FF has for me crashed more times in the last week than in the previous year. - Multiple installs on different Linux systems. The last crash was with a clean profile.

And then there's the disappearing dev tools - that's fun.

EDIT: I hope that there is something weird with my systems. But I fear that the rush to push this out might have been a little hasty.

EDIT EDIT Apart from the crashes the new FF has been nice. I've been able to largely stop using chromium for dev work - so not all is bad.

You can go to "about:crashes" to get some more information about reported crashes. If you open a crash report and click the "Bugzilla" tab, you can find out if a bug is on file for that specific stack trace.

Cool. I'll check this out next time. Any way to report the disappearing dev tools?

I have been using Firefox for several months, using Windows 10, and several GNU/Linux distributions, different hardware, etc., and have never experienced a crash.

It's definitely something weird to do with your systems, meaning it's a real bug that you are experiencing, and I am not.

So please share crash reports, and file bug reports. Different hardware/software quirks may reveal bugs in Firefox/Linux/drivers/window managers/anything. By submitting a bug report for Firefox, you may be able to help find a video driver bug, etc.

Had one on FF Android but none on Linux since 57 release or in FFDE.

I’ve had several FF crashes as well, but to be sure when I opened the same pages in Safari, it crashed as well.
