Pages jump back to the top if I start reading before they finish loading.
I found that someone had a similar bug about 8 years ago (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=292286) but obviously, firefox has since been updated considerably, so the fix (download Mozilla 5.0) isn't appropriate anymore. It only happens on slow loading pages, and only intermittently.

It is possible that some JavaScript runs on a specific page that modifies the content or sets focus to an element on the page and in such a case there is probably nothing to do about this.
Does this happens on long pages?
Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page that doesn't require authentication (log in) to access it?

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

=s I actually can't replicate the problem anymore, even outside of safe mode. I don't know what sort of phantom glitch it was... I'll mark it as solved for now and come back if it breaks again.
