Try FF57 (beta). It is faster than chrome.

Thanks for sharing a much better fix for this issue.

I wonder what consequences this option change will have on future web services 
that make use of asm.js

Changing the value from true to false resolved the issue for me.

Thank you for that.

Hello Rupert,

In my case (openbsd current), this value of javascript.options.asmjs was
already  "true".
So, I've tried by setting it "false".

And with the value "false" it works :-). At least protonmail.com.
and few websites I've tried.

Thanks

Maybe you should try qutebrowser,

it is a great browser, very good for using with kb, and it works on the common 
stuff ( protonmail, gmail, hotmail, youtube, and so)

I don't like to be within the google lens working with chrome, but i neither 
like the way FF has evolved recently (no priv sep, too much ram and so)

Hope you can give a try to qutebrowser, like it and see if it solve your 
problems.

Reggards,

Manuel

I disagree about it it working in 6.1. protonmail hasn't worked for me using 
Firefox since 5.8 or 5.9. At one point the ESR worked but not the main version.

I always kept stable with mtier, although I don't know if it updated to full 
releases of FF or security patches only.

My MacOS/Win7/Debian systems have never had an issue with protonmail and new 
Firefox versions so I can be quite confident in saying this seems to effect 
just OpenBSD. In fact tell a lie, noScript add-on broke it recently but that 
was fixed pretty quick.

I did read the pkg-readme for Firefox when I first encountered this 2 weeks 
ago, but it didn't prove fruitful as I tried the 'create a new profile' 
recommendation but never solved the issue. I didn't try the '--safe-mode' as 
the pkg-readme only suggested using that if FF was not opening at all.

Och, who knows. I'm sure the issue will crop up for the maintainers at some 
point when it effects some web service they use so will eventually be rooted 
out I'm sure. In the mean time, suppose I can just use my other systems for 
logging on to email. It's not like OpenBSD is absolutely necessary to get on to 
my email or anything.

Thanks for the help/input, mate.

Regards.

Firefox version went from 52 -> 56 in 6.1 -> 6.2.

You might peruse the release notes for those firefox releases.

Re: protonmail.com broken on OpenBSD 6.2-Stable with Firefox

Hmm.. Yeah it works thanks. Well, it takes me to log in page. Once I enter my 
login information it took an age to actually get in to my account.. So much so 
that an alert box popped up within Firefox asking me if I want to wait or halt 
the page due to it taking a long time to load. I have never seen that Firefox 
alert in my puff before and. I have been using since '04.

Do you happen to know what the issue with Firefox is with this website on 
OpenBSD? I mean my guess is that it has to do with JavaScript in some way but 
why now? It wasn't like this on 6.1, so what changed?

Thanks for the temp fix though, much appreciated!

Hello,

Can you try with the safe mode: firefox --safe-mode.

This should work fine.
