Whenever i send a Tab from any Device to a Linux Desktop, the Linux Desktop is almost guaranteed to freeze. It doesn’t matter if that Linux Desktop is my "Dingus" PC with 2GB RAM and Wayland, or my "Workstation" PC with 16GB RAM and X11. On both Desktops, Firefox runs smoothly until it gets sent a Tab from another Device, then the whole Linux Desktop freezes. The Desktop doesn’t slow if i open the Tab on the Desktop in the “Tabs from other Devices” Sidebar instead.

Only my Linux Desktops freeze when they get sent a Tab from another Device. Android doesn’t slow when my Phone gets sent a Tab from another Device.

I just noticed this Post landed in the “Firefox for Android” Category. As a first‑Time Support Forum User, i didn’t know the mobile Versions of Firefox have their own Categories. May a Moderator please move this Post to the Firefox for Desktop Category?

After some more Testing, this may be more a YouTube Problem than a Firefox Problem.

My Workstation freezes when it gets approx 20 YouTube Tabs at once, my Dingus has a high Chance of freezing when it gets just one YouTube Tab.

Most other Websites, which are much better‑optimized for all Devices, do not risk freezing my Linux Desktops after they get them from “Send to Device”.
