Fedora 40 Firefox 100% CPU doing nothing and doesn't close unless killed
Anyone else have this issue? I thought maybe it was just my shitty surface pro 3 but it happens on my T530, T460s, and my desktop. I thought maybe it was an extension I had so I uninstalled them all except ublock. Still happening. For now I've just switched to librewolf and installed all the extensions I had on Firefox. Works fine and doesn't keep my CPU at 100% so problem solved I guess, but I'm still curious if anyone else has this issue?
I get this sporadically, probably once a week on average. Most of the time it seems to be caused by a specific tab and resolves itself after closing the tab (in my case Slack is the most common culprit).
something similar happens with Debian 12 currently, it's super obnoxious and has made me seriously reconcider using Firefox. It freezes all Firefox windows, you can close them but it no longer updates the icons as you hover, nor let's you do anything in Firefox, and if left unchecked will eventually hard crash plasma
