Widget are missing since 153 update

Hi,

So I got a new update and Widget (every single one) are missing on my new tab screen.

I checked about:config and they're still there and enabled, so I really dunno what is causing this issue because with troubleshooting I did it seems to be server side? As I downgraded to 152, or even upgraded to 154 and they were also gone there, which is odd as I saw a few new widgets being added in newer versions.

Also when I "refreshed" firefox it appeared there for a time, but once I restarted Firefox it disappeared...

It happened to me too (and to several computers I manage)—the widgets disappeared with 153 version update... but just today they “magically” reappeared.

However, I must asking the developers for more stability in this regard... you can’t offer me a to-do list widget without the assurance that I’ll be able to find it again...
