Firefox is now dead to me
I'm not sure if you considered the world of engineers. We deal with a very diverse set of hardware and infrastructure. Firefox has always been my go-to, it worked with everything. Now? It works with almost nothing. Java is now non-functional, plugins are barred from running, it's over. You think we are in love with java? No. The bloated POS was forced on us years ago... but WE have to live with it. What kind of world is it where I am forced to revert to Internet Explorer? You left system administrators high and dry with no ability to make our own decisions.. well, at least not without hacking everything to death EVERY time you update it. It's over, Mozilla. We can't manage half of our devices anymore. i've had enough

Try using the ESR version.

I currently use the ancient ESR 38 version because I am damn tired of extensions becoming incompatible; but then again, I dumped applications that relied upon Java over 10 years ago. Haven't even had Java installed for the last 5 or 6 years for "web sites" that needed Java to function.
I know it is frustrating, but the "handwriting has been on the wall" since Oracle bought out Sun Microsystems back in 2010 and further development of Java just about ended (unless it was specifically for use with an Oracle application.)
Java is still alive, only browsers no longer support the Java plugin and websites need to adapt and change to other ways to invoke Java applications.
