change in availability of beta VPN
I found out about the FF VPN beta a month or two ago and use it rarely. I was surprised today that clicking to enable it gives me a different beta VPN popup which required me to login. What is this about?

That sounds like Mozilla changed the VPN experiment/entry point, not a normal Firefox setting reset. The built-in/beta VPN prompts usually require a Mozilla account because the VPN service has to know whether the account is eligible/subscribed.
I would first check that the prompt is coming from Firefox/Mozilla itself, not from an extension or web page: open it from Firefox’s own toolbar/menu, and check the address/popup text before signing in. If you do not recognize it, close it and update Firefox, then try again.
If it is the official Mozilla VPN prompt, signing in is expected, but it may also mean the old beta access path was replaced or is no longer available for your account/region. In that case the safest answer is to treat it as a product/account availability change rather than a local browser problem.
