Firefox 90.0 update problems
After the last update to version 90.0, I can't continue to use firefox browser. The problem is about opening google sites (youtube, gmail). Other websites seems to work normal, but I can't open youtube and gmail now (google.com itself works heavily). When I type url and click enter, it takes so much time to load, often not loading the site or partially load. Other browsers installed on the same system works normally with the "problematic" websites. I tried hard reload (ctrl+f5), cleaning all browser data, and uninstalling and reinstalling. None of the mentioned actions helped. Please help me to identify and solve the issue.

Real quick, just try another user.
I tried with other firefox account, but that didn't help.
This issue still persists.. It's very annoying that I'm using Firefox as main browser for the last 3 years and it's very painful process to migrate to another browser. How can I escalate this issue further?
I wanted you to try another linux account not Firefox.
Try downloading a separate copy of Firefox and run it from the folder(do not sign into you Firefox account) to see what happens.

You can check the connection settings.
- Settings -> General -> Network: Connection -> Settings
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.
See "Firefox connection settings":
@jonzn4SUSE I tried adding another user account on linux and testing Firefox, but result is the same. Downloading a separate copy of Firefox and running it from the folder also didn't help. @cor-el Suggestions in the mentioned article also didn't help. I'm not using any proxy and removed all extensions for solving this issue. Disabling IPv6 and DNS Prefetching had no effect on my problem.
I should mention that the same problem also exists in Firefox (ver. 91.3.0) on my Android phone when using both wifi and mobile network. Also considering that other browser on my laptop works normally using the same connection, we can say that this issue is related to Firefox, not to network or operating system.
Note: I'm attaching screenshot from my phone to this reply. As you see, Youtube icon's title is "Cannot Comp...". I'm not sure what is the ending (maybe cannot complete request), but it shows that there is a problem opening this site.
Who are you using for DNS? Just for S&Gs can you do a traceroute to youtube.com?

DNS provider? Your times are much higher than mine. https://www.dnsperf.com/#!dns-resolvers

@jonzn4SUSE sorry, couldn't understand what you're asking. What should I do?
What nameserver is set as your DNS provider? Here is what I have set in /etc/resolv.conf. nameserver 1.1.1.1 nameserver 1.0.0.1

/etc/resolve.conf doesn't exist for me, but /etc/resolv.conf does with the following content:
- This file is managed by man:systemd-resolved(8). Do not edit.
- This is a dynamic resolv.conf file for connecting local clients to the
- internal DNS stub resolver of systemd-resolved. This file lists all
- configured search domains.
- Run "resolvectl status" to see details about the uplink DNS servers
- currently in use.
- Third party programs must not access this file directly, but only through the
- symlink at /etc/resolv.conf. To manage man:resolv.conf(5) in a different way,
- replace this symlink by a static file or a different symlink.
- See man:systemd-resolved.service(8) for details about the supported modes of
- operation for /etc/resolv.conf.
