You are most welcome!

Now as you have working firefox, you can import everything from old
profile if you are using Mozilla cloud sync, or if you don't, you can
try to fix old profile: CTRL+F5 on the page (forces to drop caches on
this page), clean cookies, clean cache, cache, disable addons, until you
have this resolved. Good luck :)

Please try new profile.

firefox-esr -P

is the command to run. Usually everything works on clean, new profile.
When you confirm that, you can concentrate to restore your old profile
to working order.

I do not know if it is related, but I have observed problems of parts of
some pages not displaying, or displaying as flat rectangles, just after
a Firefox upgrade to 78.15.0esr-1~deb11u1. I downgraded to
78.14.0esr-1+b1 for now.

Has anyone else the same problem/


Works for me (but I do not use the firefox package, I use the upstream 
software)
