Re:Firefox 61.0 Released

I also had that, and it finally appears to be gone!
On the other hand, everything is blurry. I've searched to no end, and haven't found a solution. It looks like third-party apps used to when the rMBP was first released and apps that performed their own text rendering hadn't yet been updated to support it.
Any ideas?
Edit: I have no idea how this was even ever set in the first place, but a sibling comment mentioned the "Open in Low Resolution" flag that can be set on a binary, and it was enabled for Firefox on my machine. Either I set this manually trying to solve the performance issues (and somehow this setting persisted across uninstalls), or Firefox ships with this flag set. Unchecking it fixed the blurriness, and hopefully didn't bring back the performance problems.

It might have persisted across uninstalls (browser profiles often do), because people were suggesting the "open in low resolution" flag as a temporary fix for Firefox performance issues on Macs prior to v61 being released.
