I usually use firefox to download things, and watch videos, however, sometimes, when I change tabs, try to minimise firefox, close a pop up, even if I just pause a video, it randomly decides to instead completely freeze and require the app to be completely restarted, and it occasionally decides to roll back my search history.
In fact, Firefox crashed as I was writing this, i'm lucky my progress was saved, these issues have made firefox completely unusable about 70%-80% of the time, and i'm running out of browsers to switch to, opera is run on lies, chrome is just bad, and now firefox is dying.
Just for reference, no other application or web browser that has ever been on my current device has ever acted like this, I'm currently using a decent PC running Windows 10

Why do I have to keep signing up with you? What causes this? I"m happy with your service yet periodically, I keep getting transferred to Windows because Mozilla is not responding when I attempt to log on. Then it is necessary to go through the whole process of signing up again. Please bear in mind I am not computer literate. Thank you.

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.
My Firefox tabs keep crashing. No help with all the classic Troubleshooting Steps. Please help
How can I stop FIREFOX from continually crashing?

You updated your browser on my pc today. Now I can’t open it. It opens but has not opened any sites. I’ve had to use bing. I’ve used your browser for several years but unfortunately I’ve not been able to. It locks up when I try to open YouTube. The blue circle starts and locks up. Too bad.

I've been using Firefox on Linux since it was Nautilus. Currently running EasyOS Linux Daedalus and Excalibur on different Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny Core i3-8100t boxes and different drives: A good Samsung SSD and two good flashdrives. 32G new RAM installed on each box. I've been using these boxes for over a year. For the last month or so, ever since updating to v. 146 my tabs have been crashing like crazy! I don't normally have more than 10 tabs open at once. But now, as soon as I open a 5th tab it crashes.
I'm running Top to watch CPU and RAM usage. I see nothing unusual. I've rebooted. Disabled all add-ons and run in Troubleshoot mode. Tabs still crash. My only add-ons are uBlock Origin, Temporary Containers and Dark Mode. It happens whether I have hardware acceleration turned on or off. I don't know what else to try. Here are my most recent crash reports. I hope you can figure out the problem. Thank you so much!

Hello. I had been experiencing a lot of freezes, hang ups, and disconnectivity with crash messages asking me to either restart Firefox, or quit firefox ! I finally just recently downloaded again from your website and in order to function it defaulted to Safe Mode. How do I correct this ? Note: The website is currently operational but not at 100% ! When in Settings nothing can be done and it advises that it's because it's in Safe Mode ! How do I correct this ?

1. i believe ur updating crashes my window 11 desk top
2. While i'm watching youtube, doing word processing (.txt) or when i set the PC to 'Sleep' mode,
my screen either freezes w the display or turns black. In both cases, my mouse and keyboard
won't work. Thus, i have to re-boot to fix. Even Control-Alternate-Delete won't work to get out
3. Request not to keep on showing your pop-up window at top RH corner saying:
Update Available
Download the latest ...
<Download> <Dismiss>
Hey, either one of those two buttons won't stop blocking my top RH corner of the screen. It's rediculous.
Even after i hit <Download>, the same pop-up shows up again n again. Same w <Dismiss>.
Just remind me once per week. And don't crash my PC!!!
4. There is no 'Community' info on this annoying update pop-up problem. Just stop it!
Pls investiate n reply via my email.
Thx

Hello,
I've been having this problem recently on Windows 11 with Firefox, where switching my input language to japanese (ALT + SHIFT keys) causes the browser to crash immediately. This happens about half to one third of the times I do it. It didn't happen before and I'm rather confused.
Searching on Google brought up a few similar experiences, such as this one, but the suggested fix (switching intl.tsf.enable to false on the about:config page) didn't work for me.
Any help is appreciated! Thank you very much in advance 😊

is anyone else having issues with this POS browser shutting down unexpectedly FREQUENTLY for NO reason. I thought the first dozen or so times it was updates, but only once or twice there was mention of new feature. I am SO over it and think Chrome with it's risks IS the smarter move
