User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:64.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/64.0

Steps to reproduce:

This started happening suspiciously close to the time that #1518239 did. Unfortunately, this is also not obviously reproducable, but it has happened to me several times over the last few months.

Sometimes, I will no longer be able to long-press on links to open the context menu. The page itself and the rest of the UI is otherwise responsive, so it doesn't seem like anything is blocked. It's just that long-presses sometimes stop working. The associated haptic feedback is also missing on those occasions. Waiting doesn't help.

Again, like #1518239, I can "fix" this by closing the app via Android's app switcher. On one occasion, however, this resulted in all my tabs being lost (see #1298912). In general, the reliability of Firefox seems to have taken a dive over the last few months.

This is on Android 9 on a Pixel 2, if relevant.
