Specific Gmail account won't load in Firefox
When I attempt to access my default Gmail account, all I get is a blank screen. No Gmail loading icon or anything. However, I can access my other Gmail accounts, and when using a private window I can access my default account. The issue is not present on Chrome, but Chrome isn't my default browser as of now and until now I've found Firefox preferable. It doesn't appear to be any of my extensions, because disabling them and exiting Firefox made no difference. I've cleared my cache and cookies and it didn't resolve the issue. Ultimately, switching browsers is an option. It's just my last resort.

Try loading the default gmail and pressing CONTROL+F5 to force refresh it to bypass the cache.
Failing that, try safemode,
Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
- Click the menu button
, click Help 
and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
- On Windows: Hold the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
- On Mac: Hold the option key while starting Firefox.
- On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox -safe-mode
(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article to find the cause.
To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.

Ctrl + F5 worked!
