Better late than never I guess?

Geez I just realized many people probably never lived to see this fixed... fuck. Now I'm sad and feeling extra mortal.

Most of us are immortal this days. We like to hang out in the deep blue sea

Oh no, I thought that was a feature. I came to rely on it to transcribe long tab titles into my text editor. Is there any way to restore the old behaviour in Firefox? Otherwise I'll have to stick with Firefox 118 or switch web browsers, since Firefox 119 seems to break my longstanding workflow. :(

Any ideas?

[-] fossisfun@lemmy.ml 48 points 1 year ago

(Hopefully) obviously /s

Thanks for fixing this issue! I didn't even know until today that it affected non-Linux systems as well.

[-] squid@feddit.uk 39 points 1 year ago

I saw this in a few applications, I wonder if it's a general bug with shared software code

[-] AProfessional@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Not many projects reuse anything from Firefox.

[-] pickscrape@lemmy.world 33 points 1 year ago

Finally! This one has bugged me for so long...

[-] QuazarOmega@lemy.lol 27 points 1 year ago

The real Bugzilla

[-] TheCaconym@hexbear.net 25 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I genuinely assumed that was a GTK bug, the more you know

[-] snowe@programming.dev 9 points 1 year ago

Yeah I never realized this was Firefox at all. I swear I saw it in other applications.

[-] AnActOfCreation@programming.dev 6 points 1 year ago

Hell I see this in Windows all the time. I think tooltips are hard!

[-] antonim@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 year ago

This bug must've been older than millions of Firefox users.

[-] Kuba@programming.dev 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah this bug is 8 Years older than me

[-] SpaceXplorer_8042@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

4 older than me. Holy shit now that hits different.

[-] russjr08@outpost.zeuslink.net 13 points 1 year ago

Oh. My. God.

Definitely one of the changes I'll be most appreciative of, that was incredibly annoying.

[-] owatnext@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Did they finally fix that?!?! Time to run a few xbps commands!! Why am I so pumped about this? Hopefully this includes the download preview panel, too!

[-] RoyaltyInTraining@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Never had that problem myself. Now I feel left out.

[-] Takios@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

That I would see this day...I can die in peace now.

[-] GnuLinuxDude@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Oh come on. Enjoy the patch a little first, then go!

[-] kuneho@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

these sticky tooltips, man...

even Windows has a sticky tooltip bug with the system tray since... well, since the system tray exists that isn't resolved (when it's on either side of the monitor)

[-] Krafting@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Oh.. finally!

[-] GenBlob@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Damn. I have dealt with this for so long that I forgot it was even a bug.
