Everytime I get push notifications from the sites I have enabled for the same, the minute I tap on them, they redirect me to a blank tab in the Firefox interface or the last open tab in the UI.

This problem has always been there ever since I have started using Firefox for Android.

For some reason, for like, 19 out of 20 times I try, I cannot google search anything on the Android firefox app. I type in the query. I hit search. It loads for a long time. And I am met with "server error".

No other apps seem to have trouble connecting. No other websites on the same browser and phone has these problems. I can kind if get by as long as I know the url. But as soon as I try to find anything where I don't know the url. I get the same Server Error. It's been going on for weeks. I've disabled all extensions and uninstalled them. I've been on multiple networks both at home and work and mobile networks. I have reinstalled firefox. I have tonight even cleared both cache and data. Other devices on the same network and browser can google just fine. Nothing I can think of has made a difference.

I google. I get server error.

Anyone hasany ideas I can try out? I am certain some kind of user error is involved. It usually is. But I am at a loss of what it could be.

On Firefox Android, every time i completely close the app and reopen it, I'm logged out of sync. Of course this is incredibly annoying and makes sync basically useless, since having to start a fresh session multiple times a day not only takes time but it creates a huge list of "devices" so sending tabs back and forth becomes a nightmare.

Any idea what might cause this? AFAIK I'm not swapping IP's multiple times a day and i haven't used a VPN during the time this started happening. (I do have ProtonVPN installed, but it's a fairly trustworthy company so i doubt it's that.)

I use firefox on my android Fairphone to play podcasts and videos because I don't want to have a zillion more apps and this matches the way I use the net on my laptop anyway.

One thing that bugs me is the notification bell every time I start watching / listening, and then the notification sound when it stops.

I've checked through the android settings (version 13) but I can't find it. Is there a control in Firefox which is causing the notifications?
