This happens at random intervals, mostly when firefox is being left idle.
Since it starts >1000 threads, it easily fills ram and swap, then get killed by OOM killer. Hence no crash reports.
I'll upload a gist with OOM details from dmesg and journalctl, if there is a way to get debug info for this, please let me know.
For some reason, I cannot access my email account. Previously, at various times it shows someone else is on my account. How can I prevent that also?
I can not log in to my at&t e-mail account on Firefox. I can log in using Google Chrome. I cleared cached and have been having trouble since I did that.
Can you tell me how to turn off 2 step verification for Facebook in Firefox. UbiKey 5 Nano no longer works. I'm pretty sure port is broken.

Almost every site I go to with Firefox I get a "Warning This site has been reported as phishing". It can be a .gov site, a state DMV, or almost 90% of the sites I go to. How do I stop this other than to start using Chrome all the time, which I do not have this issue?

Last night I was on the 'Next.co.uk' website - I remember having to set up a new password because I had forgotten my old one, they sent a link to change it and then everything went wrong. I kept getting the message shown in the attached screenshot. This was on Firefox, tried Chrome and Safari using my Macbook Pro - same message came up again and again. Then tried my phone, same thing. Tried my husband's laptop, same again. I've read several articles but it's so complicated. I tried clearing the cookies & data for the website but it's still there. I'm not using a VPN.
I've also noticed a changed with my emails too, I used to be able to click on a link within my email and it would take me directly to a website but now I just get a blank firefox page.
Please can anyone help - I wanted to return an item to 'Next' but can't do it online as can't get onto their website.
Suddenly, YouTube thumbnail images vanished on my mac laptop but still appear in Safari. Is this due to an extension? How can see them again?

Within the last day (not sure exactly when) when I try to open Firefox with an external link and there is no existing window, it opens but seems to ignore the link itself. If I then try the external link again with the new window that was opened the first time it will open a new tab and display the link. Up till now it has been working fine and I've made no changes to Firefox for a while, though I do see that my Firefox was updated at about 2am on August 30, two days ago, from version 116.0.3 to 117.0.
I'm running MacOS 13.5.1 Ventura. I did just update that from MacOS 13.5 Ventura. Unfortunately I only noticed this after that update and do recall this Firefox problem occurring before I looked closely enough to know what was happening (that feeling you get when you feel like something is different but you don't quite know what) so I don't know if it only began after the MacOS update.
I did play around with:
browser.link.open_newwindow , browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external , and browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction
settings to see if they might make a difference but nothing fixed the problem. But I restricted myself to settings that seemed likely and haven't checked out every possible combination.
If I wasn't brain dead just now I'd try to give more info but just can't. Sorry. Thanks for your help.

I see no way to set the system-wide default zoom to 70% as each time I do so and reboot, it is reset to 100%
This is, sadly, extremely frustrating after 3 decades of happily using FF.
Brave does it right.
With all respect, why not FF?
Your thoughts, please.
