Facebook will not load on my Macbook pro anymore.

I've been using Facebook on my Mac for many years, no problems.

About 2 months ago, it stopped loading: "Gah, your tab crashed."

I went through all the self-help tips, clearing add-ons etc, clearing cache, making sure Firefox and IOS are up to date, etc., nothing works.

I've now migrated to Safari but miss Firefox.

Go to about:crashes in the address bar, submit any recent pending crash reports related to the issue and share the report IDs here.

Does it still happen in Troubleshoot Mode?

'Does it still happen in Troubleshoot Mode?'

Yes. I've tried everything that's been offered in the self-help suggestions.

Any messages in the Browser Console that look related?

"Any messages in the Browser Console that look related?"

No. I'd never heard of the Browser Console before, but followed the instructions on the link you provided and did a search for Facebook, and there were no returns.

I did it on the crash screen, which reads, as always:

"Gah. Your tab just crashed. We can help! Choose Restore This Tab to reload the page."

And when I hit reload, it goes back to the desktop, not Facebook.

Again, Facebook worked perfectly on Firefox for.. ten years? Now, I cannot even access it.
