Aged eyes are having trouble with size of thumbnails in pix choosers when called from inside of websites and apps. The thumbnails are too damn small.
When viewing native Apple Photos app, I can control the size. But when Photos is called through FF to add a pix, I can't tell a thing.
OSX.
Am I missing something?

Why won't LastPass extension install after it was disabled with FF update to vers. 71?

LastPass was installed and running until Firefox automatically upgraded to ver. 71 and now it's been disabled. Even though LastPass is a "recommended" extension, when I try to re-install from Mozilla I get the message "an unexpected error occurred during installation" (see attached file). LP users report the same problem on their site but it's clearly a Firefox 71 problem (LP works fine will all my other browsers).

Discovered this when playing video in IMDb site.
When playing video in IMDb site the small blue rectangle that slides out when you hover over it is centred on the middle of the right hand edge of the video play back window. This is exactly where the right hand play next video white arrow > is situated as well. When you wish to play the next video it picks up Firefox new Picture in Picture toggle instead of the next video arrow >.
Firefox is constantly signing me out of tabs and windows that I am still using/navigating – how do I fix this?

I am being frequently signed out of open pages on firefox as I am using them. This isn't a regular security settings/cookies problem, this will happen at random without closing the tab or page. The page will refresh or I will click a link to another part of the website and I will be suddenly signed out.
This started happening very recently and I can't point to any clear changes that would have caused it. Has anyone had this problem?

Using Firefox 71.0 (and previous), my bookmarks stored in folders on the Bookmarks Toolbar open up on another ddisplay than where Firefox is. I have to go to the opened meny on the other screen and select the bookmark there. This problem came with a resent update, but has been working nicely for several years before that.
Firefox 70.0.1 HOSTS file being ignored

Mac OS Catalina 10.15.1 In Preferences, DNS over HTTPS is Off. (I tried toggling that On then Off but nothing changed) In Privacy & Security I have Strict settings, though when Standard is selected the behaviour does not change.
I know that with DNS over HTTPS set to On that HOSTS is ignored. Not ideal but there you go. But with that Off Firefox did respect the HOSTS entries I have.
Something has changed?
How do I get Firefox to always use my HOSTS file before looking elsewhere?
Thank you
Why does Firefox 71 prefer an expired client certificate?

I have multiple client certificates in Firefox. When I go to a site which requires a client certificate it pops up the selector for the client certificate. With Firefox 70 (I think) by default it chose a matching and valid client certificate. Now with Firefox 71 it seems to sort the client certificates by serial number and thus the one selected by default is the first one in the list, which is expired in my case. Thus, now each time I go to a site where I need a client cert I must manually pick the correct, valid certificate.
Doesn't looks like an improvement to me. Or is there a new config setting which I have missed?

Network mode 3 means DOH should only resolve using DOH but I can still get to other sites instead of a message say "hmm where having trouble finding that site"
Does anyone have an idea as to what causes this issue?
I've just downloaded 64 bit Firefox on my Mac with the Catalina OS and now I have to sign into Firefox everytime I open it. Is this the new normal?
