is it working in another private browser? If yes, Than might some JS file not correctly uploading in private mode, I think its web issue...

Yes, works as expected using Chrome in Private Mode.

This is another case of Firebase not working in private browsing mode, because of web storage APIs being unavailable.

A work-around which fixes the site breakage just landed in https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D149711

I've also confirmed that the page loads on the latest nightly.

@Raul, yes, it turns out that in bug 1776109 we broke the Firebase-fixing shim. I've got a new patch in the works to fix it.

If that's the problem you face then try to change the browser may be this problem does not appear again.
