Default Firefox - anyone else having issues with it?

Sometimes/ Frequently - when I try to post a reply, a screen comes up - I think if is from the QB - asking if I want to stay on the page or leave the page - I check stay on the page - and whatever I was attempting to post - gets vanished.

Is that Firefox or QB's error? QB has a lot of glitches.

Firefox has seemed quite glitchy to me lately. Not just here but other places as well. Although I'm not normally a fan of doing so, have you updated to a recent version lately? I inadvertently did that on the desktop computer a couple of months ago and it's been problematic. If so, also don't forget to update your ad blocker.

My motto - if it ain't broke - don't fix it! I did here also that Firefox had a MAJOR crash a few months ago. That also might be part of the problem.

I think it is Firefox. I am ready to switch to Chrome. Just waiting for my techie to get some time off work.

I use Chrome I had fire fox but to many issues. Crome so far for a couple years now has been great!
I will occasionally still get the message Do you want to stay on this page but not as often as before.

Too much tracking on Chrome for my tastes. I'll stick with Firefox - glitches and all. Granted, there is tracking there as well, but not nearly as bad as Chrome from what I can tell.

I agree NJ. I stay away from Google because of that.

The message "Stay on Page" or Leave Page" comes up when I have typed a message and have not sent it or saved it. Then I say stay on page, my original page comes up, and I can either send it or delete it.

I was having serious troubles a month or so ago. I finally called Frontier. They said I live in a high use area. I was told to upgrade at $10 more per month. What a difference. I think that is a lot to pay for something others get for nothing, but it sure was worth it to relieve my frustration over what had been happening on my computer.

Firefox is crashing a lot lately. Comcast is my internet provider. Aggravating.
