Firefox crashes
Firefox started crashing yesterday or today, at first when browsing to specific sites (plex.tv desktop app, bringatrailer.com), later on more frequently, even in safe mode

Yes. Having TRR enabled (DNS-over-HTTPS) could be causing this issue https://www.ghacks.net/2018/04/02/configure-dns-over-https-in-firefox/
What is the value of this pref on the about:config page? Try to disable (0) this feature or try a lower value if it is currently 3
- network.trr.mode = 0

Here is some additional info:

(I got these after I had figured out that firefox crashes in safe mode when the Mozilla Crash Reporter is still running...)

FYI, I just remembered that I have enabled DNS over HTTPS recently - could this be linked? It seemed to work fine at first...

Hi cor-el,
This works! Value was at 2. Does this mean that DoH is still in alpha/beta phase for now? I used the link you provided when setting up DoH a couple of days ago.
Thanks a lot!!
