Firefox not saving passwords (68.0.1 on Ubuntu)

[Karl Auer]

This isn't strictly Ubuntu, but:

Firefox doesn't seem to want to remember passwords any more! That is,
it doesn't prompt me to save them, and doesn't save them. My Google-fu
has failed me, too.

This happens with a completely fresh profile, and the "Ask to save
passwords" option is definitely checked.

Oddly, some of the other profiles I use have stored passwords that work
just fine.

Anyone have more of a clue than me as to why this might be happening?

Regards, K.

PS: I only store passwords for MFA-secured sites... don't recommend
doing it otherwise.
