Hi, i would like to set my pdf handling as follows

1. When opening a pdf link, i need the file to open in browser, don't want it to download 2. When opening from download history, i want it to open in my pdf software

I believe this was the default in old firefox(some years ago). Currently if i set it to open in browser, point 1 will work but 2 won't (i have to right click and choose "open in xx app") if i set it to always open in other app, 2 will work but 1 won't. Back then i tried some settings which downloads the file to temp folder and open from there, i don't want that (not needed the file in download history) pls let me know if there is a solution. Thanks

Basically the subject! suddenly was unable to watch ANY youtube video. I cleared my cache 2x, restarted firefox, started it up again in safe mode, nada. I was only able to use youtube in Chrome. Any ideas on waht it might be? I'm stuck in the eternal buffering wheel of "If your video doesn't start soon, try restarting your device".

Have just about abandoned for Chrome, no shutdowns after a week. What happened?
