In firefox nightly on MacOS, when clicking away from a tab or creating a new tab, the last tab that was focused will no longer render once it is refocused. I couldn't figure out how to recreate the behavior 100% of the time in every tab, but I managed to get it working with youtube always. When viewing a video, open a new tab or navigate to another tab, then click on the tab with the video. Instead of youtube, you will see a blank page with a spinning loading wheel in the center. Reloading the webpage does not fix it. On Mac, switching to another workspace then switching back fixes it. In addition, exiting picture-in-picture mode seems to force the page to re-render. Closing the tab then reopening the tab from history also forces it to re-render. Because of this, I believe it to be something to do with compositing or maybe just rendering in general.
Here is a video of the issue as well. Please excuse my youtube recommendations. :)

Thanks for filing, let's track it in bug 1719328. It seems the front-end is not setting the tab as active and a patch of mine made it (correctly, I guess, for some definition of correctly) stop rendering.
