That said, is this an issue at all screen resolutions? That still makes it a bug, just a different one, so just make sure you're reporting the right thing. Although hopefully the dev will be able to tell anyway.
Actualy it could be caused by the side bar in the left side of the screen (The bar that allow you to navigate between players boards)
You can disable it in the game options for the moment, and I will fix the issue in the next version!

Many users voiced their dislike of the recent BGA rebranding in this thread - https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=44917
The latest extension version allows you to remove the animated full-screen logo that appears when you change pages. It also slightly reduces the brightness of the logo in games in dark mode.
But I'm not going to go any further... it's not a style or a feature, it's a brand logo and I can't (nor do I want to) alter it!

After giving it some time to monitor it, I think the Firefox extension doesn't check the tables waiting for you when I start the pc and the browser for the first time in the day, when I trigger the tracker though it works fine afterwards. It might just be my old machine eh.

Could you please do the following :
After you first start Firefox, got to the url : about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox
Then click on the button "Inspect" next to "Board Game Arena (BGA) Extension".
It opens you a dev tools window, could you tell me what do you get on the "console" tab of this window?

I'll make a note of it to do it tomorrow, today it loaded normally, so it is not as consistent as I thought, this problem. And not a huge inconvenience, but yes it would be good to check what's up, you are right of course, I will.

Ok, nothing showing on the console before visiting the website and triggering the extension. I can show you screenshots before and after:

Managing background scripts with Firefox is really painful, but I may have found a way around this issue...
I just released version 1.12.24 (for Firefox only), which is already available. Please let me know if this version works better for you.

Yeah, no sweat. I will check it through time, if it works as intended. It loaded normally today morning by the way, a good sign.

Some tiny improvements can be made in the game "My City: Roll & Write".
If someone passes on a stone, the black color indicated how often you have passed, is not really visible in dark mode with 'suggested game colors'
