Site is https://www.ziggogo.tv/nl/home which is a Cable Television provider's site.

Is days of Yore, we users were asked to tell if a site did not work with Firefox. Now I had to find this forum :-(

I'd like to understand what makes Firefox incapable of playing the film featuring my father from the sixties, two 2 years before he died. For me it is not a real problem, because Chrome waits always in the background to take over. I'd just prefer to let it wait for eternity.

I'm on Windows 11.

Regression: Folder drag-and-drop broken in Synology File Station (DSM 7.2.1)

Description: For the past few versions, Firefox has lost the ability to upload folders via drag-and-drop into Synology File Station.

The Issue: Dragging a folder into the File Station interface used to work, but now it is no longer recognized or fails to parse the directory structure.

Comparison: This feature continues to work perfectly in Chrome, suggesting a recent regression in Firefox's handling of webkitGetAsEntry or related directory APIs.

Note: This is specifically about the drag-and-drop action, as the native "Upload" button has never supported directory selection. Environment:

Browser: Firefox 150.0.3 (and several recent prior versions) Server: Synology DSM 7.2.1 OS:Windows 11

Hello,

I am reporting a performance issue specifically related to Google Search's AI features (AI Overviews) in Firefox 149.0.2 on macOS.

The Issue: When an AI-generated summary appears in Google Search results, GPU usage spikes significantly, reaching up to 212%. This causes the laptop to overheat and triggers high fan speeds.

Critical Comparison:

Firefox 149.0.2: Extreme GPU load and performance degradation when rendering Google AI elements.

Google Chrome 147.0.7727.56: Works perfectly with normal GPU usage under the same conditions.

Tested on two different MacBooks: MacBook Pro (A1502), 16GB RAM, i7 (2015) — OS: macOS Monterey. MacBook Pro (MMQX3), 64GB RAM, M1 Max (2021) — OS: macOS Sequoia (15.x/Tahoe).

It was nice when FF was simple to use....unimcumbered with all the options...like the latest...profiles.

Why? It's getting to be as complicated as E and C..you don't need all those options - that's why I use FF.

Get rid, or allow the user, to pick and choose, and dump the unwanted stuff from cluttering the tool bar and other options. Just a suggestion that can be made to FF any longer. Use to be they'd welcome feedback.
