Thanks a lot for fixing/publishing that.
There's a minor glitch in the article remaining - about:config links
point to "https://fedoramagazine.org/firefox-tips-for-fedora-31/config
instead" of "about:config" - can that be fixed?
Thanks
Martin

Thanks for this overview Martin. We can call this article something
like
"Helpful hints for Firefox users on Fedora," if folks agree. Go ahead
and
draft it and we'll see about getting it published soon.

Hi Paul,
It generally should pass such messages to users:
- Wayland is default backend for Firefox, if anything goes wrong
try to
install/run Firefox-x11 package (you may also set is default at
settings
in this case).
- Flash plugin does not work under wayland, it's disabled. Use
firefox-x11 for it.
- To save energy/CPU cycles you can enable HW acceleration by
setting
layers.acceleration.force-enabled to true at about:config.
- File any Wayland related bug at bugzilla.
I think especially flash plugin may cause some confusion as it's
not
visible under Firefox/Wayland.

What are
the issues you're addressing? I'm not familiar with them. I do
think we
would like to have an article for sure. Is this something we
should
publish
before the release, so users know before upgrading?

Guys,
I'd like to submit an article about Firefox in Fedora 31 to
cover the
default Wayland topic, put some advice there and possible
tweaks, x11
fallback and so on.
I'd like to coordinate that with you and I also don't know
what's the
Fedora 31 release date / when this article should go out.
Thanks,
ma.
