Things about the new Firefox browser for Android

I've been using the nightly builds of Firefox Preview for a couple of weeks, and it supports the extension I need the most (uBlock Origin). The new preview is so much faster than the old Firefox for Android I probably won't need to buy a new phone for another year or two. I like the UI changes, too.

Me too, but does yours crash all the time like mine does or is that something with my phone?

For me it did a few updates ago, now it's pretty much stable. I really do like this release and i can live with not all extentions being enabled on the nightly, but for releasing this to stable users i would think they should first fix the extentions.

For the last few days for me, Firefox Preview Nightly crashes almost immediately but Firefox Preview is still stable. My understanding is that Preview picks up changes from Preview Nightly every two weeks.

Yes, I follow Android's prompt to report the crashes.

I don't see them listed in about:crashes though, so I'm unsure how to follow up about them.
