FireFox desktop will not load (most) pages
I use FF on desktop. Recently, I've run into a problem. My desktop browser will not load any pages... except Youtube. Youtube loads just fine, I can open a video or browse channels or community pages normally. I have fully reset my browser, reinstalled it, and disabled extensions. Other browsers on my PC will work normally. I have very few extensions: Sponsorblock for Youtube, uBlock Origin, and Facebook Container, that's it. I am not using a proxy or VPN. Troubleshoot mode did not fix the issue. I'm not the most tech savvy, so I apologize if I missed anything here.
Any insight is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Emmy, sorry for the delayed reply! Assuming this hasn't resolved itself by now:
When a page doesn't load, what is the reason Firefox gives, if any? For example:
- Site/Server not found
- Timed out trying to load
- Just got a blank page
- Secure connection error
Details from the error page could be helpful.
If I try to load a page, it will sit idle for a minute and give me the message "The connection has timed out. An error has occurred trying to connect to (website.com)." I will sometimes get the following message as well: "Secure connection failed. An error occurred during a connection to www.pbs.org. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR. Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR."
Further testing allows wikipedia.org, ebay.com, nytimes.com, duckduckgo.com, netflix.com, hulu.com and amazon.com to load; a seemingly random collection. Google.com will load, and I can search, view images, shopping, etc. However, clicking a link to most websites won't work.
