Firefox just froze. I can't remember the last time this sort of thing happened. I went to "View Desktop", and after that i could not get Firefox to display other than from the desktop toolbar Firefox icon mouse over with the cursor on the thumbnail. Had to end task in the Task Manager. No log in about:crash.

I've also noticed lately that at randoms times page transitions/link openings far take longer than expected or don't complete at all. I can't say it's related, but who knows.

I also reported a few days ago that Firefox is randomly not shutting down correctly, having to end task as well.

Has anyone seen this sort of behavior? _______________________________________________________ Windows 10 202h, Firefox 88.01
