Firefox ESR 140.6.0 on debian 12.12 locks up the entire system (not crashing) randomly when browing random websites (reddit etc)

So I'm on Firefox ESR 140.6.0 on debian 12.12 but I've noticed this problem with firefox in general (earlier versions) on Linux. When I am browsing with a few tabs open (4gb of memory on this laptop) suddenly on reddit or some random website, quite at random, everything freezes and I have to restart the laptop.

Crash reporter doesn't start because the tab doesn't crash instead the entire laptop freezes - it happens only in firefox. How do I debug this problem? I think for some reason firefox gobbles up all my memory perhaps and that causes Linux to lock up.

What do I do about this - it is quite frequent and frustrating but random - I can't say exactly when or on what site this will happen.
