The answer is the same as two decades ago, nothing new: you have to do the packman switch.
I get that message all the time using PaleMoonx64 on Windows. There is no packman to switch to, but switching to Opera seems to work. One FF/PM extension has a nasty problem that causes breakage on some sites. Extension: RequestPolicy. It allows/disallows sites to be "referenced" based on the caller. Provides temporary and permanent permissions. Where I see problems is on google-related sites, where a 3rd level domain is autogenerated for some which adds a few bounces until a final fail -- the problem is that non of the failing URI's have the 3rd level domain in it, so you can't easily find out what is wanted nor can you add that domain to RP's whitelist. The only workaround at that point is to "temporarily allow all calls", then it won't fail, but since the URI is dynamically generated, you can't really add a white list entry that will satisfy RP. Real pain -- it should be integrated with NoScript, but anytime I've looked at it, I've usually made it worse and had to backout the change. !!!
