Firefox always sets address to https
I assume that it's the same problem as this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1388431 but there is no solution.
https only mode is not active
browser.fixup.alternate.protocol is set to http from https browser.urlbar.autoFill is set to false
Nothing helped.
I get that this default makes sense but since so many local tools don't use http there should be at least 1 working option to disable this behavior at least for certain sites.

Try setting the following preference in about:config to false. browser.fixup.fallback-to-https

If it is falling back to https then the http server is not accessible.
browser.fixup.fallback-to-https
Was the solution.
Yes, it only falls back if the server is not reachable. At that moment. For every retry it will be annoying in a situation where something is already not working. And that's the best case where you can rely on that knowledge that the http site is actually not reachable.
Still give it a helpful rating because that best case is better then my situation before.
For some reason voting the answer helpful doesn't work, are there any new user quotas in place or something like that?

Disabling browser.fixup.fallback-to-https may stop some sites from working though. Better to leave it enabled and be mindful of the protocol when accessing known HTTP services. You can bookmark the site to make retrying easier.
