Firefox tab crashes on a specific website
Hi,
i am having a rather weird and persistent issue. When I try to open a specific website, namely www.westend61.de, this Firefox tab crashes, as seen in the provided screenshot. With a normal website this wouldn't bother me so much, but this page is the main page of the company I work for, and therefore I and potential customers must be able to reach it. That being said, this does not necessarily have to be a Firefox problem, the issue could also be on the server side. But the website works on other computers, other operating systems and other browsers. As far as I know, the website works fine, this computer using this browser being the only exception. I worked my way through the Firefox support page:
- checked for newer firefox version - checked for newer compatible MacOS version - checked for newer graphics driver - disabled all firewall, anti virus software - started firefox in Safe Mode - reinstalled firefox & deleted all profile data - disabled hardware acceleration - set webgl.disabled to true - again safe mode
The tab crashes every time. This computer is an old End 2013 iMac running Catalina and the newest Firefox. - More information can be found in the troubleshooting information and the crash report: 97386afb-99eb-4102-ab4f-3947b0210521
Thank you very much.

As a quick workaround I now downgraded firefox to version 87.0 and everything works like a charm. But this issue should still be solved for upcoming firefox versions.

This could possibly be a font issue.
