What cookies (website url base) need to be on the exemption list (without third party cookies being checked) in order to log in to Mozilla.org?
On my laptop with Firefox, I always had third party cookies disabled. I always had base sites on the exception list that way I didn't get the unwanted stuff but could still access the websites without issue. Since certain cookies need to be available for the site to work.
ex: www.imvu.com is on the exception list
Anyway, my laptop kaput. Aw, saddays. But, I got a new computer. Sweet! Alright, I set up stuff the same way. Obviously I don't have my plethora of exceptions.
I added mozilla.org und even support.mozilla.org (even though the second one should be irrelevant since all you need is the base url).
Hey, I still can't log into Mozilla.org without enabling third party cookies.
So, Mozilla...the ever friendly frustration that we love.... Can you please tell me what I need to add to the exception list in order to access und use your site WITHOUT having to accept third party cookies.
I mean, I know I haven't had a computer for a month. But still... I should be able to access your site, like I was able to on my laptop with the acceptation of third party cookies turned off/unchecked.
I wont accept anything less than keeping my third party cookies unchecked. I will move to another browser before I allow that nonsense.
Refer to photo for specifications.
I greatly appreciate the help. Now, with that asked...I'm now going to make a new thread for the question I originally tried to log in to ask... Ahem. ~Dawdles off.~

You need to add the protocol in current releases and use the full domain.
You can let the cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies.
- Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Keep until: "I close Firefox"
- you can create a cookie "Allow" exception to keep specific cookies.
- note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exception for password and other website specific data
You can temporarily allow all cookies or use a second profile to check what cookies a website creates.
You can add -no-remote to the command line to open another Firefox instance with its own profile and run multiple Firefox instances simultaneously.

Thank you so much! changing "http://" to "https://" has fixed all of my cookies issue. Not just on here, but the other two sites I was having issues with. Not sure when the protocol changed, because they started being problematic while I still had my laptop. I just need to remember to put "https://" whenever I add* a base site.
By the way...all I needed to add was "https://mozilla.org." anything of "mozilla.org" would be permitted, it's the BASE url. Now it works. Ta-da!
Thank you so much.

Easiest to set website specific exceptions for the website in the currently selected tab is to do that via the "Tools > Page Info > Permissions" window. Only for third-party websites you would need to do this manually or open the website in a new tab.
You can inspect cookies and passwords for the domain in the currently selected tab.
- click the "Site Identity Button" (control center 'i' button) at the left end of the location/address bar
- click the arrow to expand the security message
- click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info"
- click "Permissions" to inspect and modify permissions
- click "Security" to inspect and modify cookies and passwords in a standalone window
- click "View Cookies" in "Tools > Page Info > Security" to inspect the cookies from the domain in the currently selected tab
- click "View Saved Passwords" in "Tools > Page Info > Security" to inspect the passwords from the domain in the currently selected tab
