It did, but it made using YouTube and embeddeded Twitter videos a mess. I had to click three times everytime I wanted to start a video of them and that was a bit much for just getting rid of annoying Autoplayvideos at Wikia.com

Not sure. I'll have to check. I think cookies are still on though :(
Having some funky issues with FF
- twitter media does not play on era, I have to click it to go to twitter and then watch vid
- reset my macbook after upgrading, and my synced FF is not bringing all the shit I have on my iMac FF. It is synced and it still doesn't work, it's driving me fucking nuts.
- "The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed. The certificate is not valid for the name ticket.w3k.wfsltd.com. Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER" Keep getting that issue on a few select issues for work, while the website works for Chrome once I accept the exceptions (don't get the option on FF)

Pleasure :).
I can't answer for GAMEPROFF but I prefer the extension as it allows me to enable/disable videos per tab/site without going into about:config each time.
This is probably not a solution you really want, but my best advice is to ditch Lastpass in favor of something else. The FF add-on has been garbage for a while now and moving to web-ext didn't really help at all.
Also as an aside, they still don't have autofill for Android O working unless you are using their beta client, which is just another reason to move on.
Only downside to migrating to something else is that it also happens that lastpass' database export is often bugged and can't handle some special characters right. I managed to work around the bug, left my lifetime sub behind and moved to bitwarden.
alright I can replicate random 30FPS drops on VSyncTester, as well as on Firefox 56. Can anyone else try VsyncTester?
It's possible I screwed something up on my end, but I don't have another PC to test at the moment.

So I changed the stock messenger on android, and now the menu button to send is set to the old program. How can I fix this?
When you trust a site, make sure the little clock thing in the same box as TRUSTED is faded rather than opaque. The clock is how you allow temporary permissions now.
If that's not the problem, then I think it'd be a bug.
FF57 is driving me nuts!! It randomly wont load pages. It will just keep showing the loading animation, until like 2 minutes later everything finally starts working again. It's also slower then ever. It keeps getting worse by the day. Never had these issues until the update. Someone please help before I leave FF for good. Any suggestions?
Most likely some tab you have open is slowing things down (probably due to ads or some such nonsense). If you go to the about:performance page, it should be pretty obvious which one is the culprit.
For some reason my pages are dimmed but lighten when I switch between tabs or other browsers. It only began to start, any reason for that going on or to fix it?
You're right. I was definitely having some problems before though.
Exact same issue for me, on Windows 10. Happens on Tweetdeck too.
This has happened to me after Firefox has given me a warning that a script on some tab is fucking up. The problem is solved by restarting FF.
Like I said above, typically the "about: performance" page can identify which tab is the problem one.
Just found how to fix it on Google :
Type about:config in your adress bar, type csp in the bar and find security.csp.enable, then double click on it to set it on "False"

Have they fixed the crazy acceleration of scrolling? That's the one reason I switched back to Chrome after trying it. I just can't browse the web at my own pace; four of five finger swipes down and FF jumps to the bottom of the page. It's insane.

They are changing the scrolling engine as part of the Quantum upgrade. It's not in the current stable yet though.
Oh so FF57 and Quantum are two different things? So when I tried FF57 back in november, it did not have the Quantum upgrade?
loved it until it crashed and Onetab lost 100+ tabs.
When Chrome crashes, Onetab never resets.

It's multiple parts that all interconnect. You got some of the parts in FF57.
Cool. Good to know. I'll keep an eye on FF's development then. I'd love to switch back to it.

I've asked before, but I'll try again... anyone have a good bookmark synchronising extension to replace xmarks?
Fucking firefox built in sync keeps putting back bookmarks that I've deleted and it's REALLY pissing me off.

Super. It's never worked for me (I wonder if it's because of how rarely I use the laptop it syncs to).
Firefox started opening everything up in tabs whether I wanted it to or not. I couldn't work out why it was doing this. Then I realised that a big, fat ginger cat was partially lying on the keyboard :/. Keyboard removed, pussycat is more comfortable [because that's what's important, right?] and I get to type at an awkward angle \o/.
Are there any Firefox Quantum extensions that mimic Tab Mix Plus? (especially modifying which tab get focused after closing a tab). I'm suffering without this mod.
Maybe someone can help me find a substitute for Remove It Permanently. I used to make heavy use of this extension and it drives me bonkers not having it.
And also make custom scripts work in Tampermonkey. It works when I download a script from userscripts.org, but none of the scripts I wrote myself do anything. The Tampermonkey menu does say that it's on and that a script is active for a website, but nothing happens. Not even a script only containing a simple alert("script running"); does anything.
Maybe you can deal with it, but I found this extension unusable and went back to Firefox's default broken behavior, even though it's complete garbage.

Sadly, this thing is super annoying to use. Firefox will always switch to the tab to the right of the tab you closed, or the last tab if there is no tab to the right. At least that's how I think it works. This behavior cannot be overridden, and so what this extension does is switch tabs again after Firfox has made the first switch, making the wrong tab briefly appear on the screen.

Read that in the review comments section and I initially did notice tab behavior, but I think my brain was subsequently able to ignore the quick flash of the incorrect page. It's less irritating now. Having the ability to re-focus of sibling tabs was too good to pass up.
