Since v 106 (so that and 107), firefox crashes when I choose screenshare and select a single window.

Technical details:

I'm using

- https://meet.jit.si/ - Firefox 106/107 developer edition from .AppImage file - Ubuntu 22.04 + Gnome + Wayland - MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 - pipewire (I believe) for screensharing via OS.

I'd love to get back to using Firefox, as I'm forced over to Chromium at the mo!

Firefox appimage and Wayland... Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

I have a similar problem. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.1 and the Firefox Snap version 106.0.5. I was using link text integrated with Moodle 4.0, hosted on Moodlecloud.

I tried to open a single window and Firefox crashed. The crash report Pipewire.

I hope that helps in figuring out what is going wrong.

Thank you!
