screen shot of frozen firefox window

Firefox hangs sometimes when filling in text fields. This happens to me since
the Tumbleweed update to GNOME 44. I've seen it about 6 times now, perhaps once
every 2-3 work days. I'm using GNOME/X11.

I've observed this with GitHub several times, and also with SUSE bugzilla.

There's no core dump. Firefox is not hogging the CPU when it hangs. The only
messages in the journal are these, probably generated after I clicked on "Force
Quit":
