SUMMARY
The year-end fundraiser box (which I see is "powered by Donorbox") doesn't work as well in Firefox (64-bit version 143.0.3 from openSUSE Slowroll) as it does in e.g. Falkon. 

I'm suspecting it is a Donorbox issue rather than your fault, but report it here since the kde.org website is where I observed it. I will not be sad to see you close with a comment that it is a Donorbox issue - especially not if you have forwarded the report to them :-)

Issue 1: There is no checkbox next to the label "Write us a comment"
Issue 2: Text entry field placeholder text obscures entered text

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open https://kde.org/fundraisers/yearend2025/ in Firefox
2. Observe first issue (see checkbox-not-displayed.png)
3. Click on "Write us a comment" in Fundraiser box
4. Enter some text in the text entry field that appears

OBSERVED RESULT
1. There is no checkbox next to the label "Write us a comment"
2. Text entry field placeholder text obscures entered text (see checkbox-not-displayed.png)

EXPECTED RESULT
1. A checkbox appears next to the label "Write us a comment" like it does in Falkon
2. Placeholder text disappears when I start entering text, or moves like it does in Falkon

Comment 2 Kjetil Kilhavn 2025-10-25 09:44:23 UTC
Ahhh.. Copy & paste bug in my bug report :-(

The second observed result should of course refer to the second attachment: 
2. Text entry field placeholder text obscures entered text (see placeholder-text-does-not-move-or-disapper.png)

Actually I can't reproduce this issue in Firefox myself. Are you using any plugins or extensions in Firefox that play with the layouts of web pages? Does the issue reproduce with Firefox in safe mode?
Comment 4 Kjetil Kilhavn 2025-10-25 20:04:50 UTC
Would you look at that - it seems the issue has been fixed!
When I loaded the page now Firefox it looked like it reloaded the donor box, because first there was no checkbox, and then it shifted the text a little to the right and the check box appeared.
