Flickering/Highlighting with Cursor Movements on Webpages

I am experiencing a flickering/highlighting effect on various webpages when using Firefox on some of my computers (a Microsoft Surface and Asus Laptop, but not my work desktop). Attached photos show an example from Gmail, where the one photo shows it open in Microsoft Edge (no flicker/highlighting effect) and the other photo shows it in Firefox.

When my cursor moves it causes the greyed out portions to jump to other areas. I also see this in places like the toolbar, where the rounded edges of bookmarks are now sometimes a grey square, similar to the greyed out emails in the photo.

I have restarted and reinstalled Firefox with no changes. Any idea what is causing this?

On Galaxy 23 Ultra using Android 14 & Ui 6.1 w/ Firefox, my Bookmarks disappeared. How do I get them back? Tried about:profiles, but nothing comes up. Recently due screen going haywire, phone was reset & the shop left me with Google, which I hate. Have been things getting back to Firefox I've used for years. Not sure if lost then. Bookmarks screen/setup I get, must be Google's, because it's not like FF's. I have Samsung & Google backups, but didn't realize Bookmarks were not put in them. Phone & apps are kept updated. FYI if it matters: Due to storm damage, I'm without a computer that might help. Help, pls. I'd be very appreciative.

dunno if this is the right board, but here goes...

I discovered a bug with Firefox and the pen/touchscreen on my lenovo X1 tablet.

Using the touchscreen, move the map, map works as it should. Can pinch to zoom, ect.

Switch to the pen, map works with pen.

Touch the screen again and Google maps doesn't respond to touchscreen anymore, only the pen, and refresh does not fix it. I have to close and re-open maps in a new tab.

In chrome, this does not happen. Only in Firefox.

I recently downloaded Firefox on my Mac and am having an issue with a "Log in" button not being functional on a website (www.pressdemocrat.com).

A few details: I use uBlock Origin. I added a Firefox exception to allow pop-ups on the website. I cleared cookies and site data I disabled extensions and still had the problem I created a new test profile with no extensions and still had the problem It works on other browsers

The Subscribe and eEdition buttons work on the same website, which is extra-annoying.

Last update Version: 135.0.1 (64 bit) Since I upgraded, all cloudflare robot verifications are not passing. It constantly redirects to the verification page. For this reason, I started using a different browser. I go in and test it from time to time, it is still the same. Update. Fix it.

Note: I reset the browser. I removed the add-ons. I reset the proxy. Cache was cleared.

Result: It still does not pass cloudflare verifications.

Firefox crashes randomly during video playback. I've submitted over 10 crash reports. Here's the two latest crash report (which includes my device's hardware information): https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/81eb1750-1dd0-490d-9eb1-d3c2c0250224 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/6682a7f2-836a-4365-938e-c9ab20250224

I'm on Fedora 41 + gnome, but this issue persisted even in Windows 11, which caused BSOD therefore I made the switch to linux (At least in linux it doesn't crash the whole system, only firefox). If you need any additional information let me know. I can run journalctl/dmesg if required.

I've already tried things like restarting in safe mode (troubleshoot mode), refreshing firefox etc. Didn't work.

Thanks in advance!

I have a Mozilla recovery key but cannot find in all your articles, where to enter it. Please explain to me where to enter the key and why after all these years everything I have accumulated is gone.

Menu bar on MacOS obscured by FF 135.0.1

Hello, ever since I upgraded MacOS to 15.3.1 and Firefox to 135.0.1 the top menu bar seems to disappear. I do not know which is the culprit, but on MacRumors (https://www.macrumors.com/) you'll find several others with the same experience.

My personal observation is that it seems to happen on various Silicon hardware (tried 3) and when multiple tabs are active.

The bug is no showstopper, but to proceed you got to click on the (invisible) menu bar in the upper left. Thanks for reading.

I was trying to fix a problem with eBay where I was unable to send a message to a seller. (A problem I have since discovered had nothing to do with Firefox it has to do with eBay). I had asked GPTchat for suggestions and it had me open a terminal and run some commands (don't remember what it was). while running this command we lost power and since then I cannot resize a Firefox window. However other windows like Dolphin or LibreOffice are unaffected. All else appears to run fine

I opened closed it, rebooted, different urls. Firefox doesnt work at all. I had to use Chrome to ask this question.

An error msg that starts with (GAH)!! is this for real?

No idea if this is the right topic or not but I've been dealing with this frustrating issue where with some websites it just loads a blank white screen. I've tried every fix I could that I've seen on forums like this as well as on Reddit and nothing I've tried has fixed it. From launching in Safe Mode or changing things in about:config. Before finishing this post I tried launching in safe mode, so my add-ons and plugins are disabled and it still persists with websites loading in these blank white screens. I never had this issue at first and I'm sure it started to happen after an automatic update a while back.

I need this issue sorted out so I can look and compare items from shops but most of the time a website that works and I look at it elsewhere I'm dealing with this issue. No issue looking at stuff on the internet on my phone, though I do use safari instead on my phone.
