Anyone seeing the same problem? It’s the first time ever I have a browser on Nightly and Linux… and it’s broken.

I haven’t run moz regression yet, but I’m curious any other lemmy user got same problem?

Thank you

    A nightly build is expected to be very unstable and is just for checking the changes developers do. If you are not interested in checking the latest/changes of the day then go for beta which is slightly more reliable or go for fully stable.

    I’m testing Zen browser at the moment, if you want to give that a try.

      Yes, but as someone supporting firefox, I do test it using nightly (to gather the error logs and running moz regression, as a way to contribute back to free browser offered by Moz).

      I already use zen, and it’s not my taste, sorry. (It crash much more than nightly on my machine, so I left it be, keep using official build of firefox).

    Not to add ambiguity, but i’m dealing with a similar issue with ESR where if even the laptop display turns off for an extended period of time, on wake, the CPU usage spikes and I have to SIGTERM/15 Firefox to get it to recover. I was debating migrating from ESR to latest, however I also suspect there could be something system wide going on as Signal desktop is also having an issue refreshing after wake as well. The thing that’s baffling me is that I supposedly have all power management (while plugged-in) disabled so I’m not sure what’s going on. This is on a stable Kali Purple build with default XFCE DE, i5 and 16GB.

      Hmm. interesting. Thanks for confirming. I think I will need to fire up moz regression for this.

      I haven’t check the logs result. It seems I really need to check the error logs
