The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Fenix::General' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Do you mean Fenix rather than Fennec?

It seems like you should be opening this bug on the non-mozilla browsers then, right?

Wasn't aware that Fennec isn't an official Mozilla build as everything, like the about section or description on Fdroid points to Mozilla.
Does it mean Mozilla does not provide an official build on Fdroid, which would be a shame?

The Fennec fdroid page says:
Fennec F-Droid is based on the latest Mozilla Firefox release. It has proprietary bits and telemetry removed, but still connects to various Mozilla > services that can track users.
The same reason they had to remove stuff is the same reason we can't put Firefox there. I'm really not an expert on this stuff and I doubt anyone who is will be reading this bug, but google has a number of hits asking about this.
I don't think there's anything actionable we can do here, so I'll close this, but feel free to reopen it if you think that's incorrect.
