Not sure what is going on, but over the past few weeks I've been having recurring issues with Firefox freezing up requiring restart (of the app).
Seems to happen when I have multiple tabs open but no particular sites that I've noticed. Multiple updates have come through.
I'm on windows 11, using privacy badger, unlock origin, one password and the capital one shopping app (disabled most of the time).
I'm working on setting up a shop for selling my art on squarespace so I'm on there a lot. I'll be in the middle of editing something and then it stops responding and I get the pop-up asking me to wait or close the app. Waiting has never worked so I just close and restart. It also can't reopen my tabs when I restart so I have to do that manually.
I've tried reinstalling it. I've cleared out the cache though it's set to do that at closing anyway. Nothing works. This happens randomly, not every time I open the browser.
Does this sound like anything you are experiencing? Any ideas on other things I should try to fix it?
I don't open anything Google unless absolutely necessary so I generally don't have Gmail open for long but I'll keep that in mind. Maybe I've forgotten about it and left it open sometimes this has happened.
I've also wondered about ubo and privacy badger. Wanted to try pb for a while and I've found I end up having more issues with ubo blocking Javascript (which is my settings not the extension I know) than I've noticed with pb. But I'll try running with each one separately for a while and see if that helps.
