I have never maximized a Firefox window and I never will. After the latest update, all new windows, whether they are opened from another page via right-click or directly from the toolbar icon, open in a maximized view. I do not want this. Is there a way to prevent your program from inserting itself directly on top of everything else I'm working on? Have I accidentally changed a setting I cannot find again? I'd like to know if I need to find a new browser.

You could try renaming the file xulstore.json.

The System Details show that you use Firefox 103 to post this question, current is 119.0.1.

Is your Linux OS still supported with updates ?

You can look at Firefox from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution.
