After I upgraded my system (NixOS) from 23.05 to 24.11, both Firefox and Thunderbird experience a 30 second delay between doing right click and the context menu appearing.

After clicking on a menu option, there is another 30 second delay before the menu disappears and the action is carried out.

Happens also in safe mode, and after deleting the .mozilla directory and starting from scratch.

No other GUI on the system (including non-gecko browsers) are affected.

Firefox version is 133.0.3

Forgot to mention, disabling hardware acceleration doesn't help either.

And it is *exactly* 30 seconds always - like it's trying to do something and hitting a timeout. Something unnecessary, given that the menus show up correctly afterwards.
