I use Firefox 128.3.1esr in my Debian 12.7 Is there anyway to close last tab without exiting the browser? I mean after closing all tabs, I want Firefox jumps to homepage. Thanks for your help.

With Yahoo (and other sites) suddenly every single time I am required to use the "authenticator app" routine. I've gone for months or even years with persistent sign-ins before. What happened? How do I get back?
It's like I'm in private mode - but I'm not in private mode.

Latest update, 4. oct. Using Firefox Developer Edition. Closed the browser window for the day, and then on opening again it had updated, my entire toolbar, and also icons where the tabs are, are just gone - including the "+" icon for creating a new tab, along with the bookmarks bar having vanished. Picture added below.
It seems like the bookmarks bar is still there, you just can visibly see any bookmarks. Tried adding a new bookmark, but nothing appeared.
How can I fix this?
There used to be a little plus sign so I can open new tabs but it is gone now. How do I get it back?

Hi, Not sure if this is the right place but here goes:
Firefox keeps increasing it's tab RAM usage when I change the "src" property of an image programmatically for extended periods of time (1 hour or so).
I created a dummy project here: https://github.com/mvandermade/example-base64-image-memory-high-native
The code above swaps out the image "src" 20 times a second. However I seen buildups with lower frequencies but bigger images too...
Here some measurement of tab RAM usage:
Measurements Windows 10: Firefox 131 00.00h 37MB 01.15h 127MB 03.00h 228MB
Edge (latest) 00.00h 28MB 01.15h 30MB 03.00h 33MB
(Edge seems to have no memory buildup as much)
Here is a copy of the code if the repo ever goes down:
<html>
<head>
<script>
function generateRandomBase64Image() {
// Create a canvas element
const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
// Set canvas dimensions
canvas.width = 200;
canvas.height = 200;
if(ctx == null) return ""
// Fill the canvas with a random color
ctx.fillStyle = `#${Math.floor(Math.random() * 16777215).toString(16)}`;
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
// Draw some random shapes
for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
ctx.fillStyle = `#${Math.floor(Math.random() * 16777215).toString(16)}`;
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(
Math.random() * canvas.width,
Math.random() * canvas.height,
Math.random() * 50,
0,
Math.PI * 2
);
ctx.fill();
}
// Convert the canvas to a Base64 string
return canvas.toDataURL('image/png');
}
setInterval(() => {
document.getElementById("swapper").src=generateRandomBase64Image()
}, 50)
</script>
</head>
<body>
<img src="" id="swapper"/>
</body>
</html>
Just a observation from my side, if I can help improve things please let me know!
Greetings,
Martijn
p.s. I also created a project in React which gives similar results: https://github.com/mvandermade/example-base64-image-memory-high

I'm trying to add the zscaler certificate (my company uses it) to firefox using the certificate manager. When i select the certificate and click import, nothing happens. The certificate doesn't show up on the list of authorities and there are no error messages.
I'm using firefox in a VM running Ubuntu btw and the certificate I exported from the host machine running Windows.

The security sequence for log-in is supply of user-id and then password; that works fine; then a send unique code dialogue pops up and it leads to an error screen which I am attaching. I have rung the number provided and they say they don't support Firefox; so that looks like end of Firefox use to me and goodbye (can't find a tearful emoji to insert).
Gotta say this kind of thing is happening quite frequently for me; mostly without a nice error screen like this one; last one I recall was hunting for car insurance; on the screen where it listed the billions of quotes to eager providers none of the links to click through for the quotes worked... and with this happeneing more frequently now you go... ohh it's firefox again isn't it... so you reluctantly fire up Google Chrome and of course it works OK.
So I'm kinda here with a broader outlook than just this specific problem; I really am on the verge of giving up with Firefox; it should just work shouldn't it; and it increasingly doesn't anymore; I don't want to get into an extended and convoluted dialogue to help you cure this issue; I'm simply perplexed that some really basic stuff doesn't work anymore; however; I've used Firefox for centuries so thought I should give you at least a chance so I could declare how I feel etc.
I am up for a dialogue over this and hoping this is an easy fix; but; as I say; I'm confused as to why, for me, Firefox just simply doesn't work well anymore; it just should and I shouldn't be here.

I use Mozilla Firefox for work. Part of my work requires I use the GlobalProtect VPN client. When I log on to the VPN, everything appears to be fine. The problem arises when I log out of the VPN client, such as needing to switch to a different VPN.
When I log out of the VPN client, Mozilla slows down massively. I get the following errors when trying to access websites.
PR_END_OF_FILE Timeout
I thought it was a DNS issue, but the change I made previously did not prove to be a reliable fix, and I do not actually know the root cause of what is happening. Firefox returns to normal ONLY after a full computer restart. At this point I am considering switching browsers as, despite Firefox's functionality, it is starting to interfere with my work.
I have used other VPNs, such as Fortigate VPN, and not encountered anything like this.
Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.

I'm talking about how when you go to fill out a text input, it'll suggest that input next time you go to a similar field. Well, that system just saved my social security number as an input after I filled out a government form. I would like to turn this feature off now, and delete the history of it if I can. Is there a way I can do that?
I'd attach an example image of a different website, but the box goes away when trying to take a screenshot.
