I had posted another question here about 69.0 being the genesis of bad line breaking, and now a new thing I discovered.
In Firefox - and only firefox - if I'm composing a new message, pressing enter generates a single line break as I'd like and expect - new paragraphs require two "enter" presses.
EXCEPT, since 69.0, if I include a bulleted or numbered list in the message, when I end the bullets or numbering, the text below it inserts a forced double space with every "enter" press. That is, single-spacing before the bullet/number list; double-spacing after it.
Here is a "selection source" of a short message I composed:
======= <div id=":ol" class="Am Al editable LW-avf tS-tW tS-tY" hidefocus="true" aria-label="Message Body" g_editable="true" role="textbox" aria-multiline="true" style="direction: ltr; min-height: 376px;" tabindex="1" contenteditable="true"> Before the bulleted list line 1<br>
Before the bulleted list line 2<br>
Before the bulleted list line 3<br><div><ul><li>Bullet list line 1<br></li><li>Bullet list line 2</li><li>Bullet list line 3</li></ul><p>After the bulleted list line 1</p><p>After the bulleted list line 2</p><p> After the bulleted list line 3
</p><br></div></div> =======
If you notice, the "enter" generated a <br> before the list, then a <p> after it. Highlighting the lines after the bullets and removing the formatting (the slashed-out T in gmail compose) changes their selection source to:
======= After the bulleted list line 1<br><br>After the bulleted list line 2<br><br>After the bulleted list line 3 =======
As you see, the <p> is replaced with a <br> and the unwanted blank lines can be edited out.
This was fine until this month when 69 took over.
I'd like to see it put back to how it was in 68.

Firefox remembers logons even when this option is not selected.
When I sign on to some sites, if I left click, my logon info appears. I have everything in privacy and security de selected. I do not have this issue in IE.

I went to Extensions and Themes and tried to restore the previous color - tabs were gray, well aligned and visible squares. Now they are transparent and bland in the background color which is not what it was before. I have disability and working from home makes my work more difficult if i don't align distinctly the tabs in the color gray as before. It takes me more time to recognize them and click. Help please. I attach what i want to be, the gray and what is now one blue line. Looking forward Thank you Antoinette

Okay, I get that the new version of Tracking Protection can't be turned off. But the developers had no right to make a pop-up display as each site loads showing what Tracking Protection blocked. Users need to have the option to turn such notifications off, and between this and the fiasco you made blocking Adobe Flash, I am getting very close to shopping for a new browser.
YOU DO NOT GET TO DECIDE FOR THE USERS ON THESE MATTERS!

Firefox menus are shown in Spanish, while I explicitly downloaded English version and have English set as the only interface language. I happen to be on a Spanish version of Windows, but this should be irrelevant for Firefox. Note that the options are shown in English.
I want the menus to be shown in English.
In the attached image, note the mix of languages: Options in English, menus and tooltip in Spanish (actually some tooltips are in English, as in the second image). Note that Spanish is not listed as an interface language. (As a bonus, no matter how many times I press Remove on Canadian and UK English languages, they re-appear. Any way to get rid of them?)
This problem happened recently; for a decade the menus were in proper English on the same Spanish version of Windows. I twice removed Firefox from the system (without deleting my data) and re-installed it from US English version, once from MSI, then from EXE, to no avail.

I upgraded to Quantum 69.0 64 bit a day or two ago. Today I have discovered that when I go to print a web page from FF, it does not list my home network printer as a choice. I tested other apps, e.g. Chrome and MS Word and Adobe Rdr, they all still show my home network printer in their printer list, and I was able to print to it from Chrome. I have powercycled my printer, and rebooted my WIN7 PC, no help. My home network printer lists as Canon MF4270 Daves Office. My email is daveryan.cincinnati@gmail.com

Is it too much to ask for to have private browsing tabs without search fields?
Introduced around Fx 66; temporarily possible to disable by setting browser.privatebrowsing.searchUI to false, this setting was removed in Fx 69 beta 6, it seems, and now the search box is back.
Some said it is perhaps possible to tweak userChrome.css or userContent.css; I've not played with those, and, as it seems, they were also disabled in a 69 beta.
Why is it possible to have empty page in normal mode but not in private browsing?
Mozilla seems to be very fond of fiddling with minor things left and right.

I've just found that if I do Ctrl + mouse wheel, the page now zooms! I've used Firefox for about 15 years and never had this happen before. The only thing that's different today is that I have just uninstalled Flash?
How do I disable this? I have always used Ctrl+mouse wheel to control the volume. For me, it is essential to be able to quickly adjust the volume with the mouse wheel, and very frustrating not being able to!

Prior to upgrading to FF 69.0 I had my chrome file configured to hide icons in my bookmark toolbar. With the update to FF 69.0, the icons have reappeared. How do I fix this again? Previously I had utilized this method:
"Yes, you can paste the full code posted above including the @namespace line. The :not([container]) selector means that you still have the folder icons with bookmarks folders. If you want to hide the icons for folders as well then leave out this selector."
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#personal-bookmarks .bookmark-item .toolbarbutton-icon {
