Can't add websites to my Android home screen.

I have a Samsung A2 and I'm having trouble adding sites to my home screen. I am able to add YouTube.com to the home screen by going to YouTube.com, clicking the menu, then clicking Add to Home screen. I then have a saved Firefox launcher on my home screen that when clicked goes directly to YouTube.com.

However when I try to add other sites there is no option to add to the home screeen. I'm trying at the moment with Lichess.org and there's no Add to Home screen option in the Menu.

I found this post (see attached) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1267519 which suggests going into about:config to change a setting, but when I enter about:config into the browser I just get a black screen.

These are the addresses of the two sites. http://m.youtube.com/# and https://lichess.org/. Is it not working because the Lichess site isn't a m-dot site?

What is going on here and how can I fix it?

OK I found the solution. Add to Home screen has been replaced by Install. So on sites like Google and YouTube the option is Add to Home screen, but with sites like Lichess the option is Install. Why? Why have two different options perform the same function?

OK I have the solution. It's quite ridiculous. The option to add Lichess.org to the home screen is "install". For YouTube.com the option is "Add to Home screen", for Lichess.org that option is replaced by "Install". Why? Why is there two different names for an option that does the same thing?

OK I found the solution. It's really very frustrating. The option Add to Home screen, is for some reason replaced by "Install". So for sites like YouTube.com and Google.com the option is "Add to Home Screen". For Lichess.org it is replaced by "Install". Why? Why confuse things with two differently labeled options that perform the same task. So frustrating.
