Issues with facebook in Firefox iOS

I used facebook's desktop site within a browser on my iPad as I don't like having both the facebook app and messenger app installed; plus I find the normal desktop site interface easier to use. For most features this works ok, but I find that when I tag someone in a comment and then hit enter to post the comment, Firefox for iOS starts a new line rather than posting the comment. This also occasionally happens with normal comments where I haven't tagged someone. As there's no longer a 'Post' button on Facebook, it simply means I can't add my comments on. It's driving me mad. This issue does not occur in Safari and has been a problem for a number of months. I'd hoped the recent heavy overhaul of FF would help but it hasn't changed anything.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Please can someone tell me if there's any way I can report this directly to Mozilla as a bug rather than posting on the forum?
