Attachment: Screenshot_2019-04-03-14-54-43.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0

Steps to reproduce:

Using it as usual. Not sure if reproducible, seems like FF sort of crashed.
Wish I was able to say exactly how it happened, but I cannot. I was doing the usual browsing and reading websites.

Actual results:

FF on Android 8.1.0. Using it worked normally, but today seemed to crash, now cannot exit FF. Occurred yesterday as well, but was able to get it to exit by rebooting phone. Today rebooting phone does not fix. Upon reboot, FF is run again. It reopens at whatever site or page it was on when phone was rebooted.
When I hit Android's Overview button: if nothing else is runing I see the "Clear All" button but it is greyed out, so I cannot click it. If other apps are also running, "Clear All' is active but when I click other apps close but FF does not. Attached s screenshot showing FF (About page) and the greyed out Clear All button.
In Android's Settings/Apps, I do a Force Stop: FF just reboots back to whatever site it was on (a page at theonion.com). (PS I have FF"s restore tabs OFF.) I try to Clear Cache for FF, but does not help.

Expected results:

FF should be able to exit. I hope I dont need to uninstall FF.

Gosh gee. Had the damned Pushpin highlighted at the top. If I click it now I can exit FF. Sorry for this bug. Never use that pushpin and I wish I could eliminate it. You can delete this bug, sorry for the inconvenience.
