Pretty interesting analysis from TechAltar about Mozilla usage and revenue trends, which aren't as dire as they're often made out to be, but how the search placement deal with Google is indeed endangered, which may be pushing them to their recent embrace of adtech as a new revenue source

Are you on a lower specced device? I notice it can have high resource usage at times

I've had this issue on several Pixel devices - I most recently had this exact issue on my Pixel 6 Pro, but I think recent-ish Firefox updates resolved some of the issues.

In my case, Firefox would lockup, but I could easily switch to another app without an issue. I would have to kill the Firefox app to get it responsive again.

Been a few years since I bothered. But, no never was. It was used on a Nexus S, Nexus 5, Nexus 10, and a Samsung Tab S3. All when they were new devices.

The Tab S3 was the last attempt years ago, but after so many attempts and fails, I just moved on.

And if it had been a low spec device issue, the system would freeze, not the app only.
