Hi there, for sometime (4 months), Firefox dosen't load Facebook properly , it's just stop loading images, videos , or emoji things on Facebook, refresh dosen't work either, what is working is a restart of the browser.

Deleting cookies and cache, history, reinstalling the Browser, and such, only fix the problem temporary , like 1-2 days without issues, then the loading problem is appearing again, it's usually occuring in the first 5-10 minutes , almost every time.

The issue is definetively from Firefox, because my other browser load Facebook without problems. I would like to get an answer though, is this issue fixed in the future releases or i'm doomed with this problem from now on, and i will have to use an separate browser for Facebook.

Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
