LibreWolf Version

151.0

Operating System

macOS

Installation Source / Package

Official distro repository

Description

Whenever I click a link taking me to a post at https://x.com I then need to reload that x.com page for the Log in / Sign up banner to disappear at the bottom. It noticed it when accessing X from this website (scroll down to end of article for links). There's no need to log in repeatedly, it just disappears after the reload which means I'm already logged in. The same anomoly shows up every time I go to a new x.com page. https://x.com/ is listed in Manage Exceptions in Cookies and Site Data and it always worked as expected until I updated to 151.0. I tried clearing the cache and cookies but that didn't help. I also deleted the x.com entry in Manage Exceptions and re-added it. The same bug didn't show up when I tested it in Firefox 151.0.

** Re How did you install LibreWolf?
I recently started using a script to download and install LW from librewolf.net. The script was posted here: keeping up to date on macos. No problems showed up after downloading 150.0.3, it's just with this latest version.

I think X needs ETP disabled to function correctly

Thanks. Disabling ETP didn't make a difference unfortunately. I also allowed Canvas data and turned off EFP but no change there either. It looks like the bug is only in my main profile because I tried a new profile and X pages opened normally. Not sure which file is corrupted so will try a few things tomorrow and possibly reinstall it. Will close this once it's fixed.
