Every time you update there are compatibility issues. Especially with Anti-virus programs. WHY? When publishing updates it seems that it would behoove you to contact ALL Virus programs.

Every time I have FF updates there are major compatibility issues with anti virus, Adobe Flash, Java, & HP printer. This happens whenever Firefox has updates unless I wait 3-4 weeks to update. Impossible to live with these issues constantly.

Well since there doesn't seem to be any customer support help and no answers as to why this is done so haphazardly, (very much like Facebook) the old We don't care attitude. So BYE BYE Firefox after 10 years of use!

Wow, you waited a whole 3 minutes before deciding that there isn't any support help here. All AV vendors are aware of the Firefox update schedule, some are better than others at providing timely updates for Firefox compatibility.

See https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/880546. Among all browsers, only Mozilla Firefox forces all vendors to update their add-ons every 8 weeks, some just can't keep up.

It's 6 weeks between Firefox version updates, not 8 weeks.

Firefox doesn't force developers to create add-ons for Firefox, it is their choice. If they aren't up to the challenge of the fast release schedule, maybe they need to rethink their commitment to add-ons for Firefox and quit the game if they can't keep up with it.
