I don't use KDE or Wayland - I use awesome-wm with X11. I don't get a lot of Firefox crashes but one odd behavior I have noticed is that sometimes, after closing all Firefox windows, the firefox process continues to run (unresponding) in the background.

When this occurs, clicking links results in no browser windows opening. At this point I run `killall -9 firefox` and oddly, in that very moment, the link I clicked will open up in Chromium.

No idea why this happens.
