Hi, I tried to reproduce this issue but the page loads correctly on our side in Release 78, Beta 79 as well as our latest Nightly build 80.0a1 (2020-07-01)
Does this issue occur with a fresh profile ? can you please create one and try this again ? you can find the steps here on how to do that : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Managing-profiles#w_starting-the-profile-manager

Also can you please try our latest Nightly build ? you can find it here: https://nightly.mozilla.org/

Did you try to select one of the topics in the web site ? It does not happen when you first load that main page. It only happens when you go to one of the topics within the page.

Flags: needinfo?(9210rbw)

I restarted Firefox with all the add on items disabled and the problem still occurs.

I down loaded nightly and the problem seems to have gone away. Do you know when the new release will be released ?

I tried different topics from the page but no issues occured on my end, did you also tried with a fresh profile ? or safe mode ?

Also the next Firefox Release version will be available on the 2020-07-28, in the mean time can you please try our beta build and see if the issue occurs there as well ? https://www.mozilla.org/ro/firefox/channel/desktop/

I will set a component for this issue and maybe one of our developers can reproduce on their end as well.

Since the status are different for nightly and release, what's the status for beta?

I've been getting the same error. I can't tell if I'm able to upload a photo, but I took a screenshot. The "Borken" threw me off.

Actual results:

Same thing happened to me just now. I think it has something to do with firefox and adblocker plus acting up

https://gyazo.com/04ff06d650fa917a98705110b658ab0c

I have the problem as well and I don't have adblocker installed. It seems it's mainly the built-in JSON viewer which can be disabled for the entire browser, but you cannot disable it for a single website. I do need it for other websites, just not for healthline

This seems like a website bug. It's returning a JSON error.
