I-Firefox Community Forum

I'm getting totally disgusted with Firefox, Windows 11. FF updates automatically. More and more websites will not open when I'm using the browser, and they open just fine when I switch to another. Since I have used Firefox ever since its inception, it's extremely distressing. It doesn't matter if I turn off ad blocking and tracking software. The latest site that won't open is Substack, which works perfectly okay using the Brave browser. This is probably the 10 instance this month of a website that does not work with FF, including once that always did work just fine.

Other changes are also annoying, but I'll save them for another complaint.

Emails viewed in Firefox with Link to YouTube wants me to log in to YouTube when I click on the link in the email.

I receive a weekly email with a featured bird that when clicked should show me a video of that bird. Before the most recent FireFox update I would get a page that wanted me to log in to YouTube; but, there was no way to do so. Now since the update it works-takes me to the video and runs the video.

Was not working last week but since an update it does work. This is an on and off again problem. I have contacted the people who compose the video with no solution on their part; but, in a few days or weeks when you update your browser it will work! Then with another update it won't work. Off again and on again.

some special characters that i distinctly remember being able to see before are now no longer showing up properly. i'm a fanatic about ancient/prehistoric scripts and was able to see the scripts on the Baybayin Wikipedia page, but i think a few updates ago made this no longer true.

i'm able to see things on other browsers and even in the right-click menu as i have the font needed to see everything installed onto my system (win 10, i dont have security updates enabled. the font is noto sans tagalog, and i've already reinstalled it twice). the setting to allow pages to use their own fonts doesn't seem to do anything, either.

confusingly this is not a problem on my macOS device, where the same page renders correctly without me needing to download any font (i mean, as far as i remember). i think this implies this has something to do with windows, but i'd like to ask in here first.

attached is a screenshot of the wikipedia page showing in firefox on windows 10, and the right-click window displaying the script correctly.

Hello,

I am using my macbook air 2020 with the Apple M1 chip and the OS is Sonoma 14.7.4, to try and log in to Poshmark.ca https://poshmark.ca/ using my Google credentials and the screen looks like it is going to log in but then goes back to the main screen. I deleted the cookies for the site, but that did not work. I am not sure what else to do? Can you help me?

Thank you.

When I try to log into twitter (X) I get a pop up saying I'm blocked due to suspicious log in activity, that I have tried to log in too many times. I had not tried to log in for days. I do not get this message and can log into X on other platforms, including chrome and Edge. I prefer to use Firefox. This started happening after I uploaded the newest Firefox upgrade on 3/3/26, I run windows 10.

Youtube is pretty much unusable for me after the newest update. It loads fine the first time after I open or restart Firefox but after than it slow down to a crawl and it takes minutes for anything to load when I click on videos and menu buttons. It's not my internet since the website works fine in other browsers and it also works fine in private mode in Firefox for some reason. I tried clearing caches, permissions and anything related to youtube in my Firefox profile folder. I also tried creating a new profile and it does the same thing. The only way for it to work normally is using private mode.

Why do I today get the message "We have received an unusually large amount of requests from your IP so you have been rate limited" when I try and access https://www.trustpilot.com. I have not had it before today and do not get it when I use a different browser (Edge).

Good morning,

I'm trying to fill a module online, but I keep getting this error message: "JavaScript has been disabled, the form requires JavaScript to validate properly. Please enable JavaScript through Preferences under the Edit menu and reopen the form." I tried following the instructions and also explored every other possibility described in support sections and such but didn't fix the issue. Any other way to solve the problem?

Re-occuring Captcha message when i attempt to sign into Facebook. .. 3 days now .... why ??

I have cleared cache. - history - ran virus and malware scans. ... nothing works to stop this Captcha thing

148.0 disabled access to my banking site - same in 149.0. Sign-in screen OK, then a blank page! Site has "additional Permissions" and shows certified. Have to use Edge to access, Suggestions?'

Takes up to 30 minutes to sign in to my online banking account. Sign in with user id and password, get a "swirlly" for a long time, little messages at the left bottom of screen, when the screen finally appears, the graphics display as place hold words which make no sense. Contacted AllegacyFCU and they say it's on your side . . . recommend Chrome? I'm running Win 11Pro. Edge goes right in.

AirTable.com online app attached documents are downloading when selected to view. Not a problem in 148. Not happening on other browsers.

When you go to aol.com, there is a panel at the top with rotating pictures and headlines of current news events, which you can then click to go to the full article. The pictures are still there, and clicking on them will still go to the full article, but the headlines have disappeared. It still works ok on Edge, so it appears to be a Firefox problem, not an AOL or Windows problem. I have tried rebooting, clearing browsing data, updating to very latest Firefox version (I had been 2 or 3 versions out of date), turning off enhanced tracking protection for the AOL.com website, and allowing full cookies and site data for aol.com as an exception. My security protection is the standard Windows package, but I do not allow the cloud based or automatic sample submission aspects. I happened one other time a few months ago, but clearing cookies/cache solved it that time. No such luck so far this time.
