Today I switched from Chrome to Firefox. Since I have two monitors one common thing I do is opening a new tab and then dragging it (the tab not the window) to my second monitor. But when I do this firefox freezes and the only I can do is stopping firefox via Tasmanager and starting it again. I also tried it in debug mode and the same thing happened. I can replicate 100% of the time.

I suspected it had to do with me using diffrent resolutions (4k and HD). So I changed the resolution to be the same, and it worked. Then I switched it back up and suprisingly everything is fine now. I don't know why, but it works now.
