🟥 https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/wiki/5.2-Troubleshooting

[x] I have read the troubleshooting guide, done the checks and confirmed this is caused by arkenfox

🟪 REQUIRED INFO

Browser version & OS: firefox RPM 118.0.1 Fedora
Steps to Reproduce (STR):

Load this website on Wikimedia searching for "tux" images

Scroll down a bit and scroll up again, or just do nothing and wait.

Expected result: images load after another and stay there
Actual result: images load and then disappear again quickly?
Console errors and warnings: dont know
Anything else you deem worth mentioning: tested this on default firefox

FWIW - can't replicate on windows

my everyday FF with AF
TB13 (worth checking)

@firefoxlover

step 1: does this happen on Firefox without arkenfox?

step 2: does this happen once you update to FF120?

Assuming 1 is a no, and 2 is a yes - do you happen to know (i.e you have been using arkenfox for a while) if this only recently started happening, or is it something you only just noticed

firefoxlover commented 7 months ago

uhm I use Fedora Firefox so I cant just update.

I tested this on a vanilla profile and it didnt happen there. Started a few weeks ago, maybe a month

I am on Firefox 120 now and will test.

Yes it is still happening.

Thorin-Oakenpants commented 7 months ago

thanks - I will see what I can test from my end (not linux savy, but I can set up some VMs - atm I only have debian)

my first thought was this might be something to do with wayland changes, so "good" to know it's something in AF and something still happening. I'll have to try and replicate and then bisect the prefs - that is new profile, add half the user.js ... repeat & rinse

Some interesting addition: when using Javascript to load all the images, this does not happen. Only on Pages like Duckduckgo when I think the images are loaded through HTML

Thorin-Oakenpants commented 6 months ago

Update: couldn't replicate the issue in debian 12 (gnome) using FF121

what I did - https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/121.0/linux-x86_64/en-US/ - I unpacked the bz2 to a folder called FF121 in my downloads, opened it (i.e Home/Downloads/FF121/firefox), went to about:support for my profile (which was anew one which doesn't interfere with the debian provided ESR), and copied the AF user.js in. Closed it. Opened it. Check about:config - parrot and all.

Are you employing uBlock Origin with Hard or Medium Blocking Mode? If so, ensure that you permit connections necessary for streaming the video or displaying the image.

atomGit commented 6 months ago

i'm loading the site with uBO strict, with/without JS, ff v121, and cannot reproduce

i'm not running vanilla arkenfox however - might be useful if OP posted their overrides

bkmo commented 5 months ago

Cannot reproduce on Arch Linux. Firefox 121, Ubo basically medium mode, arkenfox with some overrides. Basically RFP disabled. Webgl enabled.

wrathgewp commented 5 months ago

I cannot reproduce it on Fedora 39. I'm using Firefox RPM 121.0.1 with uBlock Origin ( with every 3rd-party filters enabled, as well as ublock's one ), Dark Reader and Bitwarden extensions. The images never disappear

Thorin-Oakenpants commented 5 months ago

closing since no-one else has managed to replicate and op seems to have disappeared for now
