Change Firefox's default fonts (not just the "default font" setting, but really and truly, for all writing systems)

I want to change the default fonts in Firefox. The problem is that the "Default font" setting doesn't really do this. Going to the "Advanced" dialog shows the truth: for every single writing system, the entries are
Serif: (Default) Times New Roman Sans-Serif: (Default) Arial Monospace: (Default) Andale Mono
I want to change which fonts Firefox uses for these "(Defaults)," and I want those defaults to apply to every writing system. Going through every writing system and individually changing them - for every user on the system, mind you - is not an acceptable solution. I didn't see anything in about:config. There is a default, and it needs to be changeable somehow. How?

I'm on Fedora 31. Firefox was recently upgraded to 71.0 and I find a weird pattern in trying to open links from applications - possibly related to Slack:
If firefox was initially opened following a link from Slack, I can open other links from Slack, but trying to follow links from other applications (IBM Lotus Notes, or running "firefox URL" from a terminal window) fails with a "Firefox is already running" message.
If I open firefox from the desktop applications menu, the reverse happens. I can open links from Notes and a terminal, but following links from Slack fails.
I tried reinstalling firefox and slack with no success. Today I tried going back to an earlier version - firefox-70.0.1-4.fc30.x86_64.rpm - and everything seems to be okay.
It seems like something changed in firefox 71 that doesn't play well with Slack.

I am unable to get FF 63.0.3 to open .FITS image downloads with my preferred tool 'ds9', even if I specify the tool's path.

I'm using Firefox 63.0.3 on Fedora 29 Linux. When I download an image in .FITS format (standard in astronomy), I get the "What should Firefox do with this file?" dialog box, and select "Open with". The suggested application is Gimp, which is useless for my purposes; I want the astronomical image viewer ds9, a descendant of SAOimage. The dropdown menu does not offer ds9 as a choice, so I select "other", which opens a "Select Application" dialog box. This also does not list ds9, nor is it in the "View all applications" list, so I go to "Find new applications" which offers me the same selections in fancier format, but also has a search box. I put the path to ds9 (/usr/local/bin/ds9) in the dialog box, but the choice is not offered -- I get "No applications found" anywhere along the path.
This used to work. What seems to have happened is that a design decision was taken to create a special menu of Firefox-approved 'applications' and limit the user's choices to these alone. Is there any workaround, or am I stuck with downloading files I don't want to save and laboriously opening them by hand in a separate application? This is driving me crazy, or more accurately, even crazier.
No certificates in secure websites in firefox but other browsers do. Help!
When I click on the lock icon in the URL bar it always gives me "Connection not secure" on every webpage even the Secure ones. Chromium doesn't have this problem.

Hi, I have Firefox 68 (andoid) registered to Firefox Sync with all my credentials. Now I installed on linux Firefox 70, enabled sync for my account but credentials are no more synced. I think it is an issue due to a old Firefox account, created when there were no Firefox Lockwise.
I followed the migration guide but probably I was not able to understand the procedure: I
- disconnected sync on all my browsers
- sign in again from my android device with sync using the same email (I've read that is possible)
Help please!
PS: I tried to install Firefox Lockwise but credentials are empty for my account, despite I forced manually sync from my android.

I am having trouble running Firefox 68.2.0 on a fresh install of CentOS 7.7.1908. This happens whether or not a .mozilla/ directory exists. The problem happens when I invoke Firefox from the command line with or without the "-safe-mode" switch. No Firefox window come up.
Here's what the process listing looks like:
[cgr@mypc ~]$ ps -ef | grep firefox | grep -v grep cgr 14109 12544 0 13:04 pts/2 00:00:00 /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox cgr 14118 14109 0 13:04 pts/2 00:00:00 [firefox] <defunct> [cgr@mypc ~]$ kill -KILL 14109 [cgr@mypc ~]$ ps -ef | grep firefox | grep -v grep [cgr@mypc ~]$
[cgr@mypc ~]$ ps -ef | grep firefox | grep -v grep cgr 14434 12544 0 13:29 pts/2 00:00:00 /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox -safe-mode cgr 14444 14434 0 13:29 pts/2 00:00:00 [firefox] <defunct> [cgr@mypc ~]$ kill -KILL 14434 [cgr@mypc ~]$
[cgr@mypc ~]$ ps -ef | grep firefox | grep -v grep cgr 14465 12544 1 13:30 pts/2 00:00:00 /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox -ProfileManager [cgr@mypc ~]$ kill -KILL 14465 [cgr@mypc ~]$ ps -ef | grep firefox | grep -v grep [cgr@mypc ~]$
I must use the -KILL switch to kill the program.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem>?
Thanks, cgr

Adobe Flash plugin disabled after adobe update

I use Firefox Quantum 68.2.0.esr bundled with CentOS 7. All was ok until an Adobe update flash-plugin-32.0.0.293-release.x86_64 @adobe-linux-x86_64 was pushed out. Since then adobe has disappeared from the installed plugins list as well as OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems, Inc. is now disabled. I have tried reinstalling flash-plugin from the Adobe repository alas its reported as already installed. I have even tried a fresh install but no difference. The only way around I have found is to install 32.0 r0 plugin file being the most recent working. Updating again results in removed flash again.
Please can this be investigated.
How do I debug service workers on multiprocess Firefox 70?

When I open "about:debugging", then choose "This Firefox" from the left menu and scroll down to "Service Workers" I can see all installed workers.
I can unregister them, but I cannot start them, neither inspect them if they're running: the buttons are greyed out and if I hover the mouse there is a tooltip saying: "Service Worker start/inspection is currently disabled for multiprocess Firefox".
What should I do to debug my service workers?
I don't like the "never allow" button, how do I put the "not now" button back?

The current situation, since upgrading to version 70, causes me angst. Websites ask for permission to send notifications, and now I can't put it off, I have to decide immediately if I want the notifications, or to send them away forever. Even if there may be some way to reverse the effect later, I do not like at all having to make a decision that has some apparent finality about a website I do not know yet. I can't bear the question looming over the page, either, but as it stands, all I can do to make it go away is to click one of the two entirely unacceptable options. I don't want such a final decision on every random site I come across. I want to go back to putting it off until later. Please tell me how to make this stop!

Hi since upgrade to 70.0.1 (linux) I am having difficulty connecting to our corporate captive portal. Its detecting the portal and prompting me to accpet the risks and continue. But clicking the button to continue does nothing. Just sits on same page. I saw a post about the new captive portal features and to go into about:config and look for network.captive-portal-service.enabled and setting it to false, but seems a bit extreme to expect users to do this. As a work around I open up chromium and log in that way.
