For several weeks every time I try to download an attachment (docx, pdf, jpg) from gmail, Firefox freezes and I have to force quit firefox. I'm on a 2019 Mac with 16 GB RAM and 512 SSdisk, running Macos 12.4 (Monterrey). I keep hoping the next firefox update will fix the problem but I just did another without success. Computer rebooted multiple tijmes. Solution is always just go to Chrome and it works no problem. Thx, Richard
