I updated PM (Linux) today (to Version 27.8.0). When I started new PM: all my addons were gone, no bookmarks, standard gui ... profile was deleted.
I have a backup, so I copied an old profile in the palemoon-dir and i have my stuff back.
Be warned - make a copy before you update.

This was because of NSS library issues in 27.8.0; latest release 27.8.1 should have this problem fixed.
