Update #2:

It wasn't exactly fixed. Just that, there are some sites that are now affected, and the initial sites I tested are now fine.

It's like switching to Wayland only changed which sites are hanging-up / crashing.

This time I can't open any of Amazon's websites, I can't use Google search (just for testing), and other sites.

Update:

First of all, thank you for the replies and suggestions! It helped! *salute*

* Tried safe mode, everything works fine. But without safe mode (from a fresh reinstallation and profile) the issue keeps happening.
* Tried disabling hardware acceleration, and the hang-up and crash took longer to occur.
* I enabled Wayland in Pop!_OS 22.04 (since it's disabled by default) and switched to it, FF 116 b8 with hardware acceleration started to work smoothly. (Without hardware acceleration it's lagging.)

There probably is something that is no longer working fine between Firefox 116 b8 + libEGL + X11.

I guess it's time to move to Wayland.

PS Though I still can't open `about:support`. But, for now, everything else is working fine.

Something is wrong with 116 b8 under 22.04.

It keeps hanging, or crashing, when there are interactions.

What I've tried:
* Uninstall Firefox
* Delete all profiles
* Delete all cache
* Reboot
* Install Firefox
* Test from a fresh installation, Without any customizations and addons/extensions.
* Disabled HTTP3 (which was the issue for a similar case a year ago).
* No, I don't have popcorntime installed (which is/was an issue for .)
* I'm using not Wayland.

Other information:
* I can't even login to . After entering my password, the tab just stops working. It stops interacting. No clicks, no tabbing, no arrow cursor.
* I can't event open `about:support` it hangs.
* I can't use , eventually the tab will stop interacting. No clicks, no tabbing, no arrow cursor.
* I can't watch videos on . If the YT ads play first, it will get stuck there. If the actual video plays first, after a few seconds it will either get stuck at some frame, or just keep playing without any interaction (can't stop, etc.)

My device:
* Pop!_OS 22.04 which is / based.

This is totally out of my league. I don't know what else to test.

So, I switched to as my primary for now. It is a -based browser from .

Oh, one more thing, when I close Firefox, it pops-up an error that it crashed. Since the 116b8 update, Firefox just kept on crashing when closing.
