Firefox switching between tabs freezes on Ubuntu Firefox 89 and 90(beta)

Basically, what it says in the title. Not so long time ago I started noticing that Firefox starts randomly "freezing" when switching between tabs (most often) and clicking on links within webpages. I put "freezing" in quotation marks, because it's not really frozen - I can click on the tab and interface would respond, but showing new tab wouldn't happen. I made a video and shared it on Google Drive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IBVhYru58l5xlfkz7GrvYuscWqCoC_gH/view?usp=sharing

Few things to consider: 1) Bug present in both latest stable and beta versions 2) Bug still present in completely clean installation of Firefox, without any add-ons and not signed-in in the account 3) I use v2ray and Qv2ray to bypass internet restrictions of a country where I am currently at. It seems that "freezing" has to do with poor internet connection. Has anyone encountered similar problems?

On my new PC with a fresh and fully up to date installation of Windows 10, Firefox tabs keep crashing for no reason.

Ticking all the boxes they give me in the crashed tab and hitting reload/refresh tab is unlikely to actually fix the tab. I have to hit that button at least 5 times to maybe get the tab working again and even then it's basically a coin-toss whether it actually gets fixed or not.

I have 7 firefox.exe.(number).dmp files with no way to upload them here but if there is an way to do that please let me know so I can provide additional data.

Please help me with this ASAP, I'd rather continue to use Firefox on my new machine than go back to Chrome. Thank you.

I was stupid enough to update to v90.0 and as per every update mozilla fucks up: my default browser is gone missing.

When I click the firefox link in my start menu a firefox opens. When I click a link in my email program, ANOTHER firefox opens.

This is so EXTREMELY frustrating! It happens _every_ time an unwanted, unneeded and bad update is shoved down my throat. Why ? why is this so? why does this happen?How do I fix it (again)?

Tab placement & behavior Firefox 90

Help! In Firefox 89 (as in all previous) all open tabs lined up at the top (first screen shot). When I updated to 90, they disappeared and only one (current) tab shows up at bottom right (second screen shot). I cannot find a way to see all open tabs as before - only when I close the current tab will the entire lineup of open tabs show for a moment and then go back to the single current open tab. I can't work this way and it's driving me crazy. I've searched online, tried changing settings in about:config and nothing seems to want to put all open tabs back up top where they were. What am I missing? (More - I am trying to upload a screen shot and just get the spinning gear. The file is below the upload size limit. I'm going to try submitting this anyway.)

I installed Firefox Multi-Account Containers and found it working OK, on most pages. On some however it prevents me from logging in, for example on https://login.blau.de (German mobile phone provider) I end up consistently in an error message that "for technical reasons this website is not available". I don't get this error when I login with a browser WITHOUT Firefox Multi-Account Containers enabled. Why do I run into an error when logging in on some sites, but not on all? How can I disable MAC for specific websites?

FBI's suggestion was to start with an IC3 Complaint. I forgot to tell you. They tried to erased the almost 100GB of evidence I have including the 18GB of devastating evidence against them. Well they infected 3 hardware devices I own hoping that I would insert the flash drives with the evidence in the computer and then they can wipe them clean. I lost 75GB but recovered 52GB from a back up scheme I had. Most important: Now I have them in the act of setting up their trap in my computer, plus I have 3 hardware devices infected with their code. One is a USB type A to USB type C adapter by Belkin. they know the whole thing. I spoke to their security all the way to their corporate offices. As you know they're also a defense contractor. The 2nd device is a 3.3 USB reader by SanDisk (Western Digital). I started telling them until they blocked me. So they only know their device was modify to do evil. But I didn't have time to tell them that 2 additional devices suffered the same thing. So, SanDisk thinks they are the only company. The 3rd device is from Kingston it's 3.0 USB card reader but but the time I finished with SanDisk I couldn't communicate with Kingston. Unless the security force from Belkin told them, they are unaware that their device was used for nefarious purposes by MS and GGL (But attempt to abbreviate.) Bottom line I have the dramatic footage of 18GB and 3 hardware devices. of their code. I hope these info gets to you. I have to take a tiny break. I'm sending you these so it won't disappear, And additional items in 45 minutes at the latest. As always, Thank you

A few minutes ago I had this error, I searched all over the internet but nobody gave a concrete solution.

I tried everything: clear cookies, reset firefox, etc.

The only person who gave a solution was to restore windows in a clean installation.

It turns out that for a rare reason my computer woke up with the time misconfigured, I configured it and tried to access some files that I had in google drive, but it showed that error and it had been trying to solve it for 2 hours. Well, it turns out that I had set the time wrong and instead of putting "AM" I put "PM" that is to say, it was 12 hours apart.

I configured everything again and with the correct time and that solved the problem, I hope someone will use this information.

Hi community.

A week or so ago, all the fonts on LinkedIn turned white against the white background of the page. The page works fine in other browsers. I haven't installed any new extensions but I did try refreshing Firefox to no avail.

Does anyone have any additional ideas for me to try?

Good Morning,

I accidentally deleted my browsing history on Firefox for "all time". One of the pages I used to access an office email address on Outlook to which I have forgotten the passcode. I turned off the computer and turned it back on unfortunately. I am wondering if there is another way to find past browsing history?

Thank you.
