is it just me or #Firefox sometimes randomly decides to stop responding to any left mouse clicks on existing tabs? like trying to close, go back or unmute – with no reaction
right click and picking an option from the menu works
it started with the last release ig (i’m on 138.0.1, Arch on Wayland)
I have that as well, guess it is a general problem. Never bothered to mention it to someone.
My whole browser seems to not respond to anything. Switching to another app and switching back usually fixes it.
I guess it’s a Wayland thing.
Not just you, their tabs are shit and they refuse to fix it
@rail_@bark.lgbt i’ve seen that happen occasionally on sway and i3, and sometimes it was more general (i.e. the entire desktop was no longer responding to clicks but all shortcuts still worked). i don’t think I’ve had it happen to Firefox specifically?
Never had that but middle click stops working to open new tabs quite often. Might be my mouse though
@rail_@bark.lgbt I saw that recently on Nightly. That makes me think maybe it was package updates.
Is it still happening? Can you make it happen consistently?
@yoasif@mastodon.social it’s happening on a stable release and pretty much every time I use Firefox (but not all the time)
@rail_@bark.lgbt See if you can figure out mozregression: https://mozilla.github.io/mozregression/
I generally use the CLI version.
@rail_@bark.lgbt I think this is it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1955112
can’t help but notice that this bug would not exist if firefox didn’t add such unnecessary bloat as moveable tabs
Hmm, maybe some other interaction / conflict? Never experienced this on both my desktop (Arch, Wayland, Gnome) or my work PC (Fedora Silverblue, so Wayland and Gnome but slightly behind).
not just you, it happened to mee too, recently.
Never any problems. Do you still have that problem when addons are disabled?
