Hello,

This is not fault of the new update. This error can be caused by many things, but I think that the easiest one to start with is disabling DoH. It is a measure that although secures your dns queries, may not be the best for errors like this. To do this, go to about:preferences#general and find the network settings. Click on change settings and turn off DNS over HTTPS.
