There is a video embedded in this webpage http://slippedisc.com/2018/08/what-moscows-new-concert-hall-sounds-like/#comment-475204 that doesn't display in Firefox but does display in MS Edge.

NOTE: This is just one example of the problem. It is most notable on the slippedisc.com website.

A similar problem happens on this website https://www.diynetwork.com/ultimate-retreat/sweepstakes?nl=R-DIY:UR2018_2018-08-24_Enter-DIY&bid=14256743&c32=ee510e44c646c5d1116f9d8f9c6fefac5560bd00&ssid=2016_HGTV_Dream_Home_2016_Wildfire&sni_by=1946&sni_gn=Male

There is a Radio Button that says "ENTER", Clicking on it does nothing. It works in MS Edge.

Chosen solution

The video in the article at the top is embedded from Facebook. Could you:

Double-check content blockers: Firefox's Tracking Protection feature and extensions that counter ads and tracking may break websites that weren't built to operate normally without the blocked components.

Do you see a shield icon toward the left end of the address bar, near the lock icon? that indicates Firefox is blocking content in the page from servers that may track you across sites. More info on managing the Tracking Protection feature in this article: What happened to Tracking Protection?.

Extensions such as Adblock Plus, Blur, Disconnect, Ghostery, NoScript, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin or uMatrix should provide toolbar buttons to manage blocked content in a page. There may or may not be a number on the icon indicating the number of blocked items; you may need to click the button to see what's going on and test whether you need to make an exception for this site.
