You get the hourglass if you use ui.prefersReducedMotion = 1, possibly to disable the location bar breakout when you set focus to the location bar.

You can use ui.prefersReducedMotion on the about:config page to show or block some animations. In Firefox 78+ this includes the location bar breakout. In Firefox 80+ this replaces the tab loading indicator with an hourglass.

  • set the value to 1 if you want to block animations
    ui.prefersReducedMotion = 1
  • set its value to 0 if you want to see animations
    ui.prefersReducedMotion = 0
