email on 11 year old Samsung ph
I clicked the email I wished to read on my 11 year old Samsung ph and off we went to Firefox - BUT I got a face full of Facebook, with no sign of Firefox which appeared to have been pushed off the cliff. I don't have an FB app on my ph I have never used FB on any of my devices - I am much too old and busy with many more important things.
took me a while to find this page - thanks to my incurable bone marrow cancer I sometimes feel like I am and demented ancient. [thankfully most of the time I am coherent and sort of normal -but my whole life was upended when I was diagnosed a few years ago. the number of things this disease can do to one are quite astounding so I'm always looking for news surrounding Multiple Myeloma, as it is called.]
can I prevent that from happening? and, if yes, of course, how can I do that? thanks for reading all this
uhoh, I just realised I haven't updated FF on my ph - even tho I do it on PC when I see a message, or just check if one is lurking ...
could that be the reason for FB sticking their bib where it's not welcome? k

Like other browsers, Firefox can open a web page in an app based on a suggestion in the page. If you followed a link to a Facebook page, and the link opened in the Facebook app, that might be what happened. Since you say you do not have the Facebook app installed, can you tell what app appeared?
Also, any idea what version of Firefox for Android you are running? That's probably somewhere in menu button > Settings.
