Add-ons don't work, and tabs crash, since update to F36

$ dnf list installed | grep firefox firefox.x86_64 100.0-4.fc36

Since upgrading to Fedora 36, Firefox seems to have stopped being stable at all. Having any add-ons enabled causes webpages to frequently break. Even in troubleshooting mode, I get a tab crash immediately on start, and infrequently during later browsing.

Troubleshooting mode has the same issues, trying a completely clean profile has the same issues. Chromium works with no issues.

Some of them are after I've messed about with my video drivers, to no change.

I am currently using my system repo - Source  : firefox-100.0-4.fc36.src.rpm Repository  : @System From repo  : updates

I'll give the official server download a try and report back.

Welp, looks like the official download version 100.0.1 works perfectly! Guess I should be more patient for an update from the repo. Really pleased to have my sweet sweet addons back.

Thanks for the assistance!
