Since updating Firefox every time I try to read the comment section of what others have written I am not losing the written part to blank spots AND lines that do stay are all broken up so nothing is readable any more. Truth is folks, this browser is not getting better to use, it is getting worse and it is getting to the point that I want to change to a different one. What used to work seems to no longer be the goal. Making a mess of what used to work seems to be the goal today.
