This is a very recent thing I've had happening, presumably since an update. I will often have multiple FF windows open. In one of the windows, I'll suddenly not be able to place my cursor in the address bar on any tab. But other FF windows function fine. I have to close that window and start a new instance or drag a tab from a working window to another screen, then that will work fine for an unpredictable time.
I have no idea what specific thing I might be doing that touches this off, as far as I can tell I'm just browsing. I thought maybe I had a child dialog opening in a hidden window, but it must be hidden pretty good because I can't find it if I do.
Fedora Linux 42 KDE
Firefox 139.0
It's probably this bug: bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.…
It's a bug specifically on Wayland.
Try grabbing the tab and moving it and letting go, you don't have to move it's tab slot.
RESOLVED (stransky) in Core - Widget: Gtk. Last updated 2025-06-04.bugzilla.mozilla.org
This one's super annoying, I'm glad the tab thing actually fixes it for a bit because I was completely killing my browser every time before I learned about that.
Hope this fix goes live soon

Removing fluoride from water could result in 25 million cavities and cost $9.8 billion, study estimates
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/removing-fluoride-water-cavities-jama-health-forum/?utm_source=flipboard&utm_medium=activitypub

New research suggests that removing fluoride from public water would increase dental care costs and tooth decay for children across the United States.Sara Moniuszko (CBS News)
@CBS News Although if one really wants fluoride for their teeth they can go to a dentist and get fluoride treatments or they can buy a fluoridated toothpaste. The toothpaste companies will be glad to sell you pulp-mill waste if they can't dump it in city reservoirs. Per Google, and they are conservative and usually happy to allow you to be poisoned, these are some problems fluoride can cause.
1. Fluorosis:
Dental Fluorosis: Occurs when children are exposed to high concentrations of fluoride while their teeth are still developing. This can lead to discoloration, white spots, streaks, or even pitting and enamel damage, but generally doesn't affect the health or function of the teeth. Severe dental fluorosis is rare in the U.S. and is not caused by the recommended levels of fluoride in public tap water.
Skeletal Fluorosis: A bone disease resulting from long-term exposure to high levels of fluoride, leading to pain, stiffness, bone deformities, and an increased risk of fractures. It can cause bones to become hardened and less elastic, and in severe cases, crippling skeletal fluorosis can result in calcification of ligaments and joint immobility. Skeletal fluorosis is extremely rare in the United States and is not caused by standard amounts of fluoride in public water.
Non-skeletal Fluorosis: An early stage of skeletal fluorosis affecting the gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms like abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, bloating, or loss of appetite.
2. Neurological Issues:
Potential link to lower IQ in children: Some studies suggest that high fluoride exposure in pregnancy or early life could be linked to lower IQ or behavioral issues in children. However, research results are mixed, and most experts believe the evidence is weak, with no link found between normal fluoride levels in U.S. tap water (0.7 mg/L) and lower IQ. The Yale School of Public Health also mentions that recent research observed these negative effects at fluoride levels that were more than double the amounts recommended for U.S. community water fluoridation programs.
3. Thyroid Problems:
Possible effect on the parathyroid gland: In some cases, excessive fluoride may affect the parathyroid gland, potentially leading to hyperparathyroidism, which can weaken bone structure.
Potential interference with thyroid hormone production: Fluoride may interfere with iodine's ability to produce thyroid hormones, potentially leading to hypothyroidism. Studies show that fluoride may take up iodine receptor sites in the thyroid gland, potentially causing iodine deficiency.
4. Other potential problems:
Acute toxicity: Ingesting large amounts of fluoride in a short period can lead to abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, seizures, and other severe reactions.

cross-posted from: lemm.ee/post/65824884
Hey everyone
We’re really sorry to say this, but lemm.ee will be shutting down on June 30, 2025.
What you need to know
As of now:
- New user registrations are disabled
- Creating new communities is disabled
What you should do:
- You can export your settings at lemm.ee/settings to take them with you to another instance.
- If you're moving to another instance, consider adding a note to your lemm.ee profile with your new username. Your old profile will still be visible from other instances even after we go offline.
- Alternatively, if you want to delete your lemm.ee profile, now is the best time to do it, so the deletion can federate out before we go offline.
- If you're one of the folks supporting us with a recurring donation, please remember to cancel it (Ko-Fi donations should have been cancelled automatically already). Our leftover funds are already enough to cover our bills for next month, so we can keep things running without any more support.
Because of how Lemmy is built, everything posted on lemm.ee will still be accessible from other instances, even after we go offline.
Why this is happening
The key reason is that we just don’t have enough people on the admin team to keep the place running. Most of the admin team has stepped down, mostly due to burnout, and finding replacements hasn’t worked out.The sad reality is that while there are a lot of great people on Lemmy, there are also some who use the platform to attack others, stir up conflict, or actively try to undermine the project. Admins are volunteers who deal with the latter group on a constant basis, this takes a mental toll. Please understand why our admins chose to step down, and be kind to the admins on whatever instance you decide to join.
We know this sucks. We're genuinely sorry it’s ending like this. Thank you to everyone who spent time here and helped make it better.
– lemm.ee team

Lemmy actually needs more instances. The thing is that any lemmy instance can go down. We shouldn't depend on lemmy.wold, lemmy.ml or even lemmy.ca, but build instances so we can allow all these users to access lemmy. Just to add a factor, imagine all the costs for hosting an instance.
I wish I could host a lemmy instance, but at this moment I can't.
