This is a server-side redirect. Any Fennec UA I throw at it does an immediate 302 redirect to the fallback page. We'll have to contact Google and get them to determine what's broken on their end.

Edit: I've just contacted Google to investigate this.

Edit #2: Google has logged the issue internally.

So, on desktop it's redirecting to https://www.google.com/locationhistory/delete when I'm using my mozilla gmail account both in Firefox and Chrome:

The redirect is not happening when I'm using my personal gmail account on desktop, it works as expected.

So I've looked into adding an override for Firefox for Android. The only issue I've noticed is that when trying to tap a red dot with location, it won't get highlighted. It takes 3 or 4 taps to make the name appear, or sometimes it doesn't appear at all.
This is the expected behavior:

We still can add the override since, perhaps, this experience is better than nothing.
