Does it still crash if you run the latest version 121?
If you want to use an older version you can install 115 ESR:
sudo snap install --channel esr firefox
The snap version needs a portal to show the file picker:
sudo apt install xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
I would run strace and then run tail -20 on the log (firefox_debug.txt) to see what's causing the exit. strace -t -o firefox_debug.txt firefox &
Is there a reason for the old version?
