Steps to reproduce:

I launched firefox as usual. I had over 2000 tabs open

Actual results:

Firefox launched and loaded the tab i was in before, but did not let me switch tabs with my mouse. I was able to use control tab to switch, but after the first time, it stopped working. I cannot scroll through the tab list, the arrows to scroll through are missing. After restarting Firefox a few times, I was able to switch tabs sometimes and inconsistently. All my addons are missing. I was also able to close some tabs, but it was also inconsistent. It was hard for me to open google, because I couldn't use the bars on top, and when i selected text and right clicked, the "search google for" option was missing.

Expected results:

firefox works normally

By the way I'm doing this from chromium because firefox didnt let me sign in

More information: When I close firefox and try to reopen it too soon, the old firefox process keeps running but not responding.

When I run Firefox from console, i get this: (firefox:38701): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: 00:36:26.953: g_dbus_proxy_new: assertion 'G_IS_DBUS_CONNECTION (connection)' failed

Hi gedalya.aharon.l!
I was unable to reproduce this issue on latest Nightly version 84.0a1 (2020-10-26) on Ubuntu 18.04.
Could you please try on latest Nightly and tell us your input?. You can download it from here: https://nightly.mozilla.org/
Also, can you please attach the following information:

  • about:support data
    (Help > troubleshooting information > click "copy raw data to clipboard" button
  • about:memory
    Enter about:memory in the URL bar and press enter
    Click "Measure and save" (optionally with "anonymize" checked to hide URLs, although this will likely make it more difficult for us to figure out which site, if any, is causing the leak)
    Save the memory report somewhere and Attach the report to this bug
    I'll set the component to have a starting point for this issue. Please if it is not the right component feel free to change it.
    Thank you!
