Firefox 116.0.1 for OSX, tabs keep crashing

Hi,

After updating Firefox to 116.0.1 my tabs keep randomly crashing. I get some crash reports *occasionally* - meaning not all crashes produce a crash report - but I'm not sure what to do with them, they seem inconclusive. The last report (not for the last crash, though, which didn't produce any report) is bp-3334b934-58b5-4226-887a-235300231117

A tab crash (Gah. Your tab just crashed) can be hard to troubleshoot if you do not get the crash reporter. Did you try to reboot the computer ?

No. However, as soon as I upgraded again - to 119.0.1 - the issue vanished, so it probably was a bug. To be clear, I haven't rebooted in between, last time I rebooted was 29 days ago.

Quite ridiculously, even the tab on about:crashes keeps crashing.

Does it still crash in Troubleshoot Mode?

Yes, tabs crash in Troubleshoot mode as well. Not only that, in troubleshoot mode some tabs misbehave (some videos won't play, audio missing, controls missing, etc.)
