I have a blog over at venera.social, and when I view my timeline on my Fold4 using Dex, the page doesn't fully load, cutting off about two-thirds of the way down, which is rather a problem as the navigation buttons are at the bottom of the page. The problem is only when using DeX with an external trackball connected, when using the phone screen as a touch pad or just using Firefox on the phone, the page loads completely.

I noticed that on a regular basis, Firefox Android slows down dramatically after 1 or 2 hours of browsing. The only fix of the problem is to force stop the browser and launch it again. This happens consistently as well after disabling extentions. Firefox is updated to the latest version, 110.

For some reason, when I open a link on another app, the browser just stays on a blank screen. The loading bar doesn't even appear. I tried to do Open in Firefox, but it does the same thing, and it even makes it so any time I try to go to another tab or try to go to a different website immediately after, it gets stuck on the blank screen as well. I had to force close the app and reopen it to fix it. I don't know if it's a firewall issue or incompatibility.

Hi Firefox Support, I'm using Firefox Android on a Google Pixel 3xl. Clicking on hyperlink on website and choose from pop-up menu Open in New Tab. Switch to new tab and blank page sits there with only the URL in the address bar. Page doesn't load. If you switch to another open tab then switch back to new tab after a minute or so the page will load. Very frustrating. Using a Google Pixel 3xl

Firefox build info: 110.1.0 (Build #2015936099), d39fc7498c+ GV: 110.0.1-20230227191043 AS: 96.2.1 2023-02-28T12:26:13.679557

I just want to report my experience using your mobile browser. navigating through your browser is very slow. I thought it was just the website I was navigating through but then I started navigating the same website through another browser and had no problems. Then I noticed navigating through other websites with other browsers was easier too. If there is a method to make navigating through your browser faster then let me know. And I'm frustrated that there is no direct contact to support. I am communicating this report through this media because there was no direct way to make this report to support. That is very frustrating to me. Why isn't there a direct line to contact support. Why is contacting Mozilla volunteers the only option for those looking to report issues or looking for real technical support?

Why does Firefox insist that I use the mobile YouTube?

This problem has kept annoying me for months now: When I load my youtube subscriptions page on my tablet, Firefox keeps kicking me over to the mobile site (m.youtube.com instead of www.youtube.com) which is bloody annoying. Changing the m to www manually will do me no good, it gets changed back to m as soon as i hit enter. Turning on the desktop site switch in the menu will only work temporarily, it's only a matter of time before I get kicked back to the mobile site. It's not a question of IF it happens, it's a question of WHEN it happens.

The thing is that this ONLY happens with youtube in Firefox on my tablet, but not in Firefox on my phone, my computer or other websites, and it does not happen in opera on the tablet either. That tells me that it is a Firefox problem (maybe some setting?), not a YouTube problem.

So why does Firefox do this, and how can I stop it?

PS. It's the latest version of Firefox on a galaxy tab s2 running Android 7. No, updating to a newer version of Android is not an option :-( Thanks, Samsung!

Exorbitantly Protracted Load Times

My Specs: Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Model# SM-N96OU1 Android Version 10 Firefox: 107.2.0 (Build #2015918523), 1490acda7+ This past year, whenever the Firefox Android app is … (read more)

My Specs: Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Model# SM-N96OU1 Android Version 10 Firefox: 107.2.0 (Build #2015918523), 1490acda7+

This past year, whenever the Firefox Android app is initialized (from a wholly dormant state, as opposed to starting from a "running in the background" state) it can take upwards of five minutes until I'm actually able to utilize it. During the interim, the page itself is grayed-out and clicking on any other tabs, bookmarks or urls results in a delayed reaction which happens all at once, five minutes later. I've attempted all manner of updating uninstalling, reinstalling, cache-clearing, and what have you, all of which have had no discernable effect on the aforementioned load time. I even considered the possibility that my swollen downloads folder might be the cause, so I migrated the contents elsewhere, cleared the temp data, etc. and rebooted the device. To no avail, sadly. Is this normal behavior? (the software I mean). I would've posted this question months ago, but a complaint about being forced to wait a few extra moments each day feels a little like WPP.
