2020 iPhone SE
iOS 14.3
Firefox 30.0

STR:

  1. Make Firefox the default system browser
  2. Install Weedmaps
  3. Uninstall Apple Maps (yes, you can actually do this)
  4. Launch Weedmaps, search for a dispensary, tap their address and wait for Firefox to open ∞ tabs so fast that you can't power off the device or swipe the app away (sometimes you can, but this is effectively causing a DOS against the device)

I would love to do a screen recording but it takes so long for Firefox to crash that the screen recording app uses up more storage than I have, thus causing other issues.

Thanks for the feedback. This a duplicate of https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/7466.
