I just set xpinstall.signatures.required to True in about:config and that fixed it after a restart.

I can confirm this on Ubuntu 19.04 with Firefox 66.0.3. Changing xpinstall.signatures.required from the default 'True' to 'False' resulted in addons working again.

Worked for me on Linux, didn't even require a restart (some addons just reappeared immediately). Using Firefox from Ubuntu package management.

AFAIK that only works for the nighty/dev versions.

but only for dev/beta/nightly. Note that this won't work for the standard version of FF.

Curious, that shouldn't work on branded stable installs.

It works on Linux but not Windows or Mac installs. I assume that repo maintainers use different compiler options than the official Firefox binaries.

Are you using an Extended Support Release (ESR)? That's expected then.
