The is a link for installation instructions, but I do not trust it. Am I wrong? or is there something else going on? Any help or advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks

That EOL warning is for your OS and not Firefox. What version of Mint are you running? I see Linux Mint version 21.

What Homepage do you have setup in your Mint provided build of Firefox? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-set-the-home-page

This message is not from the company Mozilla.

What version of Mint distro are you using?

19.0 and later are still supported till Aug 2023 or later. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Mint https://linuxmint.com/download_all.php
