Firefox Community Forum

How do I roll back an update that is not working on my system? I am very displeased with Firefox overall. You are a memory hog and no settings that I try help. Now, when I open a new tab Firefox freezes and I often have to close and restart, sometimes more than once. You are pushing me away from your product. I am now looking for a browser that is user friendly and compatible with my older computer (windows 10 is the most upgraded OS I can use). I hope to hear from you with a resolution soon.

Since a while, I think it is since I created an extra testprofile with "firefox-esr -P", but I've set my main profile as default again

When opening a link in another program than firefox I get always: a popup "Close Firefox" "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To use Firefox, you must first close the existing Firefox process, restart your device, or use a different profile."

I do have both firefox and firefox esr, I usually use regular firefox the second came with the debian 13 repository.

I keep the esr to test display issues for reproducibility on my personal desktop, because I manage debian 13 kiosk-style desktops with firefox-esr.

(I noticed also that the regular firefox profiles can not be opened in firefox esr, so I use an extra profile for esr)
