Firefox was running very slowly, so I cleared the cache. Now I cannot open gmail. When I try, gmail opens a page that prompts me to set up a new account. Gmail opens fine in Safari & Opera. I do not have any security apps loaded that might create a conflict.

My Firefox setting has DNS over hTTPS enabled no extensions and configured for cloudflare and my about:config settings network.trr.bootstrapAddress;1.1.1.1 network.trr.mode;3 network.trr.resolvers;[{ "name": "Cloudflare", "url": "https://mozilla.cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query" }]
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 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?

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

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.

Am I missing something?

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 has always made me feel happy. But I am having significant problems with Mac OS version 71.0.
I am running a macOS Catalina v 10.15.1 on a 3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5; 16 GB 2400 MHz DDR4.
I am NOT having a performance issue. Instead, the browser is not responding as expected when given tasks.
1. It will not open a link in a new tab. The tab does not open and it's as if I never clicked on the menu item. Same with open in new window. 2. It will not open the default search engine from the URL bar. Instead, it responds as if I mistyped a URL. 3. It will not allow me to set a Default Search Engine. The option to do that in Preferences is a drop-down arrow that does nothing when clicked. 4. It will not allow me to Remove an add-on. Usually issues with Firefox are related to add-ons, but when I Remove an add-on, then restart Firefox, the add-on is still there. 5. (silly, minor issue) I'd like the tab bar to be dark, again. The white tabs are too bright! I know this is silly, but you asked...
I did run Firefox in safe mode and all of the same problems continue to occur. I did reinstall FF v. 71.0 and all of the same problems continue to occur.
Help. Please.

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.
Why does Sync prompt me to install "on another device" when this is the fourth or fifth active device I've logged into the account with?

Over the past few days, I've logged into Firefox on a few new devices - mainly, a Windows partition on my computer, and on a school computer.
In both instances, after logging in, it doesn't give me any indication of being finished - instead it prompts me to "install on another device". Most recently, on this computer, it asked me to send an SMS to my phone to login to Firefox Sync on my phone.
This would be reasonable, except for the fact that I'm already using Firefox on my phone, and have it actively logged in with the account I'm logging in to. When I go to look at my devices on accounts.firefox.com, I have 6 devices listed, including my phone "last seen 7 hours ago" and my main computer "last seen 3 hours ago". It's clear to me that these are active devices, and that I don't need to install on any other devices to get sync working.
The main reason this is annoying is that I don't get any confirmation that I've completed logging in - only a prompt to do something unnecessary. I can work around this by simply ignoring the prompt, but I'm concerned for other less tech-savvy consumers who might be confused, thinking they're still not done when they login to Sync on their second device! Imagine someone logs into their phone first, and then the computer - it'd be pretty confusing to then have the computer ask them to sign in on the phone.
I personally was slightly confused, and had to double check that bookmarks were actually syncing and that I hadn't accidentally made a new account or done something to erase my previously logged-in devices...
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?
