Hello, thank you for reporting this issue! This issue is a duplicate of Bug 1644248. It will also be fixed in Firefox 79.

Right now, the workaround is to set the preference devtools.responsive.browserUI.enabled to true in Firefox 78. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1649537#c6 for more background on this. It's important to note that Responsive Design Mode should be closed before setting this pref to true to avoid any unexpected behavior.
