Hello, all the sudden, news site comments don't show and after research here I learned it might be enhanced protection tracking settings. I tried all the settings and nothing seems to work well (not tech savvy). Strict = user comments blocked and all the other settings allow so many ads they cover content and/or there are a hundred on a page. On a desktop. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

Some Disqus subdomains are blocked by Tracking Protection Strict mode what affects comments.

You can use a wildcard to allow several Disqus subdomains. Create a new String pref on the about:config page.

  • about:config => urlclassifier.trackingSkipURLs => *.disqus.com,disqus.com,*.disquscdn.com

Close and restart Firefox to apply the changes.

You can open about:config via the address/location bar. You can read the warning and click "Accept the Risk and Continue".
