Most times when I go to a new page via a link, I go to scroll down on the new page but the page refreshes with the circle up top instead. I have to cancel the refresh with scrolling upward to cancel the refresh before scrolling down to view the content. Its a very annoying bug and I bet alot of users are having the same issue too.

Thanks

If I am on a website that is still loading in Firefox and want to change to another URL, then Firefox does not stop loading the old page. Once I click the "X", then it loads the new URL webpage. Shouldn't it stop getting data from the old URL the instant I load a new URL?

As long as my computer doesn't go to sleep Im fine. If it does, when i open firefox, i must refresh to be able to find my bookmarks and passwords. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance! Micha

Every since the new Android version came out in mid January, it's been annoying to browse.

Sometimes it takes several seconds to open, close, or switch tabs.

Overall it feels sluggish to scroll and view pages.

Using latest version 147.0.4.

I am just an average end user and want to alert you to my problems and would love a solution. I am sorry that I don't have the kind of specificity in the details which might help (I am too busy doing other things and when firefox becomes too much of a pain, I generally close it and switch to another browser). I am providing my general observations. On my updated windows 10 64 bit system, firefox v148 seems to have made the browser unusable for me. Other browsers do not suffer similarly (Chrome, Edge, Opera, duckduckgo). I have had these types of issues with Firefox in the past, but they resolved with prior updates. I am at the point of switching to another browser - I hate the thought of it, but Chrome seems to be the most stable and functional. Symptoms:

• Firefox browser and the computer gradually become slower as firefox starts hogging cpu and memory and starts using a lot of power
• extensions stop working - eg, Keeper extension stops filling fields or fills incorrectly, Malwarebytes extension seems less responsive, running background sounds makes things even worse (https://www.mynoise.net/) and web pages with continuous updates (eg, map.purpleair.com) stop working altogether
• other pages stop loading, load with errors ('bad connection') or load very slowly, especially, but not always, those with more security, eg, my bank or retirement funds sites.
• after i close Firefox and start fresh, symptoms resolve, then rinse and repeat.

The previous version worked great and seemed to solve similar issues I have had with earlier releases. I assume the last stable release for me was one of the 147 versions. but when things are going well (which is most of the time), I'm not watching closely, or at all.

Greetings. Am running Firefox 147.0.4 (aarch64) on a MacBookPro running Mac OS Tahoe 26.3. When I first launch Firefox, it sits and does nothing for 30 to 45 seconds, I have it set to open a National Weather Service forecast page at startup, but even if I try to type in a different URL, Firefox won't allow me to do anything --or even quit the application -- until that first web page finally loads. Have tried clearing all history, including cookies and site data, but that does not help. The hangup was even longer until I worked with Apple tech support to turn off some universal add-ins like Content Barrier (Intego) or anything that acted like a VPN. Apple told me the hang is apparently caused by a Firefox add-in or extension. But I can't figure out how to find any or how to turn it off.

If I try to open Firefox, it goes to a page saying my fingerprint will be required, but nothing asks for my finerprint. And the red close button on upper left doesn't appear. I can only reduce the picture, but can't close it to start over.

Initually I was having issues where I couldn't get the print menu to load up (forever stuck trying to load the preview), however since then it has progressed to downloads refusing to download and the hamburger menu in the menu bar doesn't react when left clicked at all.

When I open the app the search is extremely slow and the page takes up to 10 30 seconds to change from a blank to a normal page. I tried changing from Google to bing and to remove the extensions but no improvement

YouTube playback freezes for a second or two every few minutes.

I have a recording with the Profiler that includes the stutter. It shows a memory drop and some "jank - event processing delay" just before the stutter happens 1m52s in: https://share.firefox.dev/4rzMNyD

I have recently begun to have hard 'hangs' while attempting to view a video on a site I'm already connected to. I've tried to overcome these hangs, but they continue to happen even after firefox has been in use for a short time. I have to restart my computer, since the hang is locking up all control input.

I recently got a new laptop with Windows 11 Pro. I installed Firefox from the Mozilla site. When I click to open Firefox, it takes a long time - 41 seconds to be exact. I uninstalled, reinstalled and restarted my computer. I cleared the cache. I tried to run as administrator. Not sure what else to try. As I wait for it to open, it reads "not responding" in the search bar area. Any ideas?

When I log into Google, my browser freezes. I can't close the browser, can't even restart the computer — and this happens every single time I try to sign into my account, making the browser essentially unusable.

I am not sure if you have herd this or not since the newest Firefox update everything is very slow. takes forever to get anything on Firefox especially with extensions enabled. Especially Facebook . Now i am not sure if this is Facebook's fault or if it is Firefox Iam using this version149.0 64 bit. if it is not Firefox have you hear d or seen yourselves about Facebook not loading correctly . Please if anyone knows of either problem feel free to contact me

So, i am having two issues. when i click on notification icon fiverr.com the tab freezes. Also i am not finding the refresh firefox option in troubleshooting. i am using ryzen 9 8945hx with 5070.

I've just upgraded to V149 and, when using NordVPN, Firefox is now taking at least 30secs to startup. If NordVPN is off startup is instant. Prior to V149, Firefox startup was instant, both with and without NordVPN.
