Only Firefox on Android keeps giving me "connection was reset" on specific website

I'm running Firefox version 153.0 (build #2016172927) on a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra running Android 16. Firefox works fine accessing pretty much any website I ask it to, EXCEPT for one: https://www.site2241.net/. This is my own website put together with nothing more than HTML, CSS and some basic Javascript. It also has HTTPS for secure connections. Roughly 90% of the time when I attempt to access this website using Firefox on my phone, I receive a "The connection was reset" error. This is only happening with Firefox, and only Firefox on Android. I have Firefox on two laptops and a desktop, with the desktop running both Linux and Windows. None of them have this issue, only on Android. I've now also loaded and tried Chrome, Opera and Brave on to my phone. None of them give me this problem. Only Firefox. I've tried changing just about any setting in Firefox that I can think of (HTTPS-only Mode both on and off, DNS over HTTPS both on and off, Enhanced Tracking Protection both on and off, etc) that might affect this, and nothing seems to change it. Go to the website, and most likely I'll get the "The connection was reset" error. This website, puny and pathetic as it may be, is kind of my running technical diary. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I'd really like to stick with Firefox. Thanks!

Every Time the Search Engine is Switched After a Query Has Already Been Searched, a New Tab Opens

Hello! I appreciate many niceties of the 148 update, but i'm having an issue resulting in many more tabs on Android mobile than I usually generate. When I search something and then want to sesrch the same query again using a different search engine (by selecting a different search engine from the tab bar menu) a new tab opens, leaving the query via the previous search engine open, and the current query of the current search engine in a new tab with focus. I'm aware that this behavior can be modified on desktop, but there is no such setting for android.

I would really love for this behavior to be reverted or optional, as it's made it so I need to clear out many tabs of duplicate queries (on different sesrch engines) and it makes me avoid using the built-in search engine switcher to prevent generating more tabs :( (which sucks because I have like 10+ custom searches and they're very useful!)

Synced tabs from Android device gone after ~3 weeks — need definitive retention policy

Hi,

I had Firefox tab syncing set up on my phone, and the synced tabs were showing up fine on my other devices for a while. About 3 weeks ago, that phone was lost (long story — it ended up in a river) and I haven't been able to sync from it since.

Now the synced tabs from that device are no longer showing up on my other browsers, and I need to recover some important information that was in those tabs.

A few specific questions:

What is the current official expiration policy for synced tabs data (as of 2026)? I've found conflicting info in old forum threads — anywhere from 1 week to a year depending on platform and Firefox version. Is there any way to see whether my account still has cached tab data for a device that's been disconnected/inactive for ~3 weeks, even if it's not displaying in the normal Synced Tabs view? If the tab data has expired, is there any other server-side record (even temporarily) that Mozilla could check on the account side that isn't visible to me as the end user?

Any help checking the account status directly, or clarifying the actual current retention window, would be a huge help. For my email address, please request below.

Thanks, Ebe
