Release notes at ​https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/69.0/releasenotes/

Of apparent relevance to linux users:

Enhanced Tracking Protection (ETP) rolls out stronger privacy protections:

The default standard setting for this feature now blocks third-party tracking cookies and cryptominers. The optional strict setting blocks fingerprinters as well as the items blocked in the standard setting.

The Block Autoplay feature is enhanced to give users the option to block any video that automatically starts playing, not just those that automatically play with sound.

Security fixes listed at ​https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2019-25/ - the usual batch, please note that the one Critical item only affects Windows.
