IMDb stopped working properly on Firefox

For a few days now, imdb has been unusable on Firefox. It seems like all scripts on the site stopped working: I can't open any dropdown menus, see my own movie rating, play trailers or use the watchlist function, etc. I disabled all browser add-ons as a test, but no improvement. The only thing that worked was to open imdb in a new private tab, or use a different browser such as Chrome. I'm using the latest browser version (142.0 (64-Bit)) and haven't changed anything, so what's the cause of the problem?

@MrFilmJunkie Nobody else is reporting any problems so this is likely a local issue on your system, sorry. Please follow the advice in https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/common-issues/why-is-imdb-displaying-differently-on-my-browser/GF2ZAR69V859XLHF -- the fact that IMDb works fine in a private tab is a strong indicator that a browser plug-in is the cause of the issue. If you are using an ad blocker this will be the cause of the issue. Hope this helps.

Thanks! After clearing the browser cache, it seems to work again.
