I tried following these steps but it didnt work. Is it possible to turn this off in about config or hide it with a userchrome.css style sheet?

You can select what suggestions to show when you enter an URL in the location/address bar. See Suggestions from...":

  • Settings -> Search -> Address Bar — Firefox Suggest

None of those options remove this kind of tip. It is called a URL feature tip or invervention and following the steps below I believe worked in the past but not on current version (130.0b8 (64-bit) Developer Edition)

I was referring to the two Suggestion settings that appear just below what shows in your screenshot.

  • about:config => browser.urlbar.suggest.quicksuggest

browser.urlbar.suggest.quicksuggest = false doesnt help

There a\re currently two quicksuggest prefs that are controlled by the "Suggestions from..." I mentioned above.

  • browser.urlbar.suggest.quicksuggest.nonsponsored => false
  • browser.urlbar.suggest.quicksuggest.sponsored => false
