file downloads during my current session in which FF continues to never default to the previously used folder, I've just given up and stopped downloading for now.

I am trying to restore my firefox bookmarks and passwords from a back up I saved. I am signed into firefox in my browser, I go to restore back up and firefox restars and my bookmarks appearm but I'm signed out of firefox. When I sign back in, my profiles and bookmarks disappear?

You used to be able to view all of your synced tabs from other devices by going into the toolbar menu > your profile > the device name but I went in today to pull a tab from my phone onto my laptop and it only shows about 5 tabs total. You have to click "see all # tabs" which then opens in the sidebar of the browser. I hate the sidebar, it just does not work well with my brain/visualization needs, and have been doing everything i can to avoid it. Is there a way for me to revert the display settings of synced tabs specifically? As I use them frequently enough that I am going to have to look into changing browsers if I continue to have to utilize the sidebar
