Facebook degrading Firefox user experience now?
Recently, most images on Facebook have stopped loading for me. Sometimes it's just a few images. Other times it's almost all images. The longer I scroll, the worse it gets. Today, I couldn't even see my own pictures. Are any other Firefox users having this problem, or maybe it's a server issue on Facebook's end?

What type of error is it? Time-out, blocked, ... ?
Both, plus failed connection something something...
Do you use a VPN? I've noticed a lot of cdn's have become very hostile to VPNs over the last year. Initially I blamed the VPN but I'm pretty convinced it's the cdn's at this point*.
*This is because I started using a private linode server as a tailscale exit node and boy does the internet hate that IP with a passion. Toggling between using that and my home computer as exit nodes is somewhat fascinating. The web is so rude when I browse from my linode box. So... now I use the linode exit node to let the jerks take themselves to the curb. Anyway images not loading randomly is one of the telltale signs of a jerk website. It even happens when using Google One VPN or Cloudflair's WARP+ nowadays. Switch them off and use my residential IP exit node and presto it all works again.
