New posts aren't showing up at the top of my community's page—they stay stuck below posts that are 5-6 days old. I have been experiencing this issue since Thursday or Friday of last week

Last but not least, since the screenshot shows the subreddit I moderate, c/kickasswomen, and I don’t want anyone to get the wrong idea: everyone whose content is posted on KickassWomen has given me their permission—I don’t steal anyone’s content nor do I post anything without their consent.

Lemmy.world is automatically logging me out after I login and press the refresh button. I have attached a video of this glitch to this post

To add some more info, I'm using Debian 12 and Firefox 132.0 (Flatpak version). I used Gnome's Screencast to record the clip but for some reason, I couldn't get the mouse/pointer to show up in the video even though I had "Show Pointer" enabled.

Last but not least, since my username appears on the video and I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea: I moderate a community called c/kickasswomen and everyone whose content is posted on that community has given me their permission—I don't steal anyone's content nor do I post anything without their consent.

On Debian 12 + Flatpak Firefox, how do I transfer bookmarks, bookmark folders, passwords, and extensions from one profile to another

My Flatpak Firefox v. 132 freezes regularly especially if I'm on a site with lots of images and videos (like YouTube).

I was told by another user that copying everything from the original profile's directory (profile1) to a newly created profile's directory (profile2) stopped the freezing issues for them:

/home/mario/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/cache/mozilla/firefox/profile1/

/home/mario/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/cache/mozilla/firefox/profile2/

However, after copying data from profile1's directory to profile2's directory, setting profile2 as the default profile in about:profiles, and restarting Flatpak Firefox, profile2 doesn't load up any of my bookmarks, bookmark folders, passwords, or extensions from profile1—Firefox runs as if it was freshly installed (it guides me through the process of importing bookmarks, passwords, etc.).

How do I resolve this issue?

Edit 1: I think that I may have gotten it to work. I transferred files from:

/home/mario/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/.mozilla/firefox/profile1/

to

/home/mario/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/.mozilla/firefox/profile2/

And everything seems to be working. I'll test this out and update this post to let you guys know if it really worked or not.

I'm using Flatpak Firefox (version 131.0.3) and it keep freezing especially on sites like YouTube. How do I transfer my bookmarks and passwords to an earlier version of FF without using Sync?

I'm going to use this guide to downgrade Firefox to something around version 127 or below because I did not have this issue with earlier versions of FF.

Btw where does Firefox store crash logs? I typed "about:crashes" in the URL bar but it says that "No crash reports have been submitted". I have also used journalctl to find these errors but I'm not sure how relevant they are:

org.mozilla.firefox.desktop[15004]: Exiting due to channel error.

org.mozilla.firefox.desktop[49355]: [Parent 2, Main Thread] WARNING: g_strv_length: assertion 'str_array != NULL' failed: 'glib warning', file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/toolkit/xre/nsSigHandlers.cpp:187

[Resolved] After updating through both APT and the Software Store, I can't play mp4 videos with VLC anymore. The screen goes blank for a second or two then the audio starts playing without the video..

I'm using Debian 12, Ryzen 7 5700X processor, and Radeon HD 5450 graphics card. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling VLC but it didn't resolve the issue. Here's an excerpt from the VLC's log file:

glconv_vaapi_x11 error: vaDeriveImage: operation failed

main error: video output creation failed

main error: failed to create video output

avcodec info: Using G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0 for hardware decoding

How do I resolve this issue?
