Please tell me is it just me or not. I am coming from Brave and everything works great there but I always respected firefox and wanted to work in it. This is the third time I tried to switch. First time I had a problem on my android phone - tabs were reloading the moment I leave them. Second time I noticed some minor bugs on desktop. Now I have troubles on both of my PCs (OS - linux mint):

1. When I type search prompt in the address bar (with google as a search engine) sometimes I need to press enter several times for browser to start loading the page.
2. Gemini website loses connection when it's idle for several minutes and I need to reload it.
3. Some websites don't load from the first time. Also need to reload several times.
4. Found a bug that I can't use 360 view on google maps (I see only black screen).

And some bugs were with turned off extensions and mozilla tracker. If it's just me then I guess it's my destiny to not use firefox :(

installed dark reader on 152.0.4 and noticed that it is very slow in loading.. there's even a message that flashed quickly on top that says similar..

as i have also installed ublock, is it somehow affecting the loading / activating of dark reader?

Hi, I’m switching from Brave to Firefox, and I’m really enjoying but there is one thing that annoys me: the cookie consent pop-up on almost every website asking me to accept cookies and data collection.

Is there a reliable way to automatically reject them (or hide them entirely) so I don’t have to deal with the pop-up on every site?

I'm on Windows 11.

Okay so basically, I was just listening to some music on youtube and stuff like that, suddenly my apps froze and my laptop told me that we've run into an issue and need to restart.

It did that then it boots up again, I go on to open Firefox and it opens the start page, everything is blank, it also updated (since I didn't have the newest update on it). None of my bookmarks are there, my profile doesn't show up, it doesn't remember ANYTHING.

Is there anything I can do and has anyone else had this issue? If nothing can be done I will just manually make it like it was before though that'll be a pain in the ass especially since I had like 50 bookmarks most of which O don't remember.

I have cleared the cache, disabled uBlock, used a private window and using old.reddit. What next?

Hi

I was organising my tabs and dragged some to make a second browser and accidentally closed it. Is there a way of recovering them?

Thanks

Is it possible to set Firefox to security updates only?

Showcasing the new animated wallpaper support in FlexFox v6.5, a highly customizable Firefox theme focused on maximizing screen space and improving everyday browsing workflows.

As of recently Firefox replaces the custom DoH settings with Cloudflare after toggling between Custom and Default.

A custom DoH configuration prevents captive portal login pages from opening (a common need when traveling). So it's necessary to temporarily switch to the default resolver. However, after switching back to your custom provider, Firefox replaces it with Cloudflare.

This is my DoH configuration before and after ticking the Default button to allow the portal page to load.

I tried every setting in about:config I could think of, including removing the default DoH server altogether, but Cloudflare still pops up every time.

Is there a way to override this behavior?
