Unless you have them synced to another copy of Firefox on your device or a desktop, bookmarks and tabs would be lost on reinstall. Please can you try the Beta version from the Google Play store?
I solved the problem by updating the application to an old version - installed apk of 91.1.0 (Build # 2015826185). For some reason, the installation didn't work at first, but now everything worked out (the phone is old, no wonder there are glitches).

Hi
Do you have an example of a page that you are trying to open?

I pinned a picture with error (in my first message). For example i tried to open google.com, btw this error happens in any page, that you try to open.
Do you have any add-ons installed?
Do you use any security apps on your Android device?

Yes, I have add-ons, but they were there even before I updated the application and everything was fine. By the way, I think they don't work already, since the page in which the add-ons should be also shows the same error.
I only use VPN, but I've also used it before. Anyway, the first thing I tried was turning it off (although judging by error, these are unrelated things)
I tried to google this error but it seems my case is nowhere to be found.
By the way, other browsers work fine, like Chrome and, more importantly, Firefox Focus.
Also i have a question: If I reinstall the app, are my tabs would be saved in the cloud or deleted without a trace?
