Comment submission to various websites is Erratic in Firefox NOT Chrome.

Commenting to Yahoo.com news articles via OpenWeb: https://www.openweb.com/powered-by

When I get an email telling me I've got a response to a comment that includes an embedded 'Reply To' button  and I then click on the 'Reply to ...' button, the Firefox browser opens a new Tab with the target page/article at the Comments section. The related target Comment will show for a second or two at the top of the Comment section for me to make a reply, but before I can, the page reloads(?) or the Comment section mysteriously jumps to the top of the Comment stack of most recent Comments, burying my desired Comment in preceding chronological Comment 'History' order, underneath the most recent Comment.  'My' Comment can then not be located without loading and sifting through 100's of more recent Comments.  Google Chrome doesn't do this--Chrome leaves me sitting right on top of the desired target Comment waiting for me to write my reply.

I know this sounds awful petty, but it annoys me.  So I decided to whine about it.

I get what you mean—Firefox making you jump back to the top is like trying to lose weight in a calorie deficit but not seeing results. On the surface it should work simply, but in practice, hidden factors get in the way.

Firefox lands on the right comment from the email’s Reply To link, then auto-refresh jumps me to the top of the thread. Chrome stays put. Please preserve the anchor after refresh. More info click slidein.net

I’m noticing that comment submission behaves inconsistently across different websites when using Firefox. Sometimes the comment doesn’t post at all or requires multiple attempts, while in Chrome the same sites like JarMOD work smoothly without issues. It feels like a Firefox-specific problem. Has anyone else experienced this, or is there a known fix/workaround?

Happens to me too — not petty at all. Sometimes the tiniest bugs are the ones that bother us most. Reminded me of something I stumbled on online that talks about these everyday frustrations.
