Hello,
After trying to refresh a dial (try by visit method for example), wait a few seconds, then open main menu / Advanced / Show error logs.
And look for errors - or click the "send e-mail" link to send me the report through email and I'll check it here.
Screenshots (thumbnails) are stored in a special database, which is a bit fragile in browsers, so I suspect to see some IndexedDB errors there.

So, looking at your report, there is this line:

 28. 4. 2025 11:04:47 1140ms, bc - reloading tab issue: discarded

It seems that something is discarding (putting to sleep) your inactive/hidden tabs.
Do you have addon installed that could do that? Some kind of auto-tab-discarder?

Scheduled reload of a dial can be found where?
v 27.2

Maybe I'm confusing dial thumbnail with tab.
I don't find a reload tab every # seconds/minutes/hrs

The "Auto-reload" is a dial specific setting, you can find it in - right click dial / "Edit dial" / Auto-reload tab.

Let me explain how it works.
To create the thumbnail of a page, my addon needs to load the page in a special container (called "iframe") in a hidden tab, and then take a screenshot of it.

The error in your logs says that the hidden tab that creates the thumbnails got discarded.
Which shouldn't happen, unless you have some other addon that can do that or unless Firefox changes some settings and is now auto-discarding inactive tabs.
