New Firefox update to mobile 79.0.5 has disabled access to about:config and I don't understand why. I was using that and I don't see how having access was a threat to anyone.

Flexibility is one of the reasons I've been using Firefox since version 1.0 in 2004. If you take that away or make it difficult to access you make Firefox unattractive to users like me. I'm choked. Moving flexibility to nightly builds means I can't have flexibility and stability in one browser. You've lessoned the quality of my experience and I sincerely hope you'll rethink your new inflexibility.

I've moved the thread to Firefox for Android support.

I hadn't noticed that the about:config page isn't working as I hardly use it on Android. The about:about page still works and about:config is present on the page. I checked some others and about:addons isn't working as well and I'm curious whether or why these pages aren't working.
