HTTP warning now has 5s delay before "Continue to HTTP Site" is clickable (lemmy.ml)

This has started happening a while ago (previously there was not perceptible delay) and luckily I don't have to visit HTTP sites very often but it is annoying and I would like to get rid of it.

I know HTTP is bad TYVM. I only use this HTTPS-only mode to forcibly upgrade to HTTPS whenever possible and be notified if it doesn't work.

Does anyone know why this is happening and how to disable it?

I don't believe you can get rid of that screen, or the newly added delay, if you have firefox set to HTTPS Only mode

Looking at the support site, the only exceptions that seem to exist there are on a per-site basis: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/https-only-prefs

You could try poking around in the about:config I guess just in case it hasn't been documented yet.

Edit: added link and extra info

Note that I only want to get rid of the delay before being allowed to press the button, not the screen itself. I want an HTTP connection to remain an action I must explicitly initiate (as it should be).
