Tell me about it, it took me a long time to get out of google’s ecosystem. As cliche as it sounds, you have to do it one step at a time

I’m happy that syncing works for you but privacy is very important to me so I don’t want to upload my data to someone else’s server(s).

I’m going to experiment with uninstalling flatpak firefox completely and reinstalling it to see if it’ll fix the issue.

If that doesn’t work, I’ll try using firefox downloaded & installed with apt.

That’s the problem, when I go to about:profiles, Firefox says that the root directories for the two profiles are:

• profile1 = /home/mario/.mozilla/firefox/ctd2ygzm.profile1
• profile 2 = /home/haque1/.mozilla/firefox/fk2o00h5.profile2

But I can’t find the directories for either of these profiles in /home/mario/.mozilla/firefox/

I have enabled the “Show hidden files” option in Thunar and I have even launched it as root from the terminal (sudo thunar) and I still can’t find these profile directories.

Thanks

For me sites like YouTube, Rumble, Odysee, and Bitchute work but unfortunately this version of flatpak Firefox is giving me problems.

It uses Google’s Chromium engine, that’s the problem.

I appreciate your recommendation but I’m boycotting Google and as much of its tech as possible—that’s why I was using Firefox.

I get that but up until this week, this wasn’t a problem—posts used to show up at the top of the page within 3-5 minutes. Today it took two hours.

The posts eventually did show up at the top after two hours and receiving 8 or 9 upvotes.

This delay wasn’t always there. Just last week, the posts would show up at the top after 3-5 minutes.
