When I maximise the firefox browser the edges of the window have a weird white edge to them and it's really annoying. It only started this morning and I haven't updated my laptop recently so I'm not sure what the issue is. I've checked other programs and browsers and only Firefox has this problem.

Hello beccaaa67,

Please take a look at this bug report :

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1531058

You could (for now) set the value of the preference that is mentioned there, to "false" and see if that works.

If you want to, you could vote to show your interest for that bug report :

If you have any additional information to add, you can post a comment, but keep it to the point and concise. If you have no additional information but have the same problem : posting "I have the exact same problem" would suffice (and maybe post a link to your thread).

Is this happening only with https://wallpaperplay.com/walls/full/6/c/4/23094.jpg or with all wallpapers?

That was just an example I used. It's the firefox window that has this white edge to it so it appears on all websites, just more noticable with a darker background.
