I woke up one day and Fennec wouldn’t browse any web page. Like, if I do a search, which goes to DuckDuckGo, I get a loading bar that never goes anywhere. (See screenshot).
If I disable all of my extensions, it’ll work again. Then, if I enable them one by one to try to find the culprit that was making Fennec not work, it doesn’t break! Until it does, randomly. I basically can’t easily reproduce it working or not working.
I switched to IronFox, and installed all the same extensions, and have had no problems for two days.
Extensions:
- JShelter
- UBlock Origin
- Decentraleyes
- Cookie AutoDelete
- Absolute Enable Right Click & Copy
As @tal@lemmy.today reports, it’s a known bug. If you disable UBlock and possibly Decentraleyes, then navigate to a page, then re-enable them, navigation should then work normally, at least for a while.
