hello,

when browsing reddit-

https://www.reddit.com/

If I click a post and read it, then click the back-arrow to return to-

https://www.reddit.com/

It takes me to the top of the page, instead of where I was when I clicked the individual post.

Other browsers return you to where you were when you clicked the post.

WIN 10, latest version of firefox

That isn't happening here. Try clearing cookies and, if that doesn't work, troubleshoot mode.

Thank you for the reply. Still having the problem. Cleared cache, cookies, all content including site data. Just started using firefox, so no added themes or extensions. Tried troubleshoot mode, didn't resolve the issue.
