We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

Hi sk54720, You might want to try this suggestion from a similar thread: (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1264283)
@cor-el said: This could be a problem with the WebRender feature. You can check the about:support page (Graphics) to see whether WebRender is active.
Try to set this pref to false on the about:config page.
gfx.webrender.picture-caching = false
Close and restart Firefox after modifying this pref for the change to take effect If this didn't help then modify this pref as well and restart Firefox.
gfx.webrender.force-disabled = true
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/about-config-editor-firefox
