I realize there's another thread that discusses some FF issues but this one is specifically about the 57.0 "upgrade."
Mozilla did it again, we have a new release of FF and it broke several of my extensions and there are no replacements. They intentionally stopped supporting a video feature that I used to use when looking at my surveillance videos a couple of releases ago but I used Chrome for that application.
Broken extensions:
JSOff - turns off Java scripting (I use this to avoid annoying popovers that want you to sign up to view content)
Flash control - stop the annoying Flash based videos
BBcodeXtra - using this is the easiest way to make a link in most forums by highlighting words and right clicking
I would move completely to Chrome but they don't have the rich set of add-ons (extensions) FF does. So I downgraded to 56.02 (64 bit) and life is good again.
