Description
Firefox incognito breaks shared links like https://share.ipfs.io/#/bafybeiepri32ulf5wftfdksgwximf3bjgpuhp6qjmwzzbblnn7sx4z2lue
[Empty page is presented + various errors in the console](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/157609/106672546-7ebe9200-65b0-11eb-899e-07be56ecf4b2.png).
js-ipfs fails due to Firefox 85 doing something weird in incognito mode around datastore.
Not a huge priority, but worth fixing if time allows.

Research direction
Reproduce the shared-link failure in Firefox 85 incognito using the URL in the issue, and inspect the console errors shown in the linked screenshot. Trace the js-ipfs datastore behavior in that browser mode. Done means the shared link loads successfully in Firefox incognito without the reported datastore errors.
