As per my title, it is more and more ofen on many occasion that I need to switch to Chrome. It is not only annying but even embarising in my studies because I argue that I can't see something while it turns out it is visible when people use Chrome. In particular it applies to pop up boxes, despite removing pop up block my Firefox doe not display this library pop up gate so I can't proceed.

It also doesn't display many Recaptcha panels, for example here: https://ahrefs.com/youtube-keyword-tool It shouts Cannot contact reCaptcha. CHeck your connection and try again. But it is all fine on Chrome.

I can give more examples every day. Please help

Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
