Starting about 2 or 3 months ago, I started to 1) uses multiple Firefox profiles and 2) after using one of the profiles, exiting Firefox. I have one profile where I do all my non-anonymous interactions (sites were I do not want to clear particular cookies after each interactions) and the a couple other profiles (news sites; quick lookup/one or two tabs/single purpose; information (web sites I've not finished looking at)). For "non-anonymous" profile, I every day or so remove all data associated with all but a few selected sites. For all the "anonymous" profiles I do a shift-ctl-delete prior to exiting and remove all data. For the past year? or so I had issues with (KDE) Wayland (new Wayland user): freezing, high cpu usages, etc. It turned out that all the issues went away if I used Firefox sparingly: never let it run when I was not using it and clearing it all the time. I also do a: ps auxwww | grep firefox maybe once a day just to make sure there is no Firefox process running in the background. Richard On 6/22/24 8:16 AM, Steve Underwood wrote:
Is anyone else having problems with Firefox on FC39 with XFCE recently? After rock solid operation for a long time, in the last 2 or 3 weeks the UI has been fouling up every day or two when I do some seemingly mundane operation in Firefox. A couple of times Firefox has crashed after a few seconds. The foul ups sometimes only affect the Firefox windows, and other windows still work OK. Sometimes the whole desktop fouls up, and I have to switch to a text only screen and kill Firefox. That restores normal desktop operation for all the other windows.
