Firefox will upgrade page loads to HTTPS and gracefully fall back to HTTP if that does not succeed. This behavior is known as HTTPS-First.

Wasn't this already the case? For a while?! I don't know whether this means HTTPS sites will load more reliably, or HTTP sites will.

Hmm, you might be right. But I've also seen some instance where it asks me to confirm if I wanna open the HTTP site
