Hi Slade,

Thank you for your message.

No, I did not think that it was a problem with Firefox snap build 104.x 
or 105.0.1, because with the
older 5.19.x line of kernels it works perfectly, without any crashed 
tabs or refusing to start.

After a reboot of OS, Firefox works again, but only for a stochastic, 
undetermined amount of time.
Once it gets "Tabs crashed" errors, it is impossible to restart until 
the next reboot.

The non-snap Firefox 91.x esr so far did not exhibit this problem, but 
the testing results are insufficient.

Kind regards,
mt
