Every time I run Firefox 152.0b10 on Macos Tahoe 26.5.1 Mini it flickers and crashes. Its reporting a webrender compositor error. I made a new installation and it worked but I will have lost all my extensive userChrome/Content customization, as well as hours of time today and more hours to come transferring across and doing things like typing this out and checking versions.

And it flickers awfully on the new installation so is unusable. What should I do? I'm typing this on my Macbook Pro with M3 Pro & Macos Sequoia 15.2, which is not running Tahoe as it bricks all the Adobe software on the laptop. I refuse to rent Photoshop and Premiere for the exhorbitant price Adobe charge, and am transitioning to DaVinci products but not yet done learning.

I have cleared all caches, reset all the hardware acceleration stuff to off or force-disabled, and done everything else suggested by any and every AI agent, like switch off Widevine for a bit then on, or stop UBlock0 running in any way, shape or form. Things change when such things are done but don't work.

TODAY'S (NEW-ish) ISSUE: - Multiple times per day I Click the Yellow button Top Left Bar to shrink and put App in dock to open again later. When I re-Large FireFox shows EMPTY FireFox Bar like I "Quit". Each time need to go to History and RE-OPEN ALL TABS??????

  1. 2 within THIS text box just now, I highlighted the words: "Today's Issue" and clicked BOLD - instead it added a 2nd set of parenthesis???? WTF?

Browser is open all day. Always multiple tabs open/signed in, Paid & non-paid Apps, Email boxes, Wix, etc, many website tabs up, I do a lot of "research" - to pay my $rent and/or live my life using this "tool". Is my typical behavior. IN THE MIDDLE OF DOING WORK - I need to fix re-load Firefox again and again. . . Interrupted, distracted, observe, deal with so many Tech failures every day from ALL brands, I am struggling to keep my "life" functioning.

470+ issues/articles counted in the 11 subject boxes - in HELP section. FOUR HUNDRED-SEVENTY.

Thank you to "Volunteers" responding to help / issues!! Do you do any MENTAL help volunteering? kc
