Look at the last two options in Settings > General > Browsing ( Recommend extensions ... | Recommend features ... ). De-select them if selected.

Hi

Thank you for that screenshot, it really helps.

I do think that these are pop-up adverts from Mozilla, they look more like push notifications from websites that you have visited.

This support article should help to manage these:
