♦ Fuego ♦ Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Today anytime I try to open the Ex-C forums with Firefox 61, it crashes. Anyone else using FF and having this issue? It gives me the "Gah! Your tab just crashed" message, and if I turn off that feature, it crashes the whole browser. I'm posting this from Chrome. It's been fine up to today. I let it auto-submit the crash to Mozilla (several times). The main site opens fine. I also tried "refreshing" FF by disabling all add-ons and creating a new profile. Crasharoonie.

Super Moderator florduh Posted July 7, 2018 Super Moderator Share Posted July 7, 2018 Maybe I'll take a look. I gave up on Firefox years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♦ Fuego ♦ Posted July 8, 2018 Author Share Posted July 8, 2018 I'm considering doing so. I did a fresh install and got the same thing. Oddly, it's been working fine until today. Maybe the new version is doing something stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Moderator florduh Posted July 8, 2018 Super Moderator Share Posted July 8, 2018 Nah, I don't even want to open Firefox to look. Why poke the hive? I guess it works fine for lots of people, I'm just not one of them. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♦ Fuego ♦ Posted July 14, 2018 Author Share Posted July 14, 2018 It seems to be the latest version of FF 61 on Linux. Earlier versions work fine, as does Chrome. I like FF for all of the ad-blocking and add-ons for clearing crap out of Facebook. Ah well, now I know it isn't the sites that are doing anything differently, just lousy programming on the part of Mozilla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♦ Fuego ♦ Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 I dropped back to 59 on Linux, told it from the install to not call home for updates, and it is stable and working fine. Mozilla has a cow over anyone recommending this, but their latest version on Linux crashes all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
