Blank buttons on toolbars
It's been a while, but I've seen this before. What causes this? Can i prevent it? The blank icons also appear next to the most of the affected addons in about:addons.
I was able to restore normality, at least for the moment, by disabling those addons, re-enabling, then restarting.

Does it happen with Firefox in Safe Mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubleshoot-mode#
What theme is that?
You can try "Clear the startup cache..." via the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page.

I "solved" the problem for a few of the apps by disabling/enabling them, and re-pinning them, but for most, I had to drag and drop their .xpi's into the browser.
BTW, when posting here, I run into line spacing issues. I never know how it manifests until I post. We can see that double-space above. There is no adjustment. I'ts either that, or no space at all. Is that just me?

Are you using userChrome.css/userContent.css ?

Are you using userChrome.css/userContent.css ?I use CustomCSSforFx. The latest, unaltered version, about a month old, was in effect before, and currently.
I assume your wondering if that caused or contributed to the issue? All I can say is that the scripts were in place long before, and the are are included in several other profiles that don't reflect the same behavior.
I updated to Firefox 121.0 on 12/20. Frankly, I don't remember if the problem arose after that update, but I'm fairly confident I would have noticed the coincidence. I posted here on 12/23. I don't think I waited 3 days to report it. In any case, if there was of conflict or incompatibility with css, I don't see how my simple workaround would have had an effect on reversing the mess.

I did update to Fx 121.0 on 12/20. I "think" I would have noticed the coincidence. In any case, If there was some sort of conflict in compatibility, I don't see how my simple workarounds would have had an effect.
Did you try to clear the startup cache like I suggested above ?
Sorry for that redundant post, but I thought the first one had been removed somehow. I went away and when I came back, I couldn't find it.

Just curious, have you seen blank buttons like that before. Did clearing the cache fix it?
