Can't open projecteuler.net after new Nightly update.
I am on macOS High Sierra (10.13.3), running the latest update of Firefox Nightly 60.0a1 (2018-03-01) (64-bit).
When I updated this morning, the site https://projecteuler.net doesn't work, and it gives this error: SEC_ERROR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE
This site shows a warning on Chrome that is a little more helpful - NET::ERR_CERT_SYMANTEC_LEGACY
which leads me to conclude that certificates issued by Symantec have been deprecated, and will no longer work.
In Chrome, a warning page is shown, which can be overridden by going into ADVANCED, and opening the site.
There is no such option on Firefox.
But wouldn't it be a better idea to mimic Chrome in this regard, i.e. let the user decide what's good for him/her? I spend almost all my free time on this site, and I really don't want to switch browsers because of this.

I have found a solution to fix this problem.
Go in Preferences > Privacy and Security > Certificates
uncheck "Querry OCPS responder servers to confirm the current vadility of certificates."

This is how the page looks like (on my end): There is no Advanced tab. How do I bypass it then?
"Legitimate public sites will not ask you to add an exception for their certificate - in this case an invalid certificate can be an indication of a web page that will defraud you or steal your identity."
