Hi, Martin, FF release from Mozilla is working
fine here, and firefox-esr from Debian Bullseye
repositories too (I've just tested the site and
actions you mentioned).

This is what I have here:

$ apt-cache policy firefox-esr
firefox-esr:
  Instalados: 78.15.0esr-1~deb11u1
  Candidato:  78.15.0esr-1~deb11u1
  Tabla de versión:
 *** 78.15.0esr-1~deb11u1 500
        500 https://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     78.14.0esr-1~deb11u1 500
        500 https://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye/main amd64 Packages

$ uname -a
Linux debian 5.10.0-9-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.70-1 (2021-09-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux

What's your case?

Also: right now I'm using a USB-tethering Internet
connection (not Ethernet nor Wi-Fi):

$ ip route 
default via xxx.xxx.xx.xxx dev usb0 
xxx.xxx.xx.x/xx dev usb0 proto kernel scope link src xxx.xxx.xx.xxx

Just in case it has same relevance for your issue.

Best of luck!
