How much longer will Firefox be down due to server updates on Mozilla.org? ALL of my extensions are disabled for that NLT 15 minute update that's been going on for well over an hour (I know, because my extensions are still disabled and have not yet reset themselves---Mozilla crapping them out, Mozilla returns them to my setup---to the way I had them configured. Specifically, the ones I'm missing the most right now are Tab Sidebar, Tiled Tab Groups, and whichever one(s) make bookmarks/new tabs open in a NEW tab, not clobbering a tab that is currently in use. I did that to open Duck Duck Go a minute ago, and had to re-write this whole support question because, for some reason, Duck Duck Go opened up in this ACTIVELY IN USE tab instead of a new tab. And not only that, it wiped the contents of this support chat window. Sorry, but that is totally UNSAT.

Thanks, jim74, [edited] @jdgblogs.com (which needs to change to [edited] @jstrack,net---how do I do that?), Firefox ESR 91.5.1esr on Slackware v. 15.

I thought I was in support chat (that's what I clicked on---support). Apologies. Either way, I got it upgraded, and after several days of trying to get Firefox back to the way I had it---JUST finished that with getting my tabs and tab groups back, have MOST of my real bookmarks bar bookmarks, extensions back, and most of those I don't have, I don't care about (why I can't find them is a mystery, but irrelevant), and that one I still need to find and add back.). So I'm marking this as solved and closing this tab., and will find and add back that other tab later. I know it's there, just have to remember which one of several it was (it didn't even show up in my list of extensions from the old Firefox, and I've forgotten).

Thanks, everyone.

We don't do any server updates right now. The yellow info on top of this page is about incoming maintenance of support.mozilla.org, while addons.mozilla.org is operational all the time.

For information about your disabled extensions, please read Update Firefox to prevent add-ons issues from root certificate expiration.

As said the yellow bar message was referring only to this support.mozilla.org site and not to all *.mozilla.org sites in general and the system maintenance has not occurred yet today for another 4 1/2 hours from my reply..

This is a community support forum and not some form of direct chat system.

The old Firefox 91.5.1 released back on Jan 27, 2022 is the reason the Extensions you have installed are disabled starting March 14 on. To not have Extensions be disabled and to install new Extensions you should have Firefox 115.13.0esr or later like the current 115.21.0esr or Firefox 128.0 and later.
