Although that's from yesterday, that's a separate issue, browsing wasn't working for any site.

In this case the Reddit servers are responding with a 403

> Firefox has witnessed outages recently

How does a browser experience "outages"? Uh... In my mind it is just a tool and any outage would have to be on the part of the server/website I am trying to browse.

It hit a bug that causes it to busyloop. It would do that even if you don't visit any site. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29918052

None of that is working for me, I think it's a different issue.
