Does anyone know how to remove this? Is this something that just Firefox is proposing, or is Google tracking me through different websites?

I just ended up on a Reddit thread without being signed in, and I was prompted to "Sign in to Reddit with Google", and then below it showed my two different google accounts I use. I'm not of fan of this feature. Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

Thanks!

That is a feature offered by websites and you may see something similar for Facebook and has nothing to do with Firefox. Websites may notice that you have Google cookies though and thus offer to login via Google. A possibility could be to isolate websites via containers.
